A rainy day in chennai( a day in my life )


It was a boring day .I didn’t feel like doing my project report. It's my Best friend Beatrice Birthday today and she is leaving to bangalore tonight to pursue her career. The chit chats, photo and cake cutting session was over.
I managed to convince my dad to take me to a telugu movie (Godhawari) that evening. Being in Bombay, I really miss watching nice telugu and tamil movies. It was an cute love story. I liked it a lot. On my way back to home, it was heavily raining and I was just enjoying the drive. My dad was talking to me about his early married life when he used to watch telugu movies with mamma in the same hall and used to return home with a heavy heart thinking of all the difficulties and uncertainties in his newly started business, the huge responsibility and pain in managing a family and other things. He thanked God that he had walked a long way from there.
A day in my life... I’m done with my summer project, nothing to worry about, no Mr.Rangan(my boss at ABN)to question me, nothing to study, no college tomorrow, no commitments, no responsibility, lot of friends and I was amidst the best of the people but still something was troubling me. I had gone through an extreme lonely phase in my life few months back and today I know that no amount of money, knowledge and even professional success can ever give you as much happiness as being amidst loved ones. But life is never so easy. You’ve got to get out of your shell to see the realities of life where you explore, learn and prove your worth.
Well, I was just talking about something troubling me right????I'm still pondering on it. I'm wondering why I get so bored so often. Guess, I should get more focused at work.
I'm quite excited about getting back to college and I m looking forward to a better me, at least this year. To come out of all my mental blocks, to accept that success comes before work only in the dictionary, to be more independent, to have more fun, to expect less and to give more, to accept people for what they are, to dream more, to enjoy every moment in life and to be myself, a very cheerful person who is truly happy despite the small ups and downs in life. Sometimes, not having any problems becomes the biggest problem in life because you tend to lose focus and fail to realize the purpose and meaning of life. Well, I‘ve still not discovered the real meaning of life but I ‘ m sure I will, very soon.


“As you struggle for survival has subsided, the question has emerged: survival for what? Ever more people have the meaning to live, but no meaning to live for”

Well, life is a prison term lasting as long as the prisoner lives. The purpose however varies based on counts.

That was a nice little quote at the end. Nice to see folks as young as you, still have time to think, and ponder about, things that are rather imponderable to the majority of humanity.

Good post. I liked reading it. A snippet of a life that will probably never cross mine - yet heartening to read it.

Cheers,
