Silchar
A land of the
vibrants! The burst of colours as you enter the territory, the senseless blow
of horns, the highly variated veggies on every street, the confident cows
sitting on the mid road, temples in each corner, masjids
in the next , all being the reminder of the vibrancy of the place.
People applying bright red vermillion or wearing bright red
dresses on a hot summer day adds colour to the life of a dull human like me! I
love the music played on the stereo be it in autos or shops filled with
youngsters which otherwise I never listen to, not in a billion years. And yet,
I fall in love with the songs.
I love the challenges
this place provide, the people provide. And the satisfaction of succeeding in
the challenge each time is just mind blowing! The sweat on my brow, the burns
on my skin become all the more worth it.
The roadside food you
get in such cheap a price, the hot cup of tea early in the morning, the
possibility of getting sugar as per our convenience (Rs 10 for that matter)
makes my stay here all the more sweet. The challenge of balancing
hot-headedness and a cool head forces my
mind to work which otherwise remains idle.You can act rich and at the same time
not hide the fact that you are a pauper in true sense. You can be anything and
anyone here, that’s how comfortable I am with this place.
