- Jyoti, Mumbai - Detroit

Born in Bombay, brought up in Mumbai….moved immediately after marriage to Detroit…still here….Undoubtedly Bombay is THE PLACE for me…I can just never let go of that name, that city…It has taught me to walk, run, talk, fight,live…has given me such precious moments, friends…There is an old saying  ”grass is always greener on the other side”

When I was in bombay, I cribbed about the clumsy roads, the roads are wide here (whats the use when there is nobody in the road to look out for/honk on ). I cribbed about no trees, no space to walk - there is greenery and well mowed lawn everywhere (whats the use when you dont have those friends to walk with)

I cribbed about pollution and my skin getting damaged b’cos of it - its all clean here (whats the use when there are no friends to compliment me about my skin and ask for my tips) Its a never ending comparison and I just wont stop……

Now its that saying…”when life gives you lemons…..”
