Thoughts, Lessons And The Mindset Change For The Future
AFTER ALMOST 19 months, I was finally able to return to our home in Johannesburg. It seemed like eternity that we were away but something about reaching South Africa fills our family with warmth, which is no different from when we reach home in Dubai or Delhi. Johannesburg has been home for 17 years almost to the month. As we disembarked from the plane, we found the travelator at the airport was not working – the most likely culprit the power outages one is now increasingly accustomed to in South Africa. There was a lady walking with us and in typical South African style, she said: “Eish, it’s great to be back home, nothing has changed.” My wife and I looked at each other and had tears in our eyes that no one could empathize with, and it wasn’t the power outage. It was just good to be back home.
There were many reasons for coming back; the most obvious one being able to meet our team at the office after so long.
