Good Bye Bristol

February 27, 2009 · 6 Comments

It was the month of July, I guess, when I arrived here. Everything was a stranger. MUF was the only person I knew. I still remember getting out and looking around like a curious child. The times when I would miss my trains and get late for interviews, drop my phone into the hollow ceilings and all that stuff. I would always remember :)

MUF, I am grateful to you. You were my mentor. I have never lived on my own, without family. So for me, it was all new. You taught me everything … and then things got going slowly and gradually.

I made some new friends here, and discovered some old friends as well. I learned some lessons here, and re-called some previously learned lessons as well.

I saw life a bit closely; not much, but a little more than I did before. And its different.

I experienced how you can be lonely in the middle of a crowd, and how to make a gathering when you have nobody around.

I learned how to cry and how to laugh, when you are alone.

I realized what family means to your life. I saw what is it in a language. I discovered different prospectives of looking at the same thing.

This chapter of my life has been quite interesting. There has been a lot to it. Thanks MUF, thanks Bristol, and thanks everybody who has contributed to my  life.

Anyway … time to say good bye … I will miss you all.
