From about 2 months back only ... I was not looking forward to this trip. I dont know why ... I had an intuition that all will not be well at the end of the day ... but still I had to come. Like a foolish person I had made bookings in advance which could not be cancelled. Reasons were many because of which i was apprehensive of this trip ... probably the main one was I would be missing Diwali ... This would be the third Diwali I would not be at home ....
Apart from that ... the company ...Frankly, I had my doubts .. how much would I be able to enjoy with the kind of company I have here ..... and then to top it all ... I fell ill !! Very Very ill ... I was not well for almost three weeks . ... 3 weekends I was in bed ... and my position was particularly bad one day before trip ... Papa mummy were worried like anything ....
Finally, I came here ... and as I had thought .. not all is well ... one of my bags went missing at the Chicago airport... As if it was meant to be ...
But still ... this is an opportunity for me to be strong ... this travel will make me strong ... I wont tell anyone at home regarding this .. already they are worried for my health .. this would only increase their worries ... I thank God that it was the smaller of the bags that was missing .. You still saved me God ... One prayer ... Please Please ensure all is well at home while I am here .. because I can live with this loss and will in fact even try to make the most of my trip while I am here .... But God, if ever i have done something good in life .. please take care of my parents and my brother while I am not there. ... Its a genuine request from your child .
