I want to go there and live wondering about life for the rest of it. It’s not really a dream when you don’t just wish for but want it. And, I want to sink myself with the meanings to life given to our planet by mankind.
In Italy.
Why Italy? Why not stay faithful to your country right where you were born? And, why Italy? Because, I don’t know if the real sense of being an Indian is to stay here or even that of being a man of art is to be in Italy. But, I know it talks to live in harmony. Pity borders defined by the British lawyers who barely knew this country won’t stop a man from living his dreams. But, they do delay my journey as my fellow travelers have been delayed by their borders.
I don’t want to talk about what I want to do in Italy. Mostly, because I don’t know for myself. Knowing what happens in a dream is not what I sleep into. As the free world would want it, I’ll let the moment decide when my feet set on the magic-land.
It is a dream. And, why Italy?

We should have been in Rome this March – the flight was cancelled. There, by the grace of God! Maybe next year?

Doesn’t quite follow from your previous statement about sense of being in Indian Oru an artist living in Italy. Have a nice day.

Here, I am referring to my uncertainty about the stereotypes. I am an artist living in India and love my country. I love Italy too. Thank you! You too, sir 😀
