I'm writing this post after a while, ...yep...lately I was thinking that the most useful thing I've contributed through this blog is some good technical stuff!.........apart from that everything else was crap!! Though it sounds a bit negative, but it was(you guys already knew this!!).
So after some introspection I've came to a conclusion in my life is that........lets do something meaningful, let's write something that creates a impact, that shows the intellect, that brings out the juice of my experience with life.... and here we are........with a post that is the end of my crappy blog posts and dawn of new life!
So what I'm up to till this point in time, hmmmm......... I'm a software engineer(yep I do write code! and love to!!), I've do give time to my hobbies .....strumming my guitar, and clicking pics with my room-mate's camera!.....got my dream bike..."ThunderBird".....and handful of friends....whom I can bug every time!......but hey that's not it ......I always felt that there's something missing.......
........did I've got everything that I always wanted to ......yep....almost......nope.....not really!
Yes few things in life are not always straight forward, and last statement was an exact fit for that! So what I'm trying to convey is not that ...... after walking few years in corporate life I've become institutionalized but now I know that I can't be!!
So after some deep introspection I've thought that I'll do whatever I love to, with the same passion and devotion which started fainting during the institutionalization process......the mad rat race is not meant for me, that doesn't means that I'm not going to compete but yes, the goal and the focus would be different this time!
What is the best thing I've done till this point in time in my life? .......the answer comes directly from my heart..... nothing!
.....so what the hell am I going to do?.....one word......giveback!!
We are so much engaged in cosmos in and around us that we never felt that there are people who don't have even the basic amenities of like sanitation, education and good health!.....there are communities who don't have even access to clean drinking water!....there are kids who don't have an access to basic level of education! ......and many more....as the list can be endless!!! ..... and even if we do ......we do the same thing which comes directly from my heart .......yep you are right again....Noting - is the correct answer!
We sit in our air conditioned cubical's, wear the branded stuff, carry the latest mobile gadgets, never miss those weekend movie shows and ........last but not the least....never forget to crib on things like our boss, work, administration and on our lives! ....but what's the point of these things here?
......it has when you think about the people who are directly or indirectly building this country,.......people who work in hazardous industries like mining, construction etc., did you ever thought what happens to the kids of brick maker or a laborer, who works for twelve hours, to feed his family for a day, what happens to his education? How that kid is going to get out of his father's profession?
Go out to any of the construction/mining site near your place, you'll get the same pictures in your mind which I've this point in time! I don't know but I'm not able to forget those innocent faces, those cheeky smiles and those needy hands.......!
.......and yes, that's what I call the beginning of transformation, from a software engineer to a human being!.....and I've realized it today!
.......guys I'm not against any gadgets, trendy-ness or watching movies, but just try to emphasize that we do spent a lot of time on us(family & friends) but,.....just try to take out some time for others, whom you never even taught of or even if you did, never taken a step out of your living room to do something!
......as they say......
"the best time is now!"
I've heard this voice from my soul, and have joined an non-government organization called SANTULAN, which works for quarry workers, fighting for their rights, education for their kids and health and sanitation issues.
..........so far today was one of the best days of my life! I'm feeling proud that I'm pursuing what I always wanted to(coming out of my living room)!
