An Unusual Morning in Mumbai!

Taking a jog, more often a walk at Queen’s Necklace made me realize one thing each morning, why can’t it be this quiet for the rest of the day? Within an hour of a morning stroll, I see Marine Drive teeming with scrambled screams of thousands of vehicles elbowing their way to the proposed destinations.


As soothing the long walks on tiled pathways going down the shore seem in the morning, as remains the desire to bottle it all up for a peaceful day ahead. That isn't possible in Mumbai! At least that is what I thought until one of my friends recently shifted to a place in South Mumbai called "Mahim."

On the Housewarming Ceremony, a bunch of us decided to stay the night. In the morning as my routine holds me as an early riser, I decided to trot my way in the neighborhood. To start with, I realized the morning in South Mumbai is different than my usual at Marine Drive. Mahim has a charming persuasion in its atmosphere. The first thing to witness was Bandra-Worli Sea Link subsuming in the sunrise with a welcoming serenity to lay eyes on! It is a perfect view to start one's day! It hardly feels like the sprinting and hasty mornings of Mumbai at Mahim. The calm and composed neighborhood, the few miles away convenience store and the harmonious walk glaring the sea-view made it worth a stay at Mahim! I know where I can be for random morning saunters!

Life is like a metro!

Life is like a metro,
Board a new journey,
Deboard at the desired station and stay for a while,
Strive and travel across the struggles to reach your goal,
Get along with strangers and sometimes, some of them entertain you for a while,
Some of them stay forever too (best friends)
Once you think, you have come far from home,
Once you think, you have lost your way,
Take the same metro to return to where you started,
Take the same metro to start anew.
Climb a new mountain,
Set a new destination,
Because
Life is like a metro.
