What A Day !!!


Today was hectic. Literally. I needed to deliver something today and the day started with the memory of my manager in my head chanting why it is very necessary. Was planning the day in my head gazing at the empty ceiling. Thank God there was power when I woke up and I got ready in time, rather than waiting for the power, to heat the water.

When I reached the office, security stopped me from the basement parking siting some 'skidding leakage'. Upstairs I found that the AC is off because of 'something smelly' in the air. Was struggling to keep the heat off opening the windows.

Later found that diesel from the generator was leaked and that was the reason for skidding at the parking lot !!! Around 35 liters of diesel on the floor... And it was the smell of the diesel that made AC air smelly !!! Great day !!!

And when my mentor came in he was visibly shaken. He just taken an accident victim to the hospital. On the Indiranagar flyover, of the couple of ladies on scooter, the pillion fell and hurt her face and head. He stopped to get them to the hospital and get his shirt and car dirty. More than that, the wound and blood made him dizzy.

By evening read the news about the fire in Carlton Towers. May the souls rest in peace.

It could be our office on fire today.
I would have tweeted ' my office is on fire, pray for me !!'

Looking back, I am grateful to be alive. Thank you for all the Love and prayers you shower on me.

Too Hot To Handle...


The Garden City is loosing it's pride for being cool city now. It is just February, hardly the summer, and life is tough already. It is reaching 33+ C and is going up. Just last week, it was much cooler. I needed to keep my door and windows shut, wrap head to toe in blanket and switch off fan by midnight to prevent shaking with cold. These days I hardly wrap myself, keep the doors open ( windows I keep shut ;) ) and keep the fan at full speed always. Still in the morning I feel tired and restless, because of the lack of 'quality' sleep. Add to it, most of the day there won't be power in the morning. How could we cope with summer.... no clue...

The skin is affecting too. I was surprised to see that the lips will crack in summer. It is due to the humidity factors it seems. These days humidity is at a low level too.

Last weekend I was home in Keralam. There too sun was hot. But not cruel like the Bangalore sun. It was hot, but not baking like here. It was not like sucking every ounce of energy and happiness as here.

I am drinking a lot of water, made the two time bathing into cold water and try maximum not to be out in sun, and when I need to I use my umbrella. The violet umbrella looks odd in the crowd, but it helps me from headache. Hope this will not last long and as the weatherman says, the summer rain will come soon...

Making The Next Step



I am scared, very scared...
Why...
I can not stand here anymore.
I need to make the next step.
Why should I be scared about it...
That is because, though I know that the end result of it will be good, I am not
sure of the outcome.
There is a great chance that I will blow up what I got now, and may not gain
what I am planning to.
So, though it is not at all a solution, I need to choose what I got now.
Sounds great...
It is crap

How long I will wait here to overcome my fear to take the next step...
How long will I stand here hoping everything will be good and not do anything of
my own...
I need to take the step.
Even if I will doom.
And I am doing it right now.
Wish me Good Luck
