It's my darling daughter's 27th birthday today. I'm glad I worked things out so that I could be here in New York to celebrate it with her. Other than that, it's extremely hard for me to be here. I'm having intense India withdrawal symptoms. To make matters worse, I have yet another case of Delhi Belly. It's the fifth time in four months.
I'm very sad. I miss the deep conversations that filled every day in India. I miss the connections between strangers on the street. I miss the heat! It feels like we've lost our way here in the West. I know there truly is nowhere to go and nothing to do, and that what I seek is inside me. Yet, context does apparently make a difference. I'm finding this Western context very, very difficult.
