Feeling Grateful ...

I've absolutely nothing original to contribute today...which is becoming more of a habit thesedays...n therefore...for the records...here I am..
neways...
nothing much happening in life thesedays...but then again....depends on the way you look at it...work...work..work...taking away most of the time...with little left for any other activity. Lots of things happening around me though. Friend got married...friends getting married..housewarming comming up...I've completed 5 months with my first Organization...n much much more...
How fast things change in our lives. It seems like it was yesterday when we used to have those carefree school days when all our concern was to do well in the quarterly tests and annual exams...thoses much awaited evenings...spent playing all sorts of typically kiddish games with friends till dusk...being scolded for coming back late...them came the board exams...then the sudden shift...from a school kid to a college goer...all those gossip sessions that were to follow...the 13 hours of hardwork and play in the hot summer sun during the PCP...NCC...NSS...the camps..college tours..internship...and offcourse the endless discussions on career planning.
The best part is that all of us ended up in good places...and nicely settled..then the 2 yrs of self discovery amd personal learning and much more at NIAM...and finally...all of us landed with our first jobs...the final ( not the last one though ..) step of transition...we become financially independent...earning for self and capable of supporting ( megrely ...nevermind !!) family..!!
Whew...looking back..it does seem like a lot acomplished...and also it is a time to realise and be thankful to all the people and powers that have facilitated the difficult task...thankful to a wonderful set of parents who have with their limited resources ensured that we were never short of anything...for making innumerable sacrifices and taking so much pains to keep us happy...who made our ambitions their goals..thankful to the Almighty, for making us special..for giving us the the opportunity to do well..for giving us his blessings in the disguise of loving parents, sibblings, loyal friends, teachers who nourished our minds...and above all, for giving us good health...and making the world a wonderful place to live.

Thankyou Everybody...for being there...

Kedarkantha Memoires - 1st – 6th April 2017

Exhilarating! Breathtaking ! Absolutely Fantastic! Words fall short to describe the 4 days of trek to Kedarkantha summit , a journey, that was like a breath of fresh air, breaking the monotony of our mundane lives, giving us the instant boost and a treasure trove of memories! Want to pen down the experience, before it starts to fade gradually, till only the faint highlights remain, of what was one of the best experiences of my life. Day 0: We prepared to leave for Dehradun by train from New Delhi.  Sleepy, since the train scheduled to depart at 11:50 PM, is usually late by 15-20 mins. Day 1: Reached Dehradun. Pickup organized by Indiahkes team. Dehradun station is the pickup point for several treks – Nag Tibba, Har Ki Dun & Kedarkantha. Seeing fellow trekkers, with the standard decathlon gear gives rise to a feeling of camaraderie. Couple of enquiries later, 3 of us are in a bolero, accompanied by 2 guys from Indore, on our way to a quaint village by the nam

This & That

Hhhmmm…. Starting the post with a quick update. The worst thing that could have happened to me, took place on the fateful evening of 27 th June, when the office order for change in existing seating arrangement was circulated. Uprooted from my cozy place…where I could spend my free time browsing my favourite Sites …catching up with friends etc, now I sit (uncomfortably) with my computer screen clearly visible to the prying eyes of passersby. Review presentation over. Was something of a task…..describing the value addition in me (where there had been none) and giving details of the (managerial) activities I’d been involved in during the past year ( where all I’d done was donkey’s work). Another bit of news, that made my day, was when I got to know that my friend is expecting. The one who was with me in school centuries ago… God!! How fast time flies. Nothing very great happening on the personal front. Guess that sums it up. Now coming back to where I s

Losing A Piece of My Soul...

I came to you the hour I was in pain Looking for answers, I cried to you in vain. I shared the many skeletons hiding in my heart,I knew then you'd be my friend, I knew it from the start. Troubles ran like rivers, flowing through my life, You picked the pieces up and help me through my strife. When home wasn't home to me no more, You opened up your heart, and opened up the door. We cried into night until the early morn. We solaced each other's pain and shared our many thorns. As time flew, the air grew thick, I saw our friendship fading, and my heart grew sick. The day had arrived,When it was time to say goodbye. Now I sit alone,reminiscing the past I'd blown .
