A walk down memory lane...


Its really surprising, how life can change,just like the weather does.
Ups and downs in life are passe' coz thats what makes life exciting but,major happenings that adversely affect u; arent always welcome are they???...
There comes a time in life when u feel everythings at a stand still...u feel stuck, stuck in the hands of time.Your patience to withheld all the blows just seems to die down...The driving force that once held u as a strong individual no more seems to hang on with you...The skies no more look bright blue, but dark n grey...The grey cover becomes so dense that u just cant help but wonder, whether there's evergonna be a silver lining to the clouds.Would the rainbow ever show again...
ahemm... am sounding too poetical n bookish i know..but isnt all this quite true...juz dat we as individuals fail to accept or rather express such feelings,in the fear of having urself stamped a coward,...its basic human nature...

There are times when u feel lonely among a crowd,There are times when friends n friendships take such turns that u seem to lose trust.Acceptance though at such times is the need of the hour...just doesnt seem to show up.Every possible ray of hope seems to have diminished...What do u do such times...u desperately need to get out of all this u desperately need a breather.. Just take a deep breath...think about the best that you have been and the best you can do.Such times, mere words of motivation from near n dear ones really work magic :)But theres onli one person who can help n thats "U"...self help is the best at such times:P
This sure is the advent of the quarter life crisis :P The later 20's
Ghosh....still cant believe i'm on to it too :P

For a brief flashback...
Cut 1 ...
College days were carefree times:) Friends n friendships played a major role...
It was a phase of knowing, exploring & whole lot of learning.Discovering ur potiential, a phase full of energy, with hoardes of dreams :)It sure was a super protected world then...
Cut 2 ...
The first job...The Indian Express Art team was a dream come true, it felt like all prayers were answered, that too a paid internship in the last sem of college, under a big banner was like a biggggg thing.World changed, life then was full of a whole lot of positive energy A gr8 zeal to learn absorb watever came in front... People and places taught gr8 lessons :)
Friends scattered, but new ones replaced the old, though some bonds remain special no matter wat :)
Cut 3 ...
The Rat race began...Looking up for a major career move, Zee Interactive sure sounded a cool new place to work with.Being a part of The Essel group sure sounded fab. e- learnin and the web at that time was quite happening n hot...Wat more could be cooler than joinin a new place wth you old college pal :) Yeah curly's company sure meant a lot :) Zils, was a great learnin place in a true sense, with gr8 team members, expert seniors and a cool management to go with life was good.
A year down the line animation caught attention n we were sure that it was gonna b the next career move:)Curly gota good offer,i hanged on for 6 more months :)
Cut 4...
Ah... Indiagames..guess i can write an entire book about this.Gr8 place gr8 colleagues :)
Life's sure bin happening since then.
To be precise indiagames bestowed Friends n friendships,Cool colleagues, Loads a lessons ;)tons of fun,Fab time gr8 work, yeah last but not the least "blessing(ahemm..) 4a life time ;)
3 and a half years down the line, it sure feels like family here.Though people have changed the roots remain... Finally its time 4a change, time to say good bye,it sure is a tough decision, but its the need of time.Good old days will always remain as bitter sweet memories.
