I was in port Blair from 3.7.2006 to 8.7.2006... had really enjoyed my stay there that was my first trip over the sea... and to Andaman Islands... later on i did enjoyed but somehow those memories of the first visits are still fresh in my heart... and today suddenly while i was digging out some of my paper i found a crippled note of my thoughts and feeling i had jotted down while being there... thought of posting it before I again put it some were not to be located easily.... ( As my gold chain and few important receipts are still missing!!!) the note is typed as it is here...."walking through the rocks... not so rocky actually... i realize the closeness.... being close to the one of the world strangest creation the HUGE SEA and nothing else all around... how tiny i felt.... standing in front of the sea which was touching my feet... the countless crabs coming and going with the waves and walking all over the sand... and on every wave i make my grip stronger so that i may not fall in water..
I am in Port Blair for the last 4 days for the first time in my life flew over the sea and came so far off from my home.... with Seema Misra. Its a different feeling thinking that i am at a place which was nothing except few tiny dots at the globe just to give the complete picture of Indian boundaries... but here the world is and that seems more close to Allah then Delhi or any other place... as the nature is here and its ever where....
Here every story starts with 'before tsunami'/'after tsunami'.... the young group of panchayat member(they call themselves captain) are feeling totally lost in absense of the older people who were not able to run fast and save their lives from the strong roaring water... the young leader are lost but i am sure they would get back to the normal life very soon... as the spirit is high and that's the only thing which brings in rest of the happiness for life.."
