When we see them off....


























There is a something very earthy about being in the Airports. We can see so many people from so much different backgrounds ..aged, not so old, young, not so young..adolescents..all pushing their own bags around as they check in and come back to their relatives and friends who are seperated from them by a railing...talking to them animatedly and passionately about something which they think is important. They keep waving while they go towards the security check..we can see some tears too when they take leave from their dear ones..and we can see the happiness on the faces of the newly weds..as they walk away hand in hand ...If we are observant enough, we can even look at the father of the girl..who hold that wistful look in their eyes, as they see their kid walking away from them. It is quite a human drama out there, only if you have the patience and eye for humanity, which for a moment stops running and starts contemplating.. it is going to be a long long time when they meet again, and who knows, life is so strange, it is never going to be the same again...Seems to be the message clearly written in the air..Quite interesting.

Isnt there a quotation? If you can step out of yourself..and see around you, you will witness one of the finest comedies... :-)
