Have been evicted out of my lease. It's the first time in my life I am living in a leased apartment, and guess what the timing could not have been worse...I have more stuff in my wardrobes than walmart.
Still coming to terms with it and smarting with the pain of relocation, I was telling someone at work, "its time to buy a house....this nomadic thingy cannot work"...and he said, "apartment or independent"...I said, "can't afford independent in the locales I want"...and he said..."buy it in a cheaper place...finally apni zameen apni hoti hai".
That struck me as odd and insightful. An urbane Indian's heart still larks for bighas of land.
I am a misfit in this world. For me "apartment" it will be.
