airport arrival lounges must surely be the happiest places on earth. its a treat to see people come out of the swishing gates, look around to catch a familiar face, see 10 of them and then the glow of absolute bliss. tears flow unchecked, grown up men and women venting emotions bottled inside. some people catch a glimpse of their child for the first time, hugs abound, kisses from a normally restrained race.some exchange coy glances at a sweetheart they met long ago.
it was fun to spend almost an hour waiting for mandali. amazing positive energy.got talking to an old man who had come to receive his daughter. his narration of travelling by ship in the 50s was a stark contrast to the age we live in. we have come a long way.
the shortest journey is the one that brings you back home.
