Amritsar - Eat. Sleep. Pray

Image
Amristar Sep 2015 Quite an eventful trip it was. Although it was a weekend trip, it felt like I was there for a week. The trip was all about eating good food, sleeping well, and enjoying the blessed feeling of being around the Gurudwara :) The trip started on a hilarious and anxious note when I booked an Ola cab which was suppose to first pick my friend, followed by me and then drive us to the airport. Due to miscommunication, the driver finished the trip when he arrived at my place. Even though I was sitting in the cab, Ola app was assigning me a new driver (who was ~10 mins away) when I was trying to book again. The good part was that the current driver willingly helped us in coordinating with another driver, and dropped us halfway to the new assigned cab. The boarding had to start at 8:10, and at 7:30, we were still ~11 kms away from the T3 airport. The new cab was very dirty but all I wanted was to reach the airport. I knew we would reach at very last moment, but at least

Humans.

Going through some of the Humans of Pakistan & Humans of New York and similar pages, I found some gems:  "I don't know but hiding these mistakes right from childhood make an individual kinda introvert. Maybe. I guess the first step in 'opening' ourselves to the world is to let our parents know our mistakes rather than hiding it. And parents, too should be suggestive, directive and inspirating, not scolding." "After 16 yrs of marriage. I have learned love is never 50/50. Someone is always doing more or loving more but that does not mean both people do not love each other. It is a hard lesson to learn and accept." "You can not compare the two choices....people find meaning /purpose in their own way." "Fake it till you make it" "I had a faith. And I returned to it" "Givers have to set limits, because takers rarely do." "Remind me not to date anyone with rigid rules and zero Imagination"
