Back to Blogging....on the other side of river .....of life..

After how many months? may be an year?.....but I am back....inspiration from another blogger across seven seas and I am back to blogging business.The wheels of change have rotated too fast in the past year.....this time all the changes were pleasant.Or have I learnt to take things positively? I don't know.I have given away the Gazzetted Officer's Job. Morale is rocketing . SAP certification.....My God I don't believe I did it. mySAP solution consultant...sounds good....But .The journey hereonwards will be on a totally different path . It will be much different as compared to the previous one. There are dangers lurking on every step and an open and frank person like me can fall into them so easily . I will have to be cautious and careful as I proceed ahead . I am sharply aware of the fact that the coming days will bring with them lots of hardships , yet there will be days full of learning . What ever I may feel I know that a new period of opportunities has been ushered in my life . Lets wait and see what happenes......

The Society of Snow

They were young. A football team from Uruguay, flying to Chile. Boys with energy in their legs, laughter in their voices, parents waiting back home, girlfriends expecting phone calls, lives unfolding exactly as they should. Somewhere over the Andes, the ordinary collapsed. The aircraft struck the mountains, tearing certainty apart in a place where snow stretches endlessly and silence feels absolute.

Close enough to be heard. Close enough to be seen. Yet they remained invisible. Imagine watching rescue pass overhead and realizing you are still alone. Again and again. Food ended. Time stretched. Choices narrowed. Survival demanded decisions no human should ever have...

Conversations with myself

Conversations with myself . I believe very few people are endowed with the authority and character to advice and enlighten others. For all the rest like me, it’s more of self advice and self talk.

Objects in rear view mirror may appear closer than they are…….

I remember this song by meat loaf. I used to listen to it very often during my Engineering days. Meatloaf for one, used to intrigue me quite a lot. I never understood why a person chooses to dress, act and sing in a manner that makes him look so unusual? Why some of these western singers are so fond of looking weird? In search of elegant artistic expression that I was, I never found answers to these questions though I did find some depth and meaning in the songs of meatloaf as time passed. It was not about the songs, it was about the new references that I had found for myself, that these songs had become meaningful for me. This song was about the visit of Meatloaf to his native place where he remembers of a terrible plane crash that had occurred in his childhood .The rear view mirror of his car shows him objects at the back.
