My search...

walking alone through the sandy beach,

watching waves coming and going back to sea.

after twenty years of my life,i am on my way,

in search of you,without any clue..

 

i started my journey holding your hands,

i crawled..walked and then we ran,

you taught me black is black and blue is blue...

i am in search of you,without any clue..

 

you made me touch the petals of flower,

smell the fragnance and feel the freshness,

and today alone i am holding this rose for you..

i am in search of you,without any clue.

 

we saw the sun from its rise to set,

made many challenges and won many bets,

and now the mornings are without any dew..

i am in search of you,without any clue.

 

we have climbed mountains and crossed dense forests,

explored deep sea without any rest,

and now those rivers have dried and trees are few..

i am in search of you,without any clue.

 

we have seen snowfall and dusty deserts,

enjoyed rain and splashed road side ponds,

and now the clouds are all gone and this weather is new..

in search of you dad,without any clue.

Campus 2 Corporate

Gigantic buildings, metro city life, cars, five star hotel like office, cafeteria with various cuisines, formal dresses, smart ID cards, personal credit and debit cards, offshore projects….This is what comes in our mind when we think of working in MNCs!!! 

But its lot more than that…. 

First day in office is always full of excitement but then with every next day the difference could easily be felt. Life isn’t any more ‘easy-going’. Waking up, running for bus, coming back at 8-9pm, then getting so much tired that nothing could be thought of except a sound sleep!! 

Days turning into weeks and then suddenly one fine day you realize that you are in a crowded fish market where everyone is in hurry…selling them… nobody has time to listen you and you are given a task to prove that “Yes..I am the best..!!” 

There are not any tests to score good marks…no teacher to grade you…no parameter of measurement…no one to guide you...no one to correct you…but still you are being given marks in every step you take…each eye is right on you observing how you work… how you behave…!!!

Every smiling face has its own algorithm, running set of instructions in its head, and calculating your proficiency in its manner. Happy-go-lucky life suddenly turns up into a so called Professional life where you are supposed to be mature enough to take flawless decisions.

It is simply on your own…Every evening when you return back, you just have one thing in mind... Where I am….? What am I doing…? Why am I doing…? 

But.. but.. but… Also a day comes and you get your first pay… “MEHNAT KI KAMAYI” and you call up dad saying “Hey dad I AM INDEPENDENT!!!”

And this is the moment, which charges you up for the next hard working month. And now, more dreams…more hard work...more success!!! 

Everything doesn’t come in package…!! If you want something you have to strive hard for it…!!

It’s just the beginning..!!!
