For one last time
It is when a person dives into the water will he know whether he can swim or not, even after all the training. It is when a batsman know how to bat when he faces the bouncers from a fast bowler or a flipper from a leg spinner. I mean, everyone have their platforms where they are tested and pushed to the limits. I had mine too, a platform. An excellent one. Physically stressful, emotionally tough but sweet at the end of it. The adventure was something I can always get back to. Even though it didn’t pay me in currency, I had my salary, my reward, everyday. Yes, everyday. On that regard, it was a smart move to shift to a job that paid me daily instead of once a month.
I had no intentions to plan my career as much as I was trying to get exposed to the reality outside and learn from people. The intention was to travel and interact. The intention was to build an experience. If I look back now, the justice has been given to it, and given well. And it is obvious I think, that I have found a direction now to my career as well. It is of course a bigger adventure. I just couldn’t settle for anything lesser to what I had already experienced in life. Which means, the risk that is following my decision is humungous. The mind is a bit vary though about it, but the heart says, it is worth a shot. And so, I am taking it.
I feel confident now to hit the road again, but the energies for it is a bit sluggish. The recent surgery had its effects on my body. To have developed a network and to establish myself in a particular space of work has taken a lot of efforts and some wild travelling. Now, I feel, I am there, doing what I am happy doing. To keep a long story short, 2015, has been the best year of my life so far. Not because it was physically stressful and not because it was emotionally tough, but because I was able to manage myself through all these things quite well. And more importantly, at the end of it, I am left with an idea. Well, after three months, I am travelling again. All’s well that ends well.
I intend to package all that I have learnt this year and continue on my new found love and get back to work. I think I have had enough of looking back. Nothing that I have done last one and a half year will fetch me a high paying job. But it has changed my life. It is difficult to get back to work for someone else’s vision. I stand at ground zero, looking ahead on the life I have decided to live, with a lot of hope.
