The Last Time...

They say, “There’s always a first time!”
Today I feel that there is always a last time as well!!

This Diwali is the “last” one for me in many ways than one…
First it is my last Diwali at my parents’ home… the last one before I leave for US… the last one as a spinster…
This Diwali I am leaving behind many doors, many faces, many thoughts, some dreams and some grievances… hoping never to look back and repent over what all I have left behind… coz I also know that this Diwali there are many “First Times” for me as well… and I am all raring to welcome them all with both my hands wide open! :)

Chhod aaye hum woh galiyaan!!!
