Vienna Part - II

Am back in Vienna yet again. Had been here only 3 weeks back and even then this place seems so different. Summer is gone, and Vienna looks desserted. The same roads but devoid of colorful tourists. The same roadside food joints but all chairs withdrawn - so what you are left over with is empty footpath. The wind is chilly, the weather a bitch...and everybody seem so dull and devoid of any pleasure in life - and am no exception.

Well, the irony of fate is that, this time work pressure is much less - but I have no place to go. Because would prefer to be at home in this weather than venture out. Europe in mid-Oct is not a desirable time to be in. As I struggle everyday to commute to and fro office and fight my way against the strong south-westerly wind, I miss my home even more, and to think about it, tomorrow being Diwali - the festival of light - am here in this part of the world freezing to death twice every day. And they say winter has still not properly begun!!! Oh my my!!!

Some people describe facts. Some people express their opininons. Very few people can do both together - describing as well as expressing opininons. That makes your portings so valuable, whatever be the topic. That is where it becomes something beyond a digital diary but at the same time so it remains as next door writings.
