While the week started off with the end to a wonderful trip to the city of dreams...it was full of eventful days and nights that add to the list of unforgettable memories of life..
Celebrating my mom's b'day amid close and extended family after 20 years was the main highlight of the week! :) Makes you realize how important is family and relatives and how good it feels to be among people who are your well-wishers and a part of you!
Falling and bruising badly of the domestic help....and spending 2 hours in the hospital with her...and praying for her to open her eyes...made me realize how vulnerable one is in the hands of mishaps.
Being hit by a truck at 10.30 in the night and then catching the fleeing truck driver and fighting with him for an hour...was the other incident that shook me...Though the extreme damage to the car made me angry and frustrated....I thanked God that only the car had dented and bruised ...and all of us were fine...especially because there were 3 kids in the car at that time!!
But thankfully, the week ended with a happy note ....with us hosting a surprise b’day dinner for a friend who had faced a tremendous tragedy recently...and would probably have spent the night alone... lost in memories of the past...The smile on her face...made me forget the rest of the unpleasantness that I had faced...
Just a manifestation of the saying...”Life is like that”... makes you realize...how a dull and boring life can seem appealing ... after going though one incident after the other!
So here I am ...waiting for everything to fall in its place...and go back to my day-to-day mundane routine... of going to office, coming back home, attending to household chores and shopping for groceries... seems far better than the recent happenings... :)
