Me and speedy going places

The following happened while camping here for couple of hours…met a beautiful soul Mr. Babu Mohite. I asked his permission if I could stay being an outsider in his village. He promptly replied it is a public place and requested to take care of it and myself near the river. He learnt I am from Goa… I learnt he has four kids a wife and his mom. We discussed health, wealth happiness all over a small box of til laddoos my mom had packed. By the time I left I learnt so much about his way of life… how their gulaal (Holi) would start soon after sugarcane harvesting ends and how he and his family wait eagerly over mutton bhakri feast the villagers will prepare. It was getting late…He invited me to his house which with a sad heart I had to decline since my wife and kid were waiting for me anxiously in Pune. I wish I could stop time.
