MONA, MOMA & Me
January 24th, 2015. I am sitting in Boston, MA, USA. Snow has been falling outside, so I woke up to white earth, brown trees covered with white buds, white flowers; if I look up there is blue sky covered with white rain. There is beauty of white, cleanliness of white, purity of white, and flying, singing, dancing, picture of white. Snow talks and I enjoy. It is as if I am in nature's museum!
The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York City is quite famous. People come from all over the world to see it. I remember one day, one of my cousins, but the age of my daughter, came from India to visit us in Connecticut. We were going to take her to New York. I asked, where do you want to go? She said, I have seen the city, so now I want to do shopping. Can you please take me to the Indian area for shopping? I said yes and we all got into the car. My young son, born in the USA, was also with us. He asked the girl, I hear you have seen the city, did you visit MOMA? She thought, I saw the Statue of Liberty, the World Trade Center, Times Square but, what is MOMA? She said no I haven't, but I do want to shop. She had never been exposed to modern art. He said, listen, if you have not seen MOMA, you have not seen New York.
She was convinced. I told her, if you see the museum quickly, we may still be able to do shopping. She enjoyed the museum so much that I could not drag her out. For me, thank goodness, it closed at five that day. We did some quick shopping and I drove back an hour and halfto Connecticut.
