Diwali and tragedy

See the whole universe was trying to tell me something !!!  i guess so :-P

Its so contradictory experience i had just few hours ago , and i have to admit not even USA is safe anymore for assaults and abuse..

I am not sure should i laugh about it now or should i be concerned or handle this seriously. Anyways enough with the suspense. Here it goes...

The story begins with the late celebration of Diwali at gurudwara, San Jose. We had lovely time, enjoyed Diwali away from home with the best dinner, sweets and crackers that wont make any sound :-)
So we had fun and then we returned home.

On the way home we had an idea about photo shoot at university gate and that was the most insane thing we did..followed the instincts..

So as usual i was giving some funny poses and going on about 4-5 pics and then we found someone to take a group photo and that was it ..

out of nowhere a women came onto me, looks like she was homeless and high , (apparently she was) started accusing me of something and i stepped back . Before i could understand whats happening she hit me hard on the face saying something .. as of i remember i never seen her before and never done anything to piss er off.

And before i could get to my sensed my friends fighting with her and she went away.
I thought that's it and should go home now but the american guy who was taking our pic called 911 as he was appalled by the instance.

I sure was feeling the burning sensation and some small bumps that vanished soon and my earlobes were so hot that i could feel the heat escaping on the chilly winds. My eyes filled with tears as a reflex to the slap i had.

Everyone was concerned about me  and also they were highly something the word i cant find..

so i made a joke hoping that the tension would wear out, and it did help. the police came and talked to the lady and gave her warning and gave us a speech about what to do and not to do in such circumstances.

We left for home having a discussion about the racism and homeless people, as they took it as a racist thing to do as we are Indians. Frankly, I never though of that.
Everyone kept asking me after that how i felt, was i feeling offended, or was i scared or something else.

Seriously, I am feeling like i am becoming emotionless m for a moment when she came onto me  i got scared but that's it, i never felt more than that. Maybe she was high, may be she was schizophrenic or even my posing and laughing may have made her to loose her control, i was ready to let go her and the things that happened at that instance and everyone else defended me .

How was i supposed to feel and was it seriously a universe call for telling me that i did something terribly wrong or it was just an experience that led to a hilarious and yet  thrilling experience

I am not giving it a thought .. I am just recording a memory that i would want to remember all the time  :-)
