zen and the life of 23 years

[ There was a star danced, and under that was I born -William Shakespeare ]

THE calendar says October 14. Two more days and I would have completed 23 years on this planet. Whew…hmmm… (Tongue tied)

I think this is the time to look back or am I too young to reminisce, don’t know! Its been a good life. Not that it couldn’t have been better but then it could have been a lot worse too. That’s the problem with being a Libran; you think both sides of anything. I bet that if a Libran were asked to jump into a pool of lava he would be considering the merits and demerits of a back-flip and kick-drop. Had a lot of losses and a lot of gains and still more losses and even bigger gains. Kinda like a mixed up bag, but then, I suppose everyone’s life is the same. Remembered something I read somewhere – “You are unique, just like everyone else”

...................Today the calendar says November 11th. Almost a month later I am completing this...............

I can’t believe how much my life has changed in this one month. Not changed, but it has been a quite an eventful month.

The birthday I had, made so special by my special friends, Musheer; who was there with me all the time, Div; who was away but felt close, Pavi; my official secretary of the day, Bidisha; who came all the way from Pune, Nirupesh; The tech net, Dot; who gave me the most cherished gift, Krits; who couldn’t stay for long, Vinnae, Vidya, Naveen, Sweet Karma…………

I am so late in updating the blog. Well, what to do? Did not have much time to sit, contemplate and type coz I was running around. What was I running around for? Hmm…tricky.. Well why don’t I leave that for other posts?? Coz, journeying a 1000 miles in search of a friend's true love, trying to quit the job and failing, Your best friend and partner leaving the company, speaking out things that were hidden in the depths of my heart, finding something that was not quite what you wanted or what you expected…..all these are things that take a lot of time, space and leisurely disposition. Wait……
