Been Happy
Year 2011. It indeed was a good year per se. I joined PDS, had a great accomplishments at career, got promoted, bought a flat. Well, why do I always talk first about work?! Well, that's the only thing which has never put me down, which never disappointed me. At personal front, still a single and I have no regrets about that. I have never been this happy before. I really am happy. Proof, I am 3 kgs over-weight. Never in my life did I exceed my ideal BMI index. I continued my aerobics classes. Started learning Japanese language. Personally I have grown so much this year. I have become so detached, independent.
Wait, wait for the dawn my dear
Prior to this any small issue in profession or personal life, I had to call up someone and talk over it. Not just one call or one person. It went on till the problem got solved. Most of the times it was not even a problem. So, thanks to all those people who could bear listening to my gibber. So I learnt that all I had to do was just sleep over the matter. Talking or cribbing really never helped. It only augmented my anxiety. On the other side keeping calm did help me through the matters. I just had to wait and watch and things got resolved on their own or rather most of the times they needed no resolution at all. This is a great improvement in my personality. And this meant cutting off those people from my life whom I used to call up for each and every silly thing. I am not rude, am not an opportunist nor this means in-gratitude. It was good for me and for them.
Forget and Forgive
I had taken a major[really?] decision at the beginning of this year which needed lot of courage. And I could come through it. Initial few months were hell and man I can only thank you, GOD, Fate or whoever or whatever it is, for where I am. For giving me that courage to face the situation.
I crib very less these days. I have a perfect schedule that keeps me busy, that keeps me energetic. I know how to keep me active, how to keep me happy. Sometimes I am so happy that I do not want anything to change. And that is when marriage topic scares the hell out of me. At this point I really am not sure if I really need someone to live with for a lifetime.
There is one person on this earth whom I can never ever forgive and nothing can change this. But surprisingly am able to forget and move on. I am not whiny anymore. I am not letting anyone take my precious time to make me feel sorry for myself or to get angry. I had a great birthday this time unlike last year. Life has always blessed me with good people around me. Touch wood.
Two Great Personalities I Got To Know
Well, am still a movie buff. I was watching Iron Man series. Liked Robert Downye Jr. and started watching all his movies. One among those is "Chaplin" movie based on Charles Chaplin book "My Autobiography". Somehow, I missed all these geniuses before. Charles was such a versatile person who was into acting, music composing, directing, writing. He really was a genius. It is such a hard task to make people laugh. As a person he was flawed but he was great at what he did and what he gave to the world.
Yes, I still read books. I really hate biographies or non-fictions. I could not get myself to complete any non-fiction books. But wow. Kudos to Walter Isaacson. Biography of "Steve Jobs" is an awesome book and my second bible [ after Fountainhead]. And Steve is GOD. What I liked in both Charles or Steve is they loved their work more than anything else in the world. They lived on their success at work. It was the fuel that kept them going. They really were passionate people who stood up for what they saw the world as. Which is also a nature of mine and many think am a workaholic, that I take my job too seriously.
All in all thank you and goodbye 2011. Welcome 2012.
