Comments on: I’m Back and My Dog Ate My Homework http://samirbharadwaj.com/blog/im-back-and-my-dog-ate-my-homework/ Everything I'm doing when I'm not doing everything else Sun, 06 Jul 2008 06:01:46 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Samir Bharadwaj http://samirbharadwaj.com/blog/im-back-and-my-dog-ate-my-homework/#comment-10677 Samir Bharadwaj Wed, 20 Feb 2008 17:25:52 +0000 http://samirbharadwaj.com/blog/im-back-and-my-dog-ate-my-homework/#comment-10677 Hey there, Forest. Good to see you around. It's been a while, and I've been completely out of touch with everyone and everything online. India is absolutely amazing, or absolutely dreadful, depending on who you ask. Anyone coming to India from the West will need a strong stomach and some major attitude adjustments to deal with the place. You'd think it goes without saying, but everything there can be truly <em>foreign</em> to the uninitiated. Once you accept it for what it is, it's a blast. I see India from the unique perspective of considering it my home, while at the same time being an outsider, having lived elsewhere for a large chunk of my life. I see things others may not, both good and bad. There are aspects of the place that I appreciate more due to my perspective, and there are some things I am even more critical of. What you can't take away from India though, no matter what your viewpoint on it, is that it is <strong>alive</strong>. In India, life is a palpable, almost physical beast, and the place is magical for it. Hopefully I can bring that across in the stories that are yet to be told. Stick around. Hey there, Forest.

I have always wanted to go to India but don't think I will make it in the next few years. Anyway I am glad you are back and I am looking forward to those stories. It sounds like it was amazing.
