I finally am connected to the internet and it's a little strange! I guess I haven't really had that since about May or so...I've gotten used to not having a cell phone or the internet or a watch. It has helped me to keep my head in the present moment instead of always worrying about where I have to be next and what still have to do and who is waiting for me to call on the other side of the world. Now that I have it, though, I'm realizing just how much I miss everyone and how easy it is for friendships to slip through my fingers like sand through a sieve. It's an erie feeling; it's making me realize how easily people come and go, or how easily I slip in and out of their lives and make new friends and then turn around and forget them a few fleeting weeks later. What does any of that mean in the first place? I'd really like to be better about it in all. I've barely gotten to talk about India with anyone, and it really feels like a dream.
