I was born in Shillong in the chilly winters of Decembers... and 18 long years of upbringings there imbibed in me a special love and bond for the place. When I left that place almost 7 years ago it was just a naive place. But as they say, time heals everything, the place has changed drastically. When I was there last month for vacation with my parents, I observed these changes. The place has now have a CafeCoffeeDay, 2 pubs, lots of ATMs, the roads have gone better and etc etc. Some bad things were the traffic jams, increase in population and ofcourse the place has gone a bit warmer than it was to be those days. I have seen traffic lights coming up in the city roads. Hmmm... but now the place looks a bit alien to me. New people, new faces. However some traits will never change and thats speciallity of this place... thats Shillong.

there is a saying in french ,which gets translated to "the more it changes .the more it remains the same",so you will always be able to find something that would connect you to the place...even if it has changed
