This day I woke up to complete my One year stint at Sasken , the company that gave me my first job and welcomed me exactly one month out of college !!
To be truthful ONE YEAR sounded really amazing . . it had been like yesterday since I left home to kick start my career in Bangalore. With wishes pouring in from Parents, Friends , my own Batch mates who joined with me and Colleagues elated me. Having had one of those best days in office I travel back to my room as usual in one of those metropolitan busses of this city.. The traffic seemed to move inch by inch. I leaned over the window reminiscencing.. the year had gone like a blink of the eye. I had learnt a lot. This city had given me new and wonderful friends who I cherish till day and will do so in the future. It has introduced me to people who hug your heart and also to stand alone , battle and survive . My work place has been a wonderful place. It has always presented me with moments of pleasure. . there had been times that I wanted to capture those moments and retain them forever so I can keep playing them on my Mental Playist in a continuous loop. The man I work for , my CEO remains a man of inspiration to me. The days I walk in at 9.30 in the morning and he jogs in past me wishing me cheerfully though he only knows me as a fellow Sasian has taught me of being humble always .. The many encouraging pats and technical learning with people who make working a pleasure has done a great deal of re-structuring to my attitude. The city , its people and my work place has embraced me with all warmth and love . . .As of parents I have done my best to make them feel proud about me. Dad hasn't changed in all these years , he still keeps boasting of his little girl's success as he used to do when I won a fancy dress competition during my kinder garden. Mom feels I have grown to become a responsible young lady ! ! Perceptions of people have changed and ask me what I feel about them ? I don't know to be honest .. I hold on to my dreams and aspirations ... my quest continues slowly as my journey is not done yet. We (my training batch mates who joined with me and myself) had gone to Kerala during the beginning of this week to celebrate our one year of togetherness. God's own country as they call it has filled my jar of memories with sweetest candies ever. . Those lovely moments I had in each outing in this one year flash across my mind.
ahaa finally my stop arrives I hop down and walked the street that I've been walking for the past one year - CMH road , Indira Nagar . With the street buzzing with life and the metro training silently swishing above my head I walked to my room humming loudly. Strangers smiled acknowledging my happiness. .
And finally when I go to sleep tonight I have a few things to say ..
Dear past : I'm glad you had taken the right decision... though it had hurt at times , it's okay cos you din't know it would. . still you gave me the best
Thanks to the almighty for everything :)
