sometime back...i had a big metaverse moment..
...this is in 2007 and around i guess...
san diego, ca - was perfect...

and i somehow - was fitting in ..
in a team i admired..

it was life - as perfect it could ve been..

if - i made that 'choice'..

now - after few 20 years..
i dont regret it - at all..

my reasons are not - shaming or demeaning california..
just - the realization : i might ve become part of same - culture..

on face of it - it seems like young people..
burning at both ends - to make it 🤩

but as somewhat - travelled unkle..
i can tell u - our struggles - make 'us'..

the race for money - is so tantalizing ..
that i am sure - my competitive nature : would ve taken me off..

but if this is the end result ...
den i lost what i loved - no security or pretty for familia..

it looks like old delhi...
with patliputra men - living without 'toilet'..

that 'past' - is just few decades behind us..
and in front of us..

'values' and 'men' : decided future of it..

money - lost 'value'.
