Oh I was playing holi after 5-6 years ...the reason I dint have enough friends in India during the Holi (as all my friends were nomads like me)
And I enjoyed every bit of it...while starting from home I had absolutely no Idea how the day will develop..and thats the fun, if every thing is planned ...then half of the fun is gone trying to keep thing as per plan!!
Me,gaurav,Vids and Mahesh some how found those rangoli color and then "Shuru karo Holi leke Wahe Guru da naam"
and thanks to the "multicorored gals" we started on the streets (woooohoooo) !! though we tried our best to reach some park to play holi ...but we couldnt...
aur kya solid attention mil raha thha ... bachhe-budhe aur jawan..sabhi kindaa impressed thhe .... had to face one N.minded uncle jee..have no Idea what he was trying to convey, and the old lady who got nostalgic about India and asked us to pray for his son , who ,even after staying in the same city, never visited her..
and then comes the "Dirty Dancing" totally colored and dancing ..to the beats of the road side DJ, people taking snaps with us , explaining what is Holi ...and justifying its nothing to do with religion etc etc ..
and during this all ... fresh layer of color being applied regularly...
then the wonderful lunch...thanks to Pearl and Amit for ordering that nice "gol gappe ka paani.."
and last but not least ...saaf suthre hone ke baad ..Arti ka surprise ...those who left early have really missed that...
While creating this blog, I was confused about the title and content of it. I was searching for something very significant which is very common to all of us and yet unique to each of us, and suddenly the word "Life" struck me. What else? Life is common to all of us and still we all have a unique way of living it...so "spice of life" came into being...
