Here i go again on the bumpy ride

Gosh i dont believe i am blogging ;-). Wanted to do this from a long time but dont know why did i not do it.. going back to my topic

Travel time in Bangalore can be a real pain in ur back ;-). I work at a distance of 12 kms from my home and by principles of a near-so Metro city it should take me 15- 20 mins to reach home but alas i cant really pinpoint the actual time. The variants are pretty spread out.

I have chosen a new route to my house. It is a bumpy muddy road full of pot holes but i still prefer it because after a hard days work i feel so comforting passing by that road. The sides of the road are inhabited by people of the lower middle class families and their little joys and pleasures make me wonder if i am missing out something very important in life. Almost each of these families have an adopted street dog who goes in and out of the house with the confidence of an owner. Everyday i see the ladies of the house having pleasure in small little things of life.......Like in eating and sharing a bhutta (Corn) on a rainy day or sitting in groups and sipping tea while chatting, which makes me wonder almost everyday if it is really worth trading little things in life for some petty money!!!!!!!!!!
