There are some people in our lives who are never away…. you may meet or even talk to them after months or years…but it feels the same… as if you partied together just yesterday! Similarly, there are such places…you might visit them after years…but everything feels just the same!
And that’s what I feel for my blog right now. I know I’ve been away for quite sometime but it feels no different. I still feel the same connect with all my friends here π
Well… to be very honest, I have no reason for being away…in fact, I had been free all this while…but just didn’t feel like writing anything! So updates first… I quit my job, went to Delhi for sometime where my Mom had a spine surgery, came back to Bangalore, job hunting, a trip to Chikmaglur, on the verge of getting a job, waiting for my b’day! π
Mom had a spine surgery in late June… it was one of the toughest times of my life… mentally! The moment she came back from the OT in the room… that was the scariest sight…. it shook me… I was numb…I couldn’t move…I couldn’t speak for a few seconds…I wonder if I was even breathing or not… and 30 seconds later, the nurse tells me that I’ve to help her in shifting Mom from one bed to another…and I regained consciousness…and helped her….
Not that I have never seen anyone in that condition before that…I’ve seen people in situations much worse than that…but never my Mother….the lady who is epitome of strength for me…was lying there…half conscious – unable to move, unable to breath without an Β oxygen mask, unable to speak… she had to make effort to even keep her eyes open for sometime… She has been my strength always… how could I be strong with her in this condition… but then I thought…now is my turn..to be her strength…and never did any sight or anything frighten me again! And I’m glad how I handled myself and everything else while I was there… I think I can be proud of myself for that!
And the best compliment – Mom one day said – “And I always thought you were fragile!”
Yes..you are finally back! Now the good times will begin again at thoughtcourt.
So first thing first..howz your Mom now? Must have been tough time..and its commendable that you handled it with great strength and conviction.Kudos to you lady.
It always happen with us Sakshi..when we see someone very close to us in the such state. I went numb when I saw my brother in coma many years back (He is absolutely fine now)..but that thought still haunts me.
So here are some good wishes from my side. You will surely get the job..wish you all the success. By the way when is your birthday? Keep us posted.
Great to see you back lady!
Yes Amrit…good times are gonna roll in now π Thanks for your wishes!
Its quite a coincidence that you ask for my b’day today…. it actually happens to be tomorrow π
So its celebration time tomorrow!!! π π
