THE DAY AFTER.............POSTCARD AND THE GREAT HANGOVER


Today's spark for some inexplicable reason is lot less sparkier than usual. At the first go, I thought of giving it a pass. But the whole ambiance, despite being eerie on the surface, still seemed quite overwhelming and awe inspiring . I had to write something about this great hangover of the Capital city Delhi.


The day after, is an amazing contrast to the razzmatazz of the previous evening, the exhilarating display at the closing ceremony of the 19th Commonwealth Games. Suddenly the city isn't as hustly-bustly and I dare say, isn't quite as happy, as it seemed between 3rd of Oct and the 14th, that was yesterday. The whole feeling is akin to coming to an end of a big Indian Wedding. Think about the next day of wedding , when the bride leaves here parents place for her new home. A strange kind of quietness decends upon the bride's family. Isn't it? Think about it.


If you are in Delhi today, look around, look at the faces of Delhiites, you will understand what I mean.


CHEER UP DELHI! IT'S TIME TO SET OUR SIGHTS ON THE MOTHER OF ALL SPORTING SPECTACLES...THE OLYMPICS!!
