There’s still a lot I want to share with you all, especially about my recent international tour, which was my second international trip—and it was an amazing experience! But for now, I’ll be sharing my daily diary. I’ll write about the travel journey in my next post.

Yesterday evening, I went to the ISKCON temple for some peace of mind and returned to the office within 30 minutes, as the temple is only 6 minutes away.

Last night, my friend Anuj and I had dinner together because Ajay wasn’t feeling well. So we brought some sweet lime (mosambi) juice for him from outside, which cost ₹60—that’s approximately 10 STEEM in value.

Then we bought a packet of bread and went home. When we got there, we saw that Ajay was eagerly waiting for us. We met him, gave him the juice, and quickly toasted the bread on a pan. We served him milk bread, which he ate as a light meal before taking his night medicine. After that, he went back to his room to sleep.

Today, I learned something important—when you’re living a bachelor’s life, far away from your family, and you choose to live with friends or alone, situations like this teach you the value of relationships. In times of need, your family may not be around, so you have to become family for your friends and take full care of each other. Only when we think about each other’s well-being can we live a happy and peaceful life.

Now, since Ajay had dinner, only Anuj and I were left. Though we had eaten something at the office in the evening, we still felt hungry later at night. So, we made a kind of egg sandwich for ourselves—we added some vegetables and even avocado to it. We prepared our own little recipe, and after eating two each, we were completely full.

Then we started watching the match. Right now, the IPL is going on in India, and as you know, Indians are huge cricket fans—and we’re no different. Last night’s match was between KKR and Punjab. In the end, Punjab managed to take the final wickets and win the game.

After the match ended, I went to sleep. But after a little while, I got a call from my friend Vinod. He asked how I was doing and mentioned that he was going to Listrin’s house. He asked if we had any of Listrin’s belongings with us, so he could take them along. I told him to come over and we’d pack the stuff for him. Within just five minutes, he arrived at our place, and we packed Listrin’s belongings and handed them over to him.

We all sat and chatted for a while. As it got quite late, Vinod said goodbye to all of us and headed back home.

After he left, we also went to sleep. Then, this morning, I woke up because of a phone call. When I answered it, I realized it was a bot call about a credit card, so I hung up. But by then, I was fully awake. I came downstairs to the hall and started checking my phone notifications, emails, WhatsApp, and other apps. I also drank lukewarm water to detox my body.

A little later, Ajay also came into the hall. I asked him how he was feeling. He replied in a low, tired voice that he was feeling okay-ish. I told him to rest for another day if he wasn’t feeling fully recovered yet. He didn’t respond and just lay down on the sofa and went back to sleep.
