Lost and found - In which we see too much train travelling, mothers, worrying signs, makeup, moody friends and endless stories

I think certain places should have signals, or warning signs - Beware, phones will be unavailable from here on..or Beware, creepy men ahead..wear only sarees and don't wax or do your eyebrows..

I've gotten lost before, in andheri, in bandra, but never in Bhayandar...and that too at 10 in the night, definitely a freaky experience...And then journey back home where there were only 5 of us in the entire compartment..and the lights going on and off in dahisar...Freaky.

I realised how old my mother is after a long time today...how climbing stairs for her is an issue...so is getting down them, and even though she used my umbrella, i had a distinct image of 2 years down the line...with her holding a stick and walking..and i find it hard to believe.. that my mother - the champion of so many battles, the woman who walks to buy sabsi and has cooked for us for almost 22 years..is not so strong as i thought she was. In my head she is the same as last year, or the year before that..till all the years are just burnt in my memory and i can no longer distinguish between them. Time strikes us all...

So i plan to be a good daughter, which means doing all that medical science and prayer can help...but what about the change from within? Will that be too late? Is it too late? I'd like to think no, that every day counts and i can help her....

Funny how we get so caught up in our lives that we forget the constants..the ones who change without never seeming to...

I've been talking to too many people about my relationships lately...23rd bday is approaching..pretty soon it will be 30 and then 40 and then life is over..not in terms of relationships only..but in terms of what to do...how much to live..when to live..

We spend all our days in planning....trying to find that one moment which will make us feel alive..trying to create it..what if that moment is passing you by? and you know you can never get it again!

Be a meteor, blaze out before you strike..the crater is the next generation's headache :)
