My answer to almost every disposition this year has been solved by travelling. It's like one of the best problem solving strategy that I have devised. There is a lot of noise in the city that is your home. There are responsibilities, socialization, commitments, your personal chores, thoughts that overrun, emotions that go wild and so much more that you almost always end up occupied. The thoughts that do come to you when you are alone are most of the time just problems that need to be solved. Travelling however leads you to a place where you may have certain job to do but you get like a time out from your everyday life.
There are days when you don't plan your vacations, so you just grab the first destination that comes to you, followed by throwing your clothes in a bag and just travel to that city. For me it was Lucknow this time.
I've been to this place when I was a kid since dad was posted in Kanpur for a couple of years. I don't remember a lot of it and I guess now was as a good a time as any to just go there. I was lucky since my friends were around there and the trip was more of a fun trip, mostly how my trips go. But just to walk the streets of an unfamiliar place make you experience life with a different mindset.

Someone told me that I run away from when I need some clarity and that's okay. I've had to handle so many things in my life head on that even if I do want to escape once in a while, why is that wrong? Anyway, I don't want to make this into a travel blog because this time I just want to remember the reason behind this visit and keep the memories stored in my heart and mind.
