This was the longest I had been away from home on a holiday.
Why did I go to B'lore. Well yes, to see Amy. I don't now why I had to be there. And so I was. I also knew with my disappearing act I wouldn't have him accompany me even if I wanted to, but I just wanted to be there.
30-Jan mamu and family left for Chandigarh and I left for Tirupathi. Of course Amy dropped me and picked me up the next evening when I returned. It was nice, sweet. The shortest I have known someone. And even before I knew something was building up, we broke up!! That was NEWS.
I then went to Belur-Haleebedu. It was hot, but good.
I had decided to go for the 9 days temple tour which happened every second and fourth Saturday. I had 3 days in hand before this trip. So I again took up the Mysore trip. I was yet to see the Mysore palace. Mid way Sl calls to say ' you don't come back, take your journey ahead to Kushalnagar!'. I went 'oo..kk'. After the Brindavan garden treat, I told my guide I wanted to stay back in Mysore. He had me dropped right near the hotel where Sl had made the arrangements. The nights rest was a respite. Now I had to decide whether I pick up the Somnathour route or Kushalnagar one. They were in opposite directions from Mysore. So I first took a cab from Mysore to Somnathpur, saw the temple, came back to Myosre and then took a bus for Kushalnagar (get down at Koppa and then take an auto. It's some 2-3 kms frm Koppa. They wil cherge 40/bucks). They refer to the Monastry as the 'Golden Temple'. This place was all the worth. The chants the prayers. I could listen to it for hours to go.
Good things about being a lonely travel:
It's convenient. You don't have to take into consideration if the other person with you is tired hungry thirst. You just carry on. No obligations.
No issues doing the disappearing act anytime. No one to care about you
Better to be alone and feel lonely than be in company and feel lonely
Not so good things:
It's fine till you alone. But once it starts to get lonely it doesn't feel nice.
It's always fun to have an accomplice.
It's nice to have someone to care for and care about
No one to hold hands
No one to look forward to for some motivation when you are tired and almost about to give up

No shoulder to sleep on
Everyone thinks you are one lonely desperate woman

Longest I have been in company. If this is what being married is, I liked it. The kiss on the forehead. Holding hands. The little touch before giving monetary offerings to the gods. The parikrama's around the deity. Just being together. I know I ruined it all. But why not. I knew you were to end it this way or the other. Why should I cause more pain for myself?
I sure have an inkling for the city, one of the reasons being you.
One day oh baby we'll be old, think of all the stories we could've told
