I have been wanting to sit down and pen down about how 2007 has gone by and how i would like to welcome the new year, My plans ahead and what i look forward toooo.... as i realised that i have not done it, its already a month gone by...
2007 was a year with lots of ups and downs; rather more downs than ups. But i always learnt from all experiences.
I lost my grandpa on Jan 21st 07 ... he was a man of great will , self confidence and courage. This was the my first witnesse of a death of someone close to me. Death can bring life of near and dear ones to STOP; but death is inevitable and life of others has to move on. My grandpa also used to say the same words.
At work my increments we not good enough, i knew i contributed more than what was expected, but realised that it is not enough. "If you need more money then you need to know ways to impress your boss." A big lesson learnt. Make your work visible and audible else you be considered as a not enthusiastic and dumb person. This holds so true in case of my colleague Neha. I pity these so-called Established Organisations which not employee friendly and works only influences of the departmental heads.
Well the best thing about 2007 is that Vijay and I were able convince our parents and get our wedding dates fixed.... not only that Viju also moved to UK, he was trying hard to get a break in that country
Moving forward... there is so much to do and expect in future.. My marriage, moving in to new country, finding new job, etc etc.... I know its a big struggle... especially because both of us are struggling to settle ourselves in our careers. Which means no savings, desire to study further, desire of selfish needs of a human being like, a good cozy home, shopping, eating out, supporting parents, travelling and the list goes on... All this boils down to a problem called "Financial Crisis" and in 08 will see my life entering into this problem. There is only one thing that strikes me at this point of time, i.e
Life is a journey; it has ups and downs
Now lets challenge them all boldly.
And this my life I am gonna give it all
To my mission endlessly
