So, what happened???

A fairly long time before I put in a post, so decided to correct the wrong. Well, I graduated out of IIM-A and stepped into the big, bad corporate world.

As part of my first engagement, I needed to travel to NYC. (What, US again?) So, keeping my long standing relationship with US, I stepped into Newark Airport and said 'Hi' to the immigration officer at the airport. His response was 'What happened?' I guess he must have seen my F-1, H-1B, J-1 and now my B-1 visa and just couldn't imagine why I had not stayed back in US after all!!

I moved on, but the question kept ringing in my mind - 'So, what happened?' I don't know what happened. I don't feel very much in control of my life and I don't know what life has in store for me. I have embraced uncertainty into my life and I don't have a clear picture of what I want to do. I don't have any solutions towards my long-standing goals, and I have begun to compromise. Everyone has to compromise, but does compromise also mean that you have failed? Again, the present state of mind answers back, I don't know.

So, I'll leave it at that - I don't know. Uncertainty, the dark cloud of existence, I embrace thee for I know not what I do.

Getting older...

The good thing about getting older is that you have so many memory lanes down which you can walk, and reminisce of old times.

The bad thing is that its so easy to get lost in them!
