I stood on the edge of land.
“I’m back, baby,” I whispered.
“I missed you,” she said.
“I missed you too.”
She responded by gently swirling around my ankles, gurgling as she withdrew and made way for another of her waves to wash over me. I had a smile the whole weekend in Gokarna. I’ve written about what it means to me, so I won’t do it again. I missed the sea, her warmth, her cold, her whispers and her screams, her love, her fury and her caress.
I made two wonderful friends this time in Gokarna. Here’s a shout out to Mahesh and Chris. Hope life takes you both where you want to go, and I hope Gokarna has been as therapeutic to you as it has been to me.
I was born on August 20, 1984. Or, in other forms, 20-08-84. A contraction of the same – 2084 – has always been a special number to me, at least for the past few years when I discovered it. It’s a perfect contraction, and aesthetically speaking, it feels beautiful and complete.
So, all my contemplation and thinking and chickening out ended on Saturday. I got my first tattoo, and I think it beats the shit out of any abstract designs!

Awesome tattoo macha.. I guess a QR code would have kicked the ass of this one and of course, yours too 😛
My quest for Gokarna still continues.. but this time, i made up for it with a trip to Chikmagalur.. Breath-taking to say the least. 🙂
Mate, your tattoo rocks. So now, you can never get lost.

You are officially a legit human being, now.
That’s weird… My husband’s birthday is on April 20 84
