As i sit by the window at my grans place sipping through my choc drink, i cannot help but notice the change that has crept over the place...over my city...over my GOA... As i peep out i am drawn towards the images of my past where Goa was a much serene and a much quieter place... Where a kid was free to play on the streets coz of the very little traffic, where women could roam freely at night,where no one would look upon a new "HIPPIE" with suspicion...It was like a child who hadn't yet grown up, who wasn't acquainted with the ways of the world, who just innocent....But as they say everyone has to grow up someday and so did Goa.. It just grew up... It grew up to corruption, to drugs and to all the remaining known sins to man...And this made Goa the most happening and the Hottest destination for the tourists...
But what bout its own citizens?? Are they happy?? Well what parent is happy when a child grows up?? but that doesn't mean that the parent stops loving the child...The citizens are pleased with the development but are also irked by the unwanted wrong reasons that make Goa famous.. No doubt that tourism has boosted our economy and has increased our standard of living but it also has taken the free and innocent Goa away from us..
This only leaves me with a lil question:
"IS GOA STILL THE BEST 3 LETTER WORD THAT I KNOW??!!??"
