Today was a really busy day for me......but it also gave me one of those moments when you accidentally see the reflection of that corner of your heart that had long been forgotten amidst the daily hustle-bustle of life..
Confused...?!?hehe...let me spell it out..
I really hadn't got much sleep last night for some stupid reason..and therefore, when i woke up this morning I wasnt really feeling energetic the way i like to feel for a 'gooooooood morning'..! I ran some errands in the morning , made some delicious pulao for lunch (again..!) and was just starting to make up my mind for catching some sleep when i got a text from a friend of mine for some outing....After much contemplation, we decided to visit the 'Delhi Haat'...
There is one more thing that i'd like to mention here..The people who know me know that i dont really go out with my little sister (who happens to be 11yrs younger than me..!). But to my mom's n my sister's surprise, i actually agreed to take her out with me..So she called another friend of hers. Now there were the 4 of us; me, my friend, my sister and her friend..!
Now we reached Delhi Haat around 3o'clock..Also, since navratras are going on...we could not have any of our kind of yummy food...(which loosely translates into CHICKENNNN...!!) So, we had some chhole bhature and stuff and just found a nice spot where we could sit and talk and make fun of all the funnily clad people there..!! (devil face..!!)...So we sat there for a good 1 hour , had some kulfi and did some more gossiping..!
Then in search of some good gol gappas, we went to 'punjabi rasoi' which is in a corner away from all the shor sharaba...!That area of Delhi Haat actually seemed much more hygienic than a lot of other corners. Then right there i found my adventure of the day..! Next to that place i saw a small play area where there were some slides, some swings and some of that stuff. It wasnt really a very elaborate area but was good for some fun time. As soon as we could get hold of those swings , we just sat on them and spread our wings and closed our eyes to a flashback of our childhood..! I couldnt help but go back almost 15 yrs when we used to go to children's park near india gate and played on the swings till our bodies ached and mom dad dragged us out of that park..!! It was just a taste of those golden days when there were no worries except some home work from school and what i was gonna eat when i rushed to the kitchen....With each thrust forward on that swing, my heart sang...'lalla la lalla la...'..!! Believe me...i was a child once again and i loved it...!!!
That unexpected experience totally relaxed and re-energised me...!
I think i have indeed found one place where i'd go back again and again....as my 'go-to' when i am in search of some destressing...!!
Here are a few pics of the day......
