I , me , myself

"Sir...Im still not sure if I should leave the job or not..."

"Vishnu, its high time u decide what u want to do in life and since u have been running after MBA for the last 2 yrs, I guess it is the right step for u"

I decided it was time to quit my job. I received a nice farewell hug from a person I feared the most when I joined the company. I was now entering in to an uncertain yet an exciting world.

It has been 15 months since, but I am still not sure as to what is the one thing I am looking for in my life. There are so many around me who seem so sure of the careers they want to pursue, but here am I, a soon to be 25, who still is searching for some answers. Why did I leave my job??? Was it because I seriously hated to be part of the IT world or was it because I was really bad at it and did not have the necessary craving to put in those extra efforts to overcome the obstacle. But did I really care????

All throughout my life I have been blessed with people who cared for me more than they did for themselves. My first job however gave me the true taste of the corporate world. It sure was competition and people around me were just waiting for an opportunity. I was not prepared for it. I was still living in my own world where a friend meant everything. It was time to wake up. But sleep is all I wanted to do.

So I quit. My two years of struggle landed me at a prestigious institute. I was so happy to be back to college. But here was the difference. The place was full of people with big appetite and even bigger aspirations. Probably I was the only one who had come to enjoy. But then I met a person who shared the same interests as I did. There was still a world of fun available.

6 months have passed by and I still stare at uncertainties. But I am not scared. I want to live a happy life. Want to take up so many things. There is the bike ride to the heavens in the north which is still pending and some day the mountains of Dunedin will surely have my footprints imprinted on it. That’s something for the future.

This is just one of the few things I always wanted to do. Writing is something which has always enthralled me. I am an opinionated person; have to talk about anything and everything around me. Always wanted to put those thoughts and opinions in to words, but this is the first time I am writing something. Hope to continue this on a regular basis.

Till then I have to be honest towards the task I have taken up. I sure will be. I wont quit..........
