Chapter 13: CHAPTER 13- It Was All Connected

I remember landing at Mumbai International Airport late week night hoping to have a bunch of relatives waiting for my arrival. I had last been there on a visit as an adorable, constantly kissed and cuddled plump baby. Puberty had been so granting for me, I was much happier with myself and wanted to see how everyone reacted. This was an era when yearly photographs were exchanged and there was no social media. We still took pictures on cheap kodak cameras and waited for weeks for the film to produce actual pictures to be able to hold in our hands and admire our faces, or sigh if the picture turned out blurred or sideways. We therefore turned out to be such a patient population and probably that’s why we are so impatient today. We want Fast food, faster communication and the fastest cars. Sometimes I feel being an Empath gives me the ability to also slow down and listen quietly to what others want. It has certainly made me a better person and helped me alot with my anger management.
