2011-The year that was

Just 3 days more n we would bid goodbye to 2011..
2011-The year that was quite eventful....

It was a year of new opportunities,new dreams, new responsibilities,new acquaintances,new friends,new learnings,new realizations...But It was also a year of revival of old ties,reminiscing of old memories, reliving the old moments,reconnecting with old friends,reflecting on some old thoughts...

Life got a whole new direction with the chosen career in management supplemented with the interesting field of HR..Visage, the inter-collegiate fest true to its name revealed a new Face of myself as an multi-task manager...

The First Internship experience gave an insight about the vast corporate world waiting ahead..It added to the existing learnings and experiences..

It was a year where there were lot of additions and deletions as well..Both brought their share of joys and pain..It was also a year of never-ending arguments,debates,conversations but also in some cases a never ending silence...

At times long days surrounded by loads of people but at times long nights of loneliness..

It was a year with some days filled with endless work, sleepless nights and some days filled with absolute emptiness..

It was a year with its share of debit and credit, profit and loss...But most important it was a year that was enjoyed to the fullest...

Thanks 2011 for all the above and looking forward to a more exciting 2012!!


HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012!! :):):)

Time flies but the bond remains..

Recently I attended my best friend's wedding..I am so happy for her..Through the entire ceremony, I kept remembering all the sweet memories spent with her..Like all best friends, we too had our share of differences, disputes,arguments to the extent that situations did create a never ending like distance between us..But on her Big day all I could remember were the happiest moments we enjoyed together..There was a feeling of being 'grown up'..As she was beginning with her new phase in her life, I suddenly realized what an important part she has played in my life...Its funny how you realize somethings in just few seconds and some others take a lifetime...:)

Time flies so quickly..Life moves on...But the bond between us remains forever..I think certain relationships donot need frequent conversations or interactions..They are meant to stay with us for lifelong..Though we may not meet often but the bond that created a long ago still remains and will continue to remain forever..I think thats the success of any relationship..Di,I am happy and fortunate that I could be a part of your life..Wish you all the happiness and peace in the new phase of your life..

Priority Vs Time

People say there is nothing like lack of time...its only a matter of priority.. In some cases, its absolutely true...

Be it meeting/ calling up a friend, taking time out for a walk, sparing time for oneself, or learning a new thing or in my case updating this blog...Its always a war between Time & Priority...

The success lies in matching your time with your priority... Time can't wait & priority shouldn't wait... But we always blame it on lack of time..because we never get our priorities right...or rather we never figure out our priorities...

So I think the real war is between you & your priorities!!

Reflect on this..you will know by yourself...:)

Random Thought

It's really painful to say goodbye to someone that you don't want to let go but its even more painful to ask someone to stay if they never wanted to stay.....

Pathos

You held a wild flower in ur finger tips
Idly u pressed it to indifferent lips
Idly u tore its crimson leaves apart..
Alas! It was my heart...

You held a wine cup in ur finger tips
Lightly u raised it to indifferent lips
Lightly u drank & flung away the bowl
Alas! It was my soul....

Power vs Power

Many times in life, we come across situations that make you rethink..revisit your approaches,values,principles..

We are always taught idealistic approaches when people in the outside world are so realistic..even when they are on the so called wrong path..

To choose between responsibility & ethics is difficult at times..may be having power makes a difference..bt the real fight is between the power in you & the power you have achieved..

Power within you makes your value system stronger...whereas power you achieve gives u strong place in society...

But its even a tough call to take when you have only one power with u...power within you.. Can that power always help you in makin the correct decisions...?

Can the power in you give you the strength to oppose some one with Power??

Can that power win over the other power???

Need your reflections on this...:)
