Take me home, country roads

It is that time of the year when I would want to be with my larger family for Diwali and New Year. But I just cancelled my two week vacation yesterday to be in office on November 6th and meet a senior executive who is travelling to Pune. I am still hoping to be able to board a flight to my native place on Friday AM and be home by evening.

It is that time of the year when I have often found myself at crossroads and deciding on which road to take. Time and time again I have found myself taking the road less travelled, only to find myself lonely and disappointed later. This time, this year, the highlands are calling me. Those snow-capped mountains beckon me to come and make happen what has been destined. But destiny had some other promises too !!


I hear her voice, in the mornin' hours she calls me,
The radio reminds me of my home far away.
And drivin' down the road,
I get a feelin' that I should have been home yesterday,
Yesterday.Country Roads, take me home,
To the place I belong:
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roads.
