Welcome To My New World
Posted by தம்புரா on January 27, 2008
Hi Dear,Hey, my very first post. So excited about the whole thing. Was thinking of creating my blog for a long long time, but never really got around to it. Finally did it today!This is gonna be My New world. Hope you enjoy my new one !!
Lemme start my blog with something I have been with, a few months back in India. It is called ‘Smelling the roses’. Here goes:8.00 A.M. Morning alarm goes off…….
8.10 A.M. You get out of bed grumbling……..
8.30 A.M. A quick glance at the headlines in Internet…….
8.45 A.M. Go for a bath……..
9.00 A.M. Decide your schedule for the day………
9.30 A.M. Start for office……..
11.00 A.M. Reach office…….. Doing all Crap things.
8.30 P.M. Reach home from office…….have dinner, watch T.V., go to sleep……Sounds familiar? This is the normal daily routine for most office goers of today.
Whatever be your role in the organisation, you have to slog it out. You have to give your best in order to survive. Times are tough.You leave for work when the dawn has just(For me??) broken and reach home hours after the sun has set. Chances are you are becoming a workaholic, just like thousands of other career-minded people. “There is no time to stand and stare.” So when do you smell the roses?
Meanwhile, I have ensured that I take the time off from my busy(??) schedule for a friendly chat with that long-lost college pal. Take the time to reply to all those e-mails/calls received from well-meaning friends and relatives. Take the time to have a word with your parents. Take the time to hug and tell a sweet something. Take the time to affectionately pat the back of your neighbour’s kid and say ‘Hi!’ to your neighbour. Take the time off for your favourite hobby. Take the time to listen to the music in the morning. Take the time to gaze at the stars. Take the time to feel the cool breeze on your body. Take the time to count your blessings. Take the time to thank everyone for the little pleasures in life.
Stop to smell the roses every now and then and you will find that the grind of life has suddenly become more bearable.
To be Honest,……I have done that, Dear!!
Wishing You A Happy Life Forever and would always love to meet you here in the City of Roses!!
Love You, Buddy!! ;^)
