Here I am again, in this all too familiar situation of packing up my life, boarding a plane, and venturing into the unknown. It’s less than two weeks before I return to India. At one stage it felt like this time would never come, and now after five months at home in Australia it’s so hard to believe that it’s nearly here.
I’ve felt so many different emotions from nervousness, sadness, excitement, and an overwhelming feeling of wanting to be back there RIGHT NOW. I’ve fought with that scared voice in my head that pops up sometimes, wanting me to hold on to the past and keep living a normal, ordinary life here. And I’ve been encouraged by flashes of inspiration and intuition that radiate through my body, filling me with energy and surety that I’m on the right path and just need to keep moving forward.
At times I feel daunted because this isn’t going to be just another trip to India. I’m going there indefinitely, to be with my sweetheart, get married, to live my life like an Indian, and live it in a strange city. It’s going to be challenging and rewarding.
I’m amazed that this adventure, which started with a five week trip to Calcutta a little over two years ago, has now turned into my life. My life that’s completely changed – on one hand it makes no sense any more, but on the other hand it’s has given me more courage, direction and purpose than I’ve ever felt. All I can do is follow my heart, and trust that this is all part of the universe’s greater plan for me!
