Impressions

Impressions... Walking up Sravanabelagoa .. 500 plus steps ... TIRING but WORTH IT Having this 2 year old walk up the same steps up and down without help... GAWK Smell of fresh wet soil... as we cross through the green fields of Karnataka... REFRESHING Exploring the temples of Halebid and Belur.... NOSTALGIA Re reading History in the sculpted columns of Halebid and Belur... WONDER Driving in the night through heavy rains.... slashing at us in the highway ... ETHEREAL Watching two buses collide ... side to side ... HORROR Reading the rehashing of Hindu Muslim count in India... DISGUST Hearing an Astrologer... pointing the negative influences of planets... ACCEPTANCE Hearing the 2 year old boy repeating one words in three languages... as he tries to learn that word in Marathi, Assamese and English.... AMAZEMENT Dreaming about Hampi .... ANTICIPATION Waking up to a new day.... ENLIVENING
