last week, was in search of some breeze and had been to lalbagh. to sit on the the rock, near the kempegowda monument - to have some time for self. there were so many people. man - where can somebody find peace in bengaluru ??? the air was totally still and not even a leaf was moving. the air was so damn still.
the friday s ride back home did some magic. the expected magic did happen at the right time, when i had stopped for tea and calling my folks to tell them about my whereabouts.
the whether was very pleasant. it had just rained and was pretty chilly when the speed touched 100 kmph.
there on the road, i feel, the stretch between mysore and bangalore should not called a highway. there, every 500 m or so, a shop crops up. and it is very similar to a busy road in any city but has fast moving traffic.
in the earlier days when human civilizations were developing, people use to live where they could find a water source, say a lake or a river. these day, people start living where they find a highway. :D
when i reached mysore, was very happy to see that it was all decorated and looked like a bride.

interesting how people have shifted to places on/closer to the highways..are our waterways disappearing and do they seem to be causes of disease and sorrow (floods/pollution?)
those were the days when people would look out for water to survive. now, business is everything. that could be the reason for this radical change.
ya, i know..i had meant it as a rhetorical question..but now i'm finding it ironic that we are going back to the water bodies for refreshment nowadays..
