Leaving something behind, which you once thought would never happen, is always heartbreaking. First, it was your home in India, then your home in NY. And now that you are back it must be feeling like you are starting from zero again. But, as we grow we come to appreciate things and people more than we did before.
This was a good essay. I just want to drop off a random ocean vuong quote:
"to be gorgeous you must first be seen, but to be seen allows you to be hunted"
This is how I felt when i got my first job in Bengaluru. I had to leave behind my home, my parents which I haven't done for 5-6 years. It was hard because my job didn't exactly lead to any kind of success i imagined. Guess, i have to make leave with it eventually
