Laying myself on the beautiful South
lawn of The University of Melbourne, after a brainstorming one hour lecture!
The flowing air stream is singing a beautiful theme in my ears giving me an
ultimate feel of peace. I realize, I am in the World's one of the happiest
countries!
One of my friends called from India last day night to ask about
the life here. But I could hardly convey what I wanted to! "Language is not always enough
for expressing everything", especially when it comes to 'life'. It's a
thing to feel and to be felt, the same way why we can't teach a child what
“heat” of a fire is. He/she has to touch the dancing yellow light, if he wants
to 'feel the fire'.
I could roughly say, 'don't compare the expenses here
with that in another country.'(It's what most humans do get an idea of life
in a different place). It's something that varies from place to place and it's
not a good idea to use the calculator and multiply expense with currency conversion
rates -it's foolish (realized after using this 'brilliant' idea for a while.
Lol!) In fact, it's easier to balance the life here with plenty of
opportunities for part time works and online jobs.
The most important thing I liked about this place is, there is
value for every job we do and we feel to be active and enjoy/use every moment
in some way or other. Don't know whether it's only for me, but I have never
reached my room before 9 pm in night after coming here. May be, because my body
believes 'Evening is when the sun goes for sleep!' In India, sun has a
daily routine all over the year to go to sleep by 6-7 pm! Here I can see
sunlight even at 8 pm and it's hard to convince my self - late to go home. Seems
like to be in another world, entirely different from what I have seen till
this.
