"home" and "home away from home"



after 3 days i have to go home, but the excitement and enthusiasm to meet family members has faded away.this was not the case while i was in school and we would eagerly wait for vacation. we used to have separate column on blackboard of our class as"DLFGH" meaning "days left for going home" and that was updated daily by monitor of class.
time have changed and probably we become more realistic as we grow up.
but, each time i go home even if i get bored and too much bored sometimes, i get attached to my family members and dont want really to come back, i am forced to come back not by my family members but my inner voice says it-"you have no other option. think it as your duty" and then with a smile on my face i come back to learn...and as days pass, i forget about home, that does not fascinate me anymore....and slowly college becomes my life........

thats the case with everyone...u become more n more engrossed, more self centered..n everything is left behind...even the family..but when u cross a age of 45 something...n again u tend to make effortsto b i n touch with ur old things, including ur own home, ur parents...
