On "Hotel Checkout Mania"

First time I sat in airplane when I was 27 years old! But than life remained a constant run for me. It is  like "zindagi ka muqaddar - safar dar safar". May be as I came from lower middle class, I tend to check hotel room, bathroom and living area three or four times before I check out - to make sure I haven't forgot my charger, iPad, tooth brush or something. One of my colleague on my last hotel check out made an interesting comment to tease me but I guess there was a grain of truth in it.

"Jo log hotel check out pe - baar baar ye check kerte hain ke - kuch reh to nahi gaya, kuch reh to nahi gaya - aese log aksar saari zindagi apne ooper gadhe ki tarah cheezoN ka bojh laade phirte rehte hain".

Its always a good thing-rechecking, better to be safe after all, of course smart packing and traveling light is a different story all together. Zindagi ka safar....reminded me of a beautiful line by an American, Urdu poet Max Bruce Nadir" Sarabon me safar karte hue bhie, Haqeeqat ki saza paayi bahot hai.....
