another august day, another heavily overcast, rainy day, a day when the rain simply refused to stop! Relentless, merciless downpour, but Mumbai has learnt from its mistakes. Mumbai moves on. apart from a few trains picking maximum of 15 minute delays, no cancellations, no stoppages, no water-logged tracks. suprising, considering the rain today. i caught the usual local train, @ its scheduled time, and reached home as scheduled, 7:30 as usual.
7:30. how wonderful to reach home @ this time, how so lovely. considering that i live @ shahad, 60 km from mumbai, considering that only half of the local trains of central railway go there, considering that only four months ago my regular time of return to home was a late, late 11:30 pm !!! i have got my life back. i m in control, total control. and aah, its so wonderfully refreshing to catch local trains early in the morning, as early as 6:24 am. there is so much more space, so much more freedom of movement. why, oh why, just why was i so stupid upto four months ago. i have moved on, i have learnt my lesson.
