The Blogger's Logs

Still early on a fine Sunday morning.Was planning to go swimming, but my friend is still in his dreams,probably the climax of it.So waiting for him to wake up from his long awaited Sunday morning.Was browsing something which has become a "Second Life", Orkut. Suddenly hit upon a friends profile , which read something like "Exactly one year back we had a ....",one year back. Exactly one year.And now. Nothing seems to have changed.................other than life of course.

One year, time flew away before I could realise, there are people who have lived every second of this one year, but then probably I was not as lucky. But lives for most of us dint go unnoticed and untouched,there was a little bit of something for every1.

Lets go 1 year back.Or do we rollback from the present day ? Better lets start one year back. [These rollbacks have a very horrendous effect on me after watching the movie "Memento"]

6th of May, 2006 - Some1 left college and the city forever. And this continued for the next few days.Each morning, I would get up , my liver half soaked with alcohol, and my eyes half open as I hardly got sleep then, and my heart half heavy, as we bid adieu to friends every other day, thinking , prolly we wont meet again in life. Was just a bit unsure of what is going to follow next in life. And then my roommates left.Then I did, I had to , the hostel was haunting me more and more everyday.It gave me the feeling of a massacre, an entire race of people, a civilisation wiped out.

Few things followed, not much to mention, a trip to the Himalayas, a trip to Kolkata, and some place else.Then finally came to Bangalore, with a lot of dreams in eyes, just like any other college fresher wud come to join his first job.The office, the campus, the city dint leave me gaping allthough as it would have left many,but the thrill was there.My first day, my first official day was not @ Wipro Technologies, it was @ NIIT :( And then training was over in three months time, and from that day on till today , there has not been much difference in life.

Weekends became precious, time management was important, money management was more important, banking transactions were done in ATM's, got new assets for myself, responsibilities tripled, personal opinions became truth, fell in love, washed utensils, got an individual social representation, got frustrated, missed people and my folks, cooked food, shaved my head, credit cards, loans, blah blah blah. Life slowly got so rigid. Emotions were not solicited by self, thousand one hundred and one compromises with life.Welcome to corporate life they said, I say welcome to the phase.

These are not changes.YAP [ Yet Another Phase] ,another struggle. Will take time to absorb the sudden changes and hence we see them as changes. Comes in everybody's life. Every1 around has become so different.I myself have. But then is it not what is needed ?


End of the day, my simple question, are you not happy ?

If your answer is 'Yes' then stay happy.
If it is 'No' then think , what are you doing to get happier.
