Random Musings

Here I am at 9:45 pm, sitting in another hotel room. Life has recently become a set of stops in hotels. Today check into Pinnacle, tomorrow into some other hotel. Today in the eastern part of the country, tomorrow the western. As I sit in this hotel room, I am wondering how fast life has moved in the past 6 months. It’s surprising that now when I look back, I realize today is the day I complete one year in both the big 4’s put together. Yes it’s been one year since I became a “consultant”. I have moved –yes- from the city that never sleeps to the Detroit of India. I have moved back to my loved ones but not a lot has changed.
For the first time in my life, last weekend, my friends complained that I was not reachable. I was shocked and surprised at the same time. It was hardly surprising though-I missed a lot of their calls. But I was angry on how hypocritical people have become. I mean these were the same people I would call a million times but not get angry if my phone was not picked up. But then I realized why I should prove a point. Let my ego go.
Life they say is a set of experiences. In this fast paced life where we have no time to look back at our experiences, I wonder are these experiences really worth it?
Here I am in a city which seems so silent in the evening. I braved the heat to go out for a walk and realized how little things that go unnoticed so many times could be so beautiful.
I am reading an article in one of the leading magazines about the rise of “Didi” and “women power”. Let’s hope that the changes are for the best of people and people have chosen wisely.
I have not been seeing any movies lately neither have I read anything –so no reviews. I am eagerly awaiting the clash of two titans-Man utd and Barca. Hope Man Utd. get another title to add the huge tally
