Lyrics which touch your soul .

Home is behind, the world ahead
And there are many pass to tread
Through shadow, to the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight
Mist and shadow, cloud and shape
Hope shall fail, all shall fade

Musings

"Everything quantifiable gets normalised in life,its the unquantifiable which cheers you up and makes life worth living"

Some thought which came up during a chat session with a dear friend..

Game over or Start New Game?

Its all a Mirage .


In this world of mirages
Where is the real you??

When you look into the mirror
Do you see a stranger staring back at you?

Then one day you decide enough is enough
I will get out of this room made of mirages

The minute you become the real ,original you
You are stripped off opportunities!

Why???

Coz you no longer talk like them,laugh like them or follow the rules they made.

So is it Game over or Start New Game?

Winds of Change .....Long awaited change

Should I feel pain for leaving this place and moving on?

For losing friends and colleagues I never had?

For the repellent coffee served with the omnipresent Logo staring at me?

For my Ego or intellect whatever you can call it being bruised during various sessions of highly inflated gyan..

 

I am glad for getting out of this claustrophobic place..a place called Office

Being surrounded by boxes n people who could be passed off as boxes.

Time for me to Breathe in some Fresh Air and try doing something more constructive with better boxes…opps better people.

The week that was.

Been away for quite sometime from the internet..not that I Missed it too much, my parents  and Bro were in Pune with us  the whole of last week..

Just can’t remember how the week went by…

 

Should tell u guys we had been to Bombay last Sunday and with the monsoon’s deciding to enter Mumbai  the same day ..we had a real wet Sunday…

 

We were soaked on the rain during out visit to Mahalakshmi Mandir… oour driver got lost with  the car…we thought my dad went missing. (he went looking for the car by hiring a taxi;).bro was drencher head to toe… as he went looking out for dad near Haji Ali…all this barefoot (chappals were left in the car) in Mumbai with the rain lashing out on us!!

 

The next major trip was to Shirdi… Which is a 5 hr drive away from Pune….the darshan went off well..not too many adventures there

 

My mom went berserk in Tulsiwadi… (it’s a major commercial area in Pune,,with all clothes/accessories/jewellary shop )..she made us visit the same area 3 times in a time span of 5 days!!

 

Now everyone is back on their respective home turfs…So going through somekind of Empty nest syndrome ….

 

We went back to our green friends house to meet them  after a long time,were just in time to catch a slide show on the habitats of a wet land in Aundh.My friend here is writing a book on the flora n fauna on BR hills,kalyan  have u by any chance met these people???,, they are from a group called Kalpavriksh

 

Looks like the coming weekend also we will accompany them to a Nature Trail trek.

People leave Managers and Not Companies.

 

 I read in an article,based on a Gallup Survey , which says that  in most  of the cases a person quits a job because of the Supervisor above him.

 

What do u think about it? Have you or anyone you know left an organisation because of a Supervisor?

 

How good /bad have your supervisors been?

 

Have they been the Mentors you hoped for or Just Passing the Buck Joe’s!

 

Do Share your views.

 

 I can forward the article to anyone interested.

 

The best line I liked in the article is-

 

" It isn’t the 100th blow that knocks a good man down. It's the 99 that went before."
