Valentine's Day 2018

A note on love
A note for love
Love,
Oh dear God again?
One love that puts a ring down the finger that's not mine.
One love for whom letting go was fine.
One love that never questioned back.
One love where love was all the lack.
To have a day to that.
Where you declare you're enough!
And secretly check his availability million times,
Where you end up detesting the cuties in love,
Force random poems to rhyme.
And why

- Abhishikta

Wish!

Because the wish was to buy my own diamond before a man does, or not!

Bringing in Valentine's a week early, hence.

Check.

Because the wish was also to travel abroad atleast once before the typical low budget honeymoon with khud ka Paisa or high budget honeymoon with sasur ka Paisa, or not!

Check.

End of THE Month

Here’s to the most fulfilling one month of my career! I have slogged and cried, spent numerous nights in deep depression of not being able to code like others, spent more days in controlled heart wailings in an environment that is vengeful, that is heartless.  The confident person that I used to be (am?) somewhere gets lost in the 9-7 office politics and the likes of it, post which which I feel THIS small, to which I go back tomorrow.

But the last month has been amazing and I would be forever grateful that it happened, without the money flow yes, but suddenly it does not seem so bad anymore. Europe with horrible back pain, Euope alone, Europe of heartbreaks, Europe of realisations.

My students from 25-55 together said “you are the best that we got” and I could not have asked for more. I taught, I taught, I taught. People listened, nodded, smiled, came back with questions and left with smiles. Finally found my call in IT which will be side-lined from Monday in the mad world and my one million needs, insecurities. My life takes the old turn now. Back to basics, or who knows.

For now, and this is a very rare event.
Thank You, Life :)
