my bangalore....

i walk, a mile and beyond, without knowing my destination. the closeness to nature at my institute is so wonderfully refreshing, with the breeze flowin in all directions.. and the leaves, yellow and dry, swaying around before they land gracefully onto land.... whoa! i jus love this place.... so beautiful, so serene... and so silent..... it reminds me of our old bangalore, which was so wonderful to live in, with hardly a vehicle seen for minutes.... the city was a paradise until all this software-related industry creeped in and stole away the charm of the city in the name of growth!!! growth huh... has come to bangalore and its original residents at a very costly price... this is definitely not, what most sensible bangaloreans ever wanted... i only wished that the people in power gave it a good thought before hurtling this wonderful city into what it has become now.... gone are the days of my childhood when we cycled carelessly on the roads of malleshwaram, played cricket over em on sundays and holidays.... hmmmm.... i miss my city, the way it was... and i literally hate the way it has been turned into now.... i only hope, she doesnt collapse under all this stress she's being put through.... love you my bangalore! love you lots!!
