Quater-Life Crisis ( feelings in when you are in your early 20's of your life) :

Yesterday, I was going thourgh my e-mails and came across one of the intresting e-mail which I recieved from my friend with whom it had been like month that we had talked. It was a forward but found it very true for me.

Here is what I recieved:


" Its really hard...They call it the 'Quarter-Life Crisis.'

It is when you stop going along
with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.


You start realizing that people are selfish and that maybe, those friends that you thought were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't really cold, catty, mean, or insincere but that they are as confused as you.


You look at your job...and it is not even close to what you thought you would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares you. Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself judging more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and are constantly adding things to your list of what is acceptable and what isn't.

One minute, you are
insecure and then the next, secure.

You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you. Or you lay in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love someone but love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you know that you aren't a bad person.

You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision. You worry about loans, money, and the future and making a life for yourself...and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!

What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it.

We
are in our best of times and worst of times, trying as hard as we can
to figure this whole thing out."


This turned out to be true for me upto quite an extent. But the last lines are encouraging to move on in life.

Show me the way:

Today I was looking at the Black sky,
Felt like moon had became a spy,
Reading my mind and smiling at my thoughts.

Days back there was a girl,
with high aim and firm vision,
confident about her plans to reach her goals.

Every step towards the destination,
Perfectly organized effort,
In right amount and direction were her work associations.

Sincere effort reduced the distance,
Bringing energy and surety,
that she can definitely make through all odds.

Today she is getting skeptic,
Not about her ability,
but about making headway to destination.

People convinced her,
That destination will be achieved,
But with leaving her there alone losing precious valuable moments of life.

Oh! Lord show the way,
Your child is so confused,
and trusts you blindly for her good destiny that you have written.

Give her some hints,
make her clear,
what should she do?
Oh! Lord what shall I do?

Strange Feelings:

This is a bit weird post but thought of putting into words what is going right now in my mind.Well, don't know what has happened to me since two days, especially after weekend of re-union.I am feeling right now lost..Everything is right at it's own place where it is supposed to be except me mind. I don't know what I am searching for or looking for. Everything is right yet seems wrong.

I don't know how to cope up with this situation.Actually, I want to go back to my graduation days and college.I know that is not possible. I just want to say with all of my those friends and also want my best friend krupa to be with me forever, which seems next to impossible. I feel like why everybody has to part ?why can't people be in a situation like they want to be? why time does not remain same as it was in my last college? Why we get just 2 days to meet? why few of them can't make it to reunion?

I know all these questions seem meaningless as we can't change the nature and destiny.but this is what I am feeling right now.I am more
successful at this stage. I have more comfortable arrangements at this point of life. I have more freedom , exposure, opportunity, friends etc. right now. But, still I right now feel like I don't want all these. I just want my that old life. I want to change my destiny. It is me only who says 'Whatever happens happens for good' , but right now I am not able to accept this fact.

Well, I hope to come out of these Blues as soon as possible to get back to routine.

Re-Union of Graduation Friends

This weekend I had been to Vidhya Nagar, a place where I had done my graduation.It was a marriage of my classmate.Well, to be truthful the marriage was just an excuse the correct reason was to meet my old friends. The wedding was good. We enjoyed it but I enjoyed more meeting my friends.

Believe me!! Meeting old friends is really one of the best things which can happen.I didn't realize how 2 days went away. Talking, watching movie, eating out, making fun etc. . . But after meeting them around 1 and 1/2 years found many changes in all of them. They all had matured a lot. They had become more serious towards life and everyone of them had a specific goals this time and they are also working hard on it. I was happy to see them like that.

I didn't feel like leaving that place after 2 days. I was just thinking why time can't stay just like this. But as the time goes on so should we. But well, had really good memories. I hope to meet them in future too. Sometimes we get so much busy in life that we miss these few little moments which showers happiness on us. Well, from my end Words had came out from my heart
"Friends Forever"

Convocation::

Day before we had a convocation in the Institute. As it is an institute under Mr. Anil Ambani, he was supposed to come but as usual the Promises are meant to be broken. Well, when it was announced that he wasn't able to make it up , the faces of the students flashed with disappointment.

The convocation started and the students again gained back that excitement. The speakers made few mess ups in pronunciations. Sometimes a person tries to speak in a stylish fashion but is unaware of the ruins being created by it. That was what done by the Director of the Institute. Didn't expect such mess up by him. Well, but overall the convocation was quite good. The chief guest was Mr. Ashok Soota (MD of Mindtree Consulting).

Apart from the whole function, the best part which I enjoyed was looking at every students face. It was enlightened with the happiness of the achievement. It also had the layers of happiness of meeting their old pals, talking about their lives in this institute. Memories are memories, whether they are sweet or bitter. All, memories make your time period flash so fast thinking abut it that you feel that why can't we stay in that sate forever. But it always has been experiences that when period pass away we value it the most.

Looking everybody, I realised I will be in that situation next year. After 4 months even I will have to leave this institute. This Institute has played a substantial part in building my individualism. Apart from academics, I have learnt many lessons of life. Even I have developed many habits (Of course good as well as few bad ones too), skills, self-confidence ,social dealing lessons, responsibilities etc... I can never ever pay back what DA-IICT has given me.Thanks a lot to DA-IICT for all my sweet as well as bitter experiences.Even bitter ones have something sweet in them.

"People don't enjoy their present as much as they do past through memories."

Memories are the best possible gift that can be given as we always remember those people related to our memories and value them for being there with us at that point of time.
