LIFE is the GREATEST TEACHER

Yes, it is. And I couldn’t have learnt from it in the Past few months. I won’t be writing all about it, but I would request people reading this article to learn whatever Life has to Offer, looking out for little things which might help you become a Better Person later in Life. You know a Process called GROWING UP and becoming MATURE. Now this looks like a Sadist writing his heart out. No, it won’t be. I am still the same Person, with his ubiquitous line, “TENSION NAHIN LENE KA, BINDAAS RAHNE KA”.
And why hadn’t I been writing. It was because I was caught up in a Lot of things. Though I seldom use it as an excuse, but from the Last time I wrote something, I have done a lot of things.
Work took me to Manila in Philippines. An absolutely amazing place with it’s exciting Beaches, locales. It was my First Trip to this Country, for that matter, the First to a South-East Asian Country and I got a chance to mix with people of different culture, different ethnicity . I loved it all. Made lots of Friends, and I must say I totally loved my Stay there. One more considerable achievement was to learn the Work Culture there. Philippines got it’s independence from the US in quite the same time as India, but still it has the US Culture built in them. And I could understand why people going to the US seldom come back. Why is there a “Brain Drain”? I guess it has nothing to do with anything else other than the Work Culture. It is really exciting and suits many a people. But then again , but for the Work Culture , I think there is nothing Exciting about going ONSITE ( as the S/W Geeks would put it ).
I was so happy coming back to India after a long time to “MY OWN PEOPLE”. I got a vacation for quite some time where I enjoyed my Time with my Family. It was after a long time I was meeting them but then the wait was worth it’s weight in GOLD. I could attend the DURGA PUJA, the Biggest Festival for Bengalis.
And after returning back to my Workplace in India, Pune, I was again sucked into a lot of Work. But in midst of this, I could pursue many things. I did a lot of Photography which has become my Latest Craze. I was doing my Stamp and Coin Collection, my favorite hobby. I was stacking up a lot of Movies in my HDD and Laptop. Hey, I forgot to tell , I got a Brand New DELL just a couple of months . I was learning to use the whole lot of feature WINDOWS VISTA had to Offer. I was revving up my PULSAR 150 to speeds of 100km/hr. I got a chance to ride my BIKE after a long time and am thoroughly enjoying it. And finally, I was looking for a JOB Change, which I could successfully achieve as well. I made a lot of friends at my Workplace. There were lots of young people coming to our Company and I was lucky enough to be introduced to most of them, at a time when I am about to call it a Day at the Present Company.
I also started a Bad habit, because in midst of all the good things I have written in the paragraph above, it cannot be all hunky-dory. I have started drinking a lot. Am trying to let go off it, and I am sure will achieve that soon.
It’s difficult to sum up a whole year in One’s Life in a few sentences, but then this is the Best I could have done. I think that from now on I would be writing regularly, so that my readers do not have to go through this Torture every time 
Though the whole write-up had nothing to do with the Subject Line , but as told i wanted to jusst give a message , rest is "what i had been all these years?"
Till next time, Ciao.
