M missing India


Here I am...this is me...
M sittin miles away 4m home...m here 4 work...to learn...to earn...to get some xposure...some experience...to ensure dat d good start dat i've got to my career carries on..and i reach the destination i had in mind before i started off on this path..
its been almost 3 months since i'v bn in UK...things hav bn good so far..wrkd really hard for the first 5-6 weeks...then things became a little easier..i had a li'l more time 4 myself...weekends were off..and then one fine day i was told dat i have to go back as the task assigned to me was finished...
Though initially i was a li'l disappointed to be going back so soon, gradually the disappointment took a back seat and I was happy to go back home..the countdown began...7 days to go..6 days to go..5..4..but dat was it...
3 daz to go before i could leave 4 india...and my manager comes to me and says you may have to stay here for a li'l longer...and how long is dat li'l longer gonna be..i still dont know...
when i was asked to leave..i was disappointed...but then when i was asked to stay back...i wasn't happy at all...
dats life...though life has been good at work so far...lots of challenges to take...lots of new things to learn...lots of new people to meet..but I miss home a lot...I miss India a lot...
I freak out with my friends once in a while...I enjoy as much as I can...but at the end of the day..this is not where I belong to...the true enjoyment..the true sense of satisfaction that one gets after any kinda fun...happens only in India!!!

The Child Inside You Must Always Remain Alive

Imagine yourself at your formal best in a board room. Soon after, you attend a friend's birthday party at a hip restaurant. Just as you guys think about calling it a day, the rain Gods make their presence felt. What do you do??? Do you take the parking lot as a large public bathroom, and make full use of the water supply. Or do you stand under a shed, and look at the other category of people and think "Oh! Probably they haven't taken a shower for weeks!!" Well... I belong to the former category, The child inside me is still alive!!! :) When a child in class 2 returns home, he is so very excited... "Hurray!!! i am home!!!!!" and so are the kid's parents। The other day I was at my friend's place when his elder brother, who is the HR Head of a software firm, came back home from work। He entered with a sigh, didn't even bother to say Hi, and I thought I heard my friend's mom cry.... Oh Hez Home again...Why!!! Well...all I am talking about...

One Fine Day...

Someday you just feel like standing out of yourself. Just watch yourself as the world does. Where are you? What is it that the world thinks you are? And most importantly, who are you for yourself. So what is it that you really are? And what makes you what you are. Is it the choices that you make? Or is it but a function of choices made by those around? Or is it neither? Do your choices, your decisions, your actions actually make a difference? Is free will for real? Is it really you who makes those choices, who takes those decisions. Or are these governed by this 4 letter f word. I mean fate. Is it fate that rules? Have you been planted somewhere for a plan to implement itself gradually. Coz they say everyone’s existence has a purpose. Or have you merely been sent to make plans and create a purpose for your life? Are there billions of other co-existing plans that keep colliding with and gelling into each other? As tightly knit as the clock’s gears. Or is it just The Plan that...

The Cup's ours... and the Saucer??

Wow!!! What a Week!!! Rather what a fabulous month and a half. And there couldn't have been a better finish to this festival for a country which is united by one religion despite different beliefs. Yes it is the cricket World Cup 2011 that I am talking about. And yours truly is one of those lunatics who fast (read forget everything except one) even on Baisakhi, this one was like an extra extended Navaratri, so one can easily imagine the extent of my excitement during this month and a half, and the magnitude of joy when India won!!! Yes, India finally did manage to get the cup home after a wait of 28 long years. Here are snippets from a few News items I read recently. Surprisingly these are related to the World Cup but don't talk about Cricket. "Just before the Feb 19-April 2 tournament reached the halfway mark, the government issued an alert on Wednesday over a possible attack on the tournament being played in 13 venues across India, Sri Lanka and Ban...
