Sunday-1- 'everything which shines is not gold'


Hey guys... since a long time I was thinking to write something... but was confused about what? There wasn't any sensible topic I was getting... and even if I get it used to get lost in the air by the time me reach to desktop...


So today I thought just to start randomly & write something without any topic...or with the flow however it comes! Like what I have decided with my life!!! I wanted learn many things, dance, music, cooking... I want to be someone great in many fields... I want to have settled life with a good partner... with great job & money...


For a long time I was just running behind the 'Life' term... I was trying to prepare for so many things & was planning them out... but nothing was happening as per jotted! I did not understand what was missing... Overall I found just increased stress... and thought to let it go ...the way it wants…'my life' ... it’s a flow I can give it a direction but can’t halt it for myself...!


So in that flow I just found myself settled...mm can’t say settled ... just 'entered' in a new office...new location with a new environment... & new souls! Though few souls were there, whom I knew since a long time..!


I was worried about settling down in this new office... I was really wasn't ready for this change, but my need made me to join this office!


I was still missing my 'X' office; I doubt many of you do that...! But I did...I do still!


I miss the celebrations we did… the jokes we shared …parties we had and the comments we used to pass over the boss! But still I was bugged up over there due to lack of good work... official politics … no increase in salary & finally 'lay off '! I wanted to leave the office & join somewhere else. I did think so, but I waited for my double salary... (Don’t you know you get double salary when you get 'laid off 'from office).


And after that life was truly empty... due to lack of office hours. I started to prepare for GRE exams but couldn’t concentrate... that emptiness was too starving... I started job hunt... and one day I got a call from my college professor to join over his team in the firm he was working! So I am here... Well this office is kind of different... than what I thought.... I remembered 'everything which shines is not gold' that was true with my earlier job, that office was with shiny & polished interiors & good looking receptionist & HR…but in real I just found a coal instead of gold...


So when I entered in new office I was kind of confused but happy seeing condition over there. The interior just competes with any municipal office so I thought the work could be pretty good & 'see it is’! I am enjoying it besides having long hours of O.T. and over work. It’s tiring still gives a satisfaction of work.


In my life first time understood that, the above idiom is ‘true’!!
