Happy 2011!!!

i got new clothes, new bag, a new watch, and a new pen that day...
i was excited, heart thumping... nerves raised as i boarded the bus...
faces looking at me...
i was nervous like a li'l doe... feeling so tiny n puny out there!!!
how is it gonna be like?
wud i be accpeted?
how wud they be like?
had these thoughts all through my way...
then i reached the destination... picked my bag... got off the bus...
every step i took was like a ton as i proceeded towards the address that i had handy...
there it was...
big gate... n a long pathway towards my dream... my first love!!
i took a deep breath as i entered the huuugeeee building with a BIG glass door...
high roofed... black granite floor shinning bright...
a line of smooth cut sofas towards my left...
high ornamental plants in crystal clean pots...
big glass window rt there on the opposite wall... letting the bright sun in...
making the place all the more bright, warm n welcoming...
i went to the lady n asked for the name...
here he was... as if he was waiting for me already...
he made me sat in a comfortable room...
we spoke for a while...
n then i signed the papers...
My first joining papers...
Then he stood up... shook hands with me n with a big grin said:
"Welcome Aboard!!!"

8th Jan 2001... a decade ago... this was how my first day started @ Hughes Software Systems...
10 yrs gone since then but that special day is still afresh in my mind and can never fade off...
Time spent there was the best and I would always be bias towards it as that is and would always be my first love...
I have had and seen a lot in past 10 yrs...
These experiences have helped me grow not only as a person but as an individual too...
They all contribted to what I am and what I have grown up to as of today...
This is my l'il way to say thanks to everyone who has been a part of my journey (no matter how short or long duration has had been) throughout and would try n get in touch with them to say thanx...
I learned something or the other from all of you...

Thanx a lot for even reading this and being a part of my journey...

Happy n prosperous 2011 to u all n ur loved ones!!!

LIFE!!!

ज़िन्दगी ज़िन्दगी... क्या तेरा रूप है... तू कभी छाँव है ... और कभी धुप है!!!

Life...
lemme ponder a bit over what is it... it's purpose...
does she say anything to me... or tryin teach me something...
in its own sweet way... wants me to undertand something...
or is it my friend... always with me...
sweet to give me so many gifts to cherish...
frenz, family... everybody...


giving me experience and lessons to be thankful for what I have and relish that forever!!!
be it past, present or future to come...
giving me the sun of tests and then giving me the shade of rewards...
and so making me what i am and how i am...


circumstances... circumstances only are which make u feel superior
and overlook what she is and what are her powers...


I will always... always let you be my guide and help me determine the course
where I would go or rather...


where would you take me!!!

Retirement!

Retirement is something that people look forward to all of their lives. But, it is a lucky few only however, who truly get to enjoy their golden years.

Till now you never gave yourself any priority to give us everything... now its your turn to sit back n enjoy while we work to give you everything...

There could be number of factors and issues that prevent people from taking full advantage of their retirement years... and you are amongst those few who are lucky enough to really enjoy their "golden years" and are truly blessed.

So jus enjoy life now, Dad, while you can because you never know what is going to happen later...

And now since you have reached this another marvelous milestone of your age this year... I wont let this opportunity go from letting you know that I LOVE YOU and you n mom are my GOD!!!

May Almighty Bless you with the best and keep up the spirit with which u have lived your life...
