13march.....

16 jan'06. gurgaon is turning out to be a nice city - am beginning to settle down and appreciate the almost township feel.
when i arrived, i was skeptical for sure. i was expecting a 'culture shock' of sorts especially since i was in bombay before this. but things are not bad.. so far so good!
*touchwood*

27 jan. life gives us a share of tears and smiles, joy and pain.. upto us really how we want to live it. what we wish to be grateful for, what we wish to learn from our troubles and mistakes, who we want to become as we travel through life.
despite the struggles that i sometimes get bothered by, i know i am truely blessed. and therefore, am happy and content, even on a day when i feel like i do today..
and like i say. life continues to be beautiful, because there is so much more to it than what meets the eye at any point in time.

10 feb. is it a beautiful morning or wot in gurgaon!!! it is gorgeous. dilli ki sardi is back after a bit of a hideout session. the beautiful crisp fresh winter air is back. aah, breathe in.....!
lovely, aint it? :)
and dat's not all. i drove through fog this morning. aah, it was quite an experience. made my day. reached office so delighted. and it's friday! i dont wanna work!!

20 feb. just returned from a trip to bhubaneshwar - i travelled on work to manage a consulting workshop assignment. it was a good learning experience. lots of hard work. hardly slept in 4 days. but it was an enriching experience at the end of it.
i should be enjoying my work much more than i am because i really love this new space of HR Consulting.. it is quite different from what i have been doing the last decade.
i think i need to compartmentalize my life better and ignore what is worthless and draw happiness and satisfaction from what is worthy. i shall strive to do that.

21 feb. another foggy start to the day in gurgaon! but it cleared up really quickly, so slightly disappointing..
listened to iqbal's songs on the way - they give me confidence, inspire me to be strong and manage my life well.
one of my favorites is the song aashaaen...
toofanon ko cheer ke, manzilon ko cheen le
aashaaen khilen dil ki, ummeeden hasen dil ki
ab mushkil nahin kuch bhi, nahin kuch bhi....
