Rekha's Ramblings

 Simply fascinated by their ability to shed everything each year, year after year and start fresh, anew each year, every year. Why weren't us humans given that ability???? Not only that, but it’s also perfectly ok for them to change colors year after year, get prettier right before it gets barren and come back even prettier and in this part of Virginia, with a vengeance!!! My Ramblings for this Friday.

 What does one do with them? I'm not that attached to the video tapes but audio.... yes. 21 years ago and for 5-6 years since then, they were the ones there when no one else was, in happiness, in sorrow, when homesick, when needed a little boost to get through yet another day, week or month before a trip back home, while driving in the darkness by myself ... Hindi songs by Lata, Asha, Rafi or Kishore Kumar or Marathi music. Little did we know that things were about to change, that the world was literally going to be at one's fingertips.... The question now is do I stay attached to them and continue to hoard a few more boxes or do I get rid of them?? Is this the difference between us and the trees?? I don't even think I have a cassette player anymore, yet I am dwelling on the thought of keeping them, as a keepsake of course. My rambling for this Friday!
