Real Dreams

It is kind of spooky how you think you've come real far in life, and realize you're standing just where you were before. Kind of like a hindi movie, where the movie starts with two people in love, goes on for three hours about a lot of other things, but ends up with two people in love.
Well, anyway - after the rejection in 2004, I was real scared about even thinking about appearing again. I guess I couldn't really decide whether the risk was worth it. Sumit has been a part of his life in California and he talks about it with great fondness (even more fondness than our courtship days, but thats besides the point - although that is a major point.. hmm...).
So one fine morning, he wakes up with the thought of U.S. in his head and a funny smile on his face. "You know, I dreamed about my school last night?", he informed me. I thought it was a good opportunity to tell him about my nightmare the night before, but he cut me and went on about how much he missed it all.
"Well, why don't you just apply?", I asked, half giggling to myself. I think it was the air - he kind of liked the idea.
And off we were researching, working and dreaming about something that seemed next to impossible. On the 17th of this month, we had our interview, and they thought we were good enough this time around.
Infact only yesterday, our passports came through with a 10-year Visa.

Dreams do come true...
