What changed in Bangalore?

Where am I? Well, that's the question even I don't know how to answer. Rather than asking this question, I can ask what am I? But I don't know that as well. I have been pondering upon these questions since the moment I came back from Bangalore. To be honest, something changed when I went to Bangalore. It reminded me of the missing piece in my life- my friends and research. Which is why I started questioning the path I have taken. I went to GIZ, and WISA, and explored the other side of the coin but now that I have explored both sides of the coin, I wish to go back to the side I originally belonged to. Well, I know detouring is not easy and the decisions need not be made with haste so I am taking small calculated steps to go to the side I belong. I hope by the time I reach there, I make for the lost time but to be honest, there are things I like about this path too so I am not sure if there is a place where I get the best of both worlds. But till then, I'll keep searching.
