If I were having coffee with you ... post no. 13
So by some strange coincidence my
second post is also going to be having lot of coffee in it… so thank you Shilpa
and Deeps from whom I am borrowing this idea.
1) So
if I were having coffee with you today I would tell you how this weekend we
ventured out to my maasi’s house after a long time, her house is adjacent to a
very famous market in South Delhi but due to the latest money problem that is
going on, we actually did not go for shopping and it is a first in so many
years…
2) Also
I would have told you about the strange
soothing feeling that comes over me when I go visiting her, may be because I am
on a break from my daily chores and routine, may be because she lives in a
place where I had spent my growing up years, also because this is the most familiar and comfortable place
for me in Delhi, anytime.
3) I
would also tell you how I missed my grandmother when I was there, though I did
not talk about it to anybody, off and on a pang of sorrow just cut me through
especially because I could not really take my eyes off her brand new framed
photograph from which she looks at us kindly with her charming smile.
4) I
would also tell you that I went to the nearby temple which I used to visit
often when I used to stay very close by to that temple, in fact on the day of my
marriage I visited the temple at 4.30 am to get blessed by favourite deity on
the most important day of my life…
5) Well
then I would suddenly realise that I had been going all emotional with these
talks and so to make the talks a bit lighter I would tell you about the latest
jokes on whatsapp about Mr. Modi’s surgical strike on money matters !!
So after this wonderful coffee session, see you in a short while with today’s post… sigh!!
coffee is good medicine but i have none to offer on #3 as only time can heal that....
