Meeting an Indian family

I realized at some point that seeking temporary solace to homesickness is not to always overindulge myself with after-office-happy-hour activities but with simpler, inexpensive finding-my-worth moment in Dubai.

I was on a 12-minute unplanned creek-cruising yesterday when I met this Indian family while on a small abra (boat). I asked the father casually, "Sir, what is a typical family weekend for you?" He gazed and answered, "We go to church in the evening and spend an hour or so in the park with our daughter!"

I asked him if he's familiar with clash of clans. "No, but i know Cricket more than any other good sports in India. I watch every championship game with a cup of chai (milk tea)."

Then I asked the mother, "Madam, do you have a candy crush on your celfone?" She laughed and showed me her old model black samsung mobile phone.

Life's simplicity can sometimes bring positivity and harmony on us. In between those busy days when the other side of the world is at its own fast phase, it's fulfilling to live a life that is unplanned and carefree. Life then was not complicated before the time of facebook, instagram, youtube, clash of clans, and candy crush.

When we reached the small port, I handed over my celfone to the father and asked for a selfie portrait.
