"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." - John Lennon
Here I am, sitting on a comfy chair, in the cubicle of India development Centre of the world's largest telecommunication giant, listening to unwell by matchbox 20 . When I take a glance around, I see people chatting with coffee mugs in their hands. I see people switching their PC windows from Orkut to Linux Sessions (I bet their reflex has never been so good) as their PM arrives. I too see people working hard towards Innovation to do some good to themselves and to this industry.
I have seen different kinds of people all my life. Four years of my college life has brought in a drastic change in me. I have sweet n bitter memories of my college life. A lot of good things happened to me in those 4 years, I made new friends, I got to learn a lot about life and did party a lot. But then, bad things had to happen too. Smoking being one of them and I still regret getting into that habit. I remember the day I got my first placement offer, I SMOKED UP with my friends till 5A.M. I did have fun during those night outs to the beaches, hill top and to the hanging bridge. But is that what I wanted from life??? I guess not.
(Now Playin Hanging by a moment , by Lifehouse) I was happy to get a Software job in an MNC of excellent Brand Name. But now why do I feel that this is not what I want from life? Now why the excitement of being independent has diminished. I had always made up my mind to take up MBA admission exams after 2 years of work ex. So why this new urge to pursue MBA asap has taken birth? Now why do I regret participating in those time killing parties during the final year of my college life? why do I feel that I should have sat in my hostel room at that time n should have studied for my MBA entrances?
And what if I am not satisfied even after my MBA degree?
There is no end to desire. There is no end to achievements. There is no end to life. There is no end to this rat-race. Nobody will be able to reach the finish line of this rat race. Every sense of achievement lasts for a short span of time. Life takes on our mind again and we resume our hard work, efforts and strive for excellence. Whatever we will do, there will be bigger things to pursue.
"Everything happens for the Good".... May be or may be not.
