Getting emotional is my forte but getting emotional when you are perched at 36000 ft is a milestone achievement for anyone. Throughout the nine hour flight I kept thinking about where my life had taken me, the memories, the bad times and the experiences. As I see a sea of candy floss below me, I try to recap through all the lessons that I have learnt. Seven years back when I first left home I was really timid and shy. I have changed in those years and although this is a new chapter in my life I am pretty confident about myself.
My best friend once told me I was wasting my time by going abroad. One day or the other we have to settle in Sikkim so why not start working towards it from now itself instead of going out and coming back again to start from zero. Honestly speaking, at that point I thought he was correct. I was going to come back sooner or later so maybe this wasn’t my wisest decision after all.
Those conflicting viewpoints went down the drain once I landed on British soil. Life back in India is totally different from what it is out here. I don’t know how successful I’ll prove to be but here is what I have been thinking- I want to roam the world on my own, be a smart independent woman who has the world at her feet. Tomorrow I may get tied down with other responsibilities but as of now I want to be able to fulfill the long desired ambitions and become the person I want to be.
No regrets whatsoever.
I totally agree that you should pursue your dreams and desires, while you are still young, contain vibrant energy and have the will to do it… Good luck there with all your endeavors henceforth :D
