Yes, I have been for some time thinking on like why is it that we get to know the value of a place(or of some person,in some case..DUHH!!) after we leave it.
Like hell i had been living at my home town for two years, and I didn even care to go beyond the same old road limit.
But, now after having left it, when i am only able to visit it once or twice(Consider lucky!!) that am able to come to full terms with actually i have left behind.
That's the light house, the light beam from which i used to follow on those silent and moonlit nights. It was fun stealing away those precious few moments from the treacherous night studies preparing for the board nd entrance exams. Yet I had never cared lest bothered to just push a few paddles(yess! i used a bicycle) and go that place.
Nohh, i wud rather sit with the books and gobble all the things up.
And later, after years perhaps, when I visited home, i took up the courage to find the time to go beyond the roads, believ me,another whole new norld world was unveiled to me, am not talking about discovery of the magnitude of Columbus!.But something new from my own perspective.
And well, yeah, i did drag one of my friend along. Guess couldn handle all the fun maself...!!
It was fun to ride along an all new and unknown road, didin even bother to ask where the road ultimately led to. We just drove on and on... And we did reach a very b'ful place. Alas i don't have the pics to share over here.
After that , I had made it a point to visit that place and the adjoining places every time i visited my home town.
I still wish I had known those little, less visited places earlier,it would have been SO great. Sighh..!! Whats gone cannot be brough back, but I hope to see the little places worth visiting where i am staying presently. Not that there is much time left at end of the day, nor is there enough time by sunday alone, but its that feeble and faint ray of hope that keeps us going.
Week, after week after week..
