On this day, in 2007 ( 8 years back ) I came to Bangalore. I came to this great city with great hopes, the first city I am living away from my parents, after staying with them for more than 21 years ! I carried in my heart, the promise that I gave to Valyapachhan and my dream to get in as a software developer in a respectable company, hoping to meet new friends in a totally new environment. During my travel in the Volvo ( such a novelty for me ) the song, Forever by Chris Brown, caught my attention.
My dear friend, I could say, that my life has never been the same, after I stepped into the soil of this great place. So upbeat, so much energy and best of all, helped me make all my dreams come true. I have my parents, friends and God to thank for making my life so much better and worth living in Bangalore. Thank you Bangalore for being my best friend, in my laughter and in my cries. I am still not fully understood this great place. I am sure more surprises, await me.
Ending this post from the lyrics of the song ‘Here I am’ by Bryan Adams
Here I am, this is me
There’s nowhere else on Earth I’d rather be
Here I am, it’s just me and you
Tonight we make our dreams come true
It’s a new world, it’s a new start
It’s alive with the beating of young hearts
