Hey Everyone..............Christmas is here........I know its gonna be a hell lotta fun for everyone. As you sit in your living room decorated with silvery garlands and random christmas miniatures all around the place. As you look around, a moderately tall christmas tree greets your eye froma salient corner of the room. You admire its beauty and recollect the multifold moments of stress you put into setting it up. Then in the opposite corner, you simply can't lift your eyes off the crib where Joseph and Mary tend to their little infant Jesus. Its all Perfect. And you simply cant stop praising yourself for the decorations.
Well That's what i would do every year , but this year i'm doin something totally different. I am in a hostel filled with boys, mostly christian, and am sitting in front of my laptop, typing away to glory. I gaze at my room in dreadful assuredness. Aahh........The plain, blue-coloured walls surround me, while I toast to my dear friend Neeraj Krishnan, with fresh-cold water, right out of the hostel cooler. Its all Perfect here too. Im listening to christmas carols, mind it, im listening to the same ones I used to listen to in salalah, just trying to assume that festive mood. Man, i still remember the detail going into decorating that crib at christmas. how Dad bought sand from the beach, how onu spent hours at setting the contours right, and how mom gave orders of shifting the furniture, from one end to the other.
Im not going to be at home this christmas, I know. But i am definitely going to enjoy it and take in the festive mood, even if I have to celebrate with my hostel mates.
