A typical 8am morning in chennai. Shops opening up at ease. The slight breeze makes the start of the day pleasant. That’s a gift as it’s inadvertently gonna be a hot day ahead. Tens of employees waiting for their pickup vehicles. Some lucky ones still snoring away on their beds. Local trains seeing the worst crowd of the day as workers sojourn from one end of the city to another. The roadside tea shops and food stalls handling the morning rush. Kids heading to school in buses and barefoot. Elderly souls returning from their morning walks. The empty roads are a joy to drive on. Sitting in an office cab, listening to my fav songs, the sight of the city stepping into it’s busy day is worth savoring. Also love the return journey in a city bus on the mornings after an allnighter in office. Everything looks so …. Alive ! There’s no denying that I do love something about this city.
