so many feelings cluttering, happy, sad, teary eyed and gay... inside my heart. i cannot put them into words. all i can say is... that watch is no pay back.. no pay back compared to those in-numerous happy times.. no pay back to those vintage records of ghulam ali, hafiz ali khan, beghum akhtar... no payback to that old cream coloured ambassador car that dropped me school everyday.. no payback to that uncountable number of mango bite lozenges that would come out of that silk kurta whenever i wanted one...no payback dadu. This watch probably is just a sphere that shall hold all that time, ticking in your wrist, to the beat of your heart. Today's day has given me a bagful of pebbles... all "full circle" in shape.. yet hazy at their need to explain any definition to me.

Been smouldering a long time now, have you?
You are, as are we all, the little spark our elders have so painfully been banking on all these years. The light spontaneous burst of flames that our elders have been fanning all this while. Just so we may burn bright and independent someday.
God it seems, is all too familiar with the concept of 'poetic justice'. Things don't go one way here on Earth. What we were yesterday, our elders are becoming now. What our elders were then, we have started becoming now. Welcome to the other side :D
yup.. the otherside feels new. but intersting.
