Appetite for self construction ...

"You should be scared, be very very scared "....

How often in our lives do we get this feeling of accomplishment or a raging hunger for passion that makes you believe that the World should be scared of your plans. Remember that smile on your face when you knew you were upto something ? !

In the competing times that we live in, we often become slaves to our companies, even to ourselves. Going through the same routine at work without realising what lies ahead in store for us. Days and months go by and the time you realise you need a extra spark to your credentials, you are already looking at a huge backlog! Ever wondered what went wrong ? At what point in time did you loose the appetite to learn something new, to innovate and to do something not just for getting that fat pay cheque at the end of the month, but having a sense of satisfaction within you.

I believe we should always take time off and try to build that raging hunger within ourselves. A hunger that will not only engulf us but also those around us ! The feeling of being upto something and believing that ultimately you will get there is beyond the scope of my blogpost :)

During the course of our daily lives we end up on a perpetual fast, so it is evident that the hunger will soon retrun.

Bridging the G A P ...

5th February 2010, close to 18 months since my last blog post. It would be unfair if I just directly start blogging without providing any “re-wind” of the 18 months. 18 months ago something changed in my life. This change was not of smaller proportions and transformed me from the non-earning to the earning cadre. I was employed with Wipro Technologies in August 2008 and transferred to Bangalore. Lots of hope, expectations, challenges along with a heavy heart of leaving behind family and friends welcomed me to the IT Capital of India. I will not blabber much about what has happened within Wipro. The sheer excitement if financial independency and making it on your own is more that one could have asked for. My stay in Bangalore was close to 4 months and in these 4 months I was re-born, with added responsibilities and much more thoughtfulness. Later somewhere around November I was moved back to Pune (what seemed to me as impossible back then). Much closer to home and all that I ...

The Tougher Right , or The Easier Wrong ?

I read this quotation somewhere. I guess it was inculcated to us during our tenure as NCC Cadets. " Oh God! Please give me courage to do the harder right , than the easier wrong " This year has been full of surprises. It has actually brought out a revolutionary in me who always opted to make things correct. Some where hidden within each one of us is this revolutionary spirit. A person who tries to bring about a change in this world. But quite often this inner voice gets dampened by other worldly issues. But then , there is also a limit to everything. A time comes when you just cant take it anymore. The year 2008 started off with some of us realizing the deteriorating conditions at the MSc IT course. All through our course we were being taken for a ride. The utter mismanagement of the course and the lack of determination and professionalism on part of some of the professors is altogether another blog post. It was due to such pathetic conditions that some of us decided to voic...

How do you send an email to heaven ...

"xyz Wishes loved ones in heaven could be contacted by mobile phone, email and skype. " - This is one of the post I read on wall of my friend on Facebook. I shrugged it off in the usual non-sensical comic style that I apply to every situation or moment I think would not be possible to handle normally. Only that a moment later I got an email from Birthday Alarm reminding me that "Send a Greeting Card to Subhash Chandra Saxena for their Birthday on Sunday July 3rd". They even promised me that "if I chose their specially designed B'day cards they would deliver it to Subhash Chandra Saxena". Only that they do not know that it is an delivery that no logistics in the world can ever deliver ! The thought re-occured to me and has been in the corner of my mind since then. How I wish I could send a greeting to my dad one last time, or probably order the "Worlds Greatest Dad" t-shirt online and surprise him. Today as my mom pointed out earlier ...
