I would call it a precious day if
memories were the currency of our time line. After 15 years I revisited a place
which was where a transition phase of my life began. Why I didn’t visit it
before, I wouldn't be able to say it now. I went to my college days in LTMMC , Sion hospital
Mumbai. There was a rush of nostalgic feelings which I certainly enjoyed. I saw
the council room where my association with my wife began. For us this should be
the true place of remembrance. Yogita appeared to remember certain instances
better than me. I wanted to go up to
visit the anatomy department but we decided not to. And then we walked the
distance from sion Hospital to sion station – something we have done many times.
We have talked odds and ends and left no
chance to start a fight. I remembered the way Yogita would want to buy a
greeting card from the Archie’s shop. The shop has moved to another corner. The
bus stops , the small street side shops , Gurukrupa hotel , we revisited recollections
of many small incidents of our adolescence. Those were the days when we lived
with great emotional support from each other. And we also realized how
different it was now...
