Better late than never

How nice does it feels to do something for the first time. It fills you with excitement, either it exceeds your hopes or falls short of it. But the feeling is nice, your eyes glow up, you feel ecstatic. For the people of Mumbai, it was a day something they expected much earlier. Still, better late than never. And Mumbai, it never disappoints. On board the metro today, you could see people smiling, eyes which carried hope for a better connectivity felt relieved. Office guys seemed happy their way back, a rare sight in my sweet city. Kids waved back at everyone they could see through the glasses, with happiness, with fun and their parents, they felt they owned everything. That they belong to it and why not, it gives them their livelihood without ever ceasing to move. Still the Mumbaikar feeling, it nicely maintains. Crowded people, smelling of sweat than of cologne. You don’t know but still you talk with them, share with them your opinions, feelings and forget them when they board down. How nicely it resonates our life, I think for a while. And then I know it belongs to me, it belongs to everyone who lives here. For the people, it was a dream come true, ‘better late than never’.

Hope our people maintain the sincerity, co-operate with the ones there for our good and for our safety. And hope our city connects better, without ever ceasing to move.
