While I sit in the comfort of my brother's room and keep flipping through every astrology related account on twitter, I don't know if I am being ignorant of the world around me or actually being wise by choosing not to pay attention to all the hullabaloo. Yesterday, the second half of the wedding season in Sikkim officially kicked off with the union of a childhood friend with the love of her life Cheesy, I know but that is exactly what it meant to her :)) It was a simple and quiet affair and I liked the food and gathering. Not too much. Not too less. Just the right balance.
As we sat chatting in the living room, my senior and I were discussing how tedious it had become to attend marriages now since the talk almost always revolved around when is it going to be your turn?.Between preparing for an upcoming examination and feeling satisfied with my current accomplishments, it felt like I was finally in a good place in life so such questions didn't really matter or mean much now. Unfortunately, this myth was washed away by a single phone call earlier this evening. A very unexpected couple had decided to tie the knot. Although tomorrow it is going to be just a first step in the same direction, I was surprised with the news. How do people make such decisions? It really amazes me that there are so many out there who seem confident enough to take the next step. I am nowhere in that league.
So, this means that not far this winter, or the summer maybe, I will have another invite being written for me. Welcome to the world of a confused twenty something year old where everyday is indeed a winding road. Surprises galore!
