Looking back at my life in 2008 and moving forward to 2009…

Its Jan 1,2009…
A new year,a new day,a new beginning…
But before this new start let me first thank all those who made my 2008 so special….
My thanks to all my friends who made every moment worth living…
Special thanks to HCL and in particular Sandhaya mam for giving me an opportunity to work for HCL… frankly speaking that was the biggest day of my life…
Thank thanks to my teachers, HOD sir and Medury sir because of whom i am what i am today.. yes An Engineer and above all with a respectable CGPA of 6.2… It was really unbelievable when i saw 8.9 SGPA in my 8th sem examination…
But this year was not all about these happy and successful moments but actually a very tragic or should i say the worst year of my life and in particular the date 11th August the day my Grandfather Sh. Lekh Raj gera passed away… If it would have been a natural death then i wont have written all this It was a shocking Accident…
I remember My grandfather once said “the day I’ll die take my funeral with a band” and it was he only who made me so mature about this stage of life… and i always agreed to him about this that its a part of life everyone has to die some time or other but God not like this, he was so healthy so active and he brought happiness to so many with his yoga lessons…
I still believe he’s still with me and because of him only i got placed and this CGPA…
“Daadu miss you lots….”
Moving ahead the last quarter of 2008 brought some very tough times for the entire world in the form of recession and everyone can still feel its impact…
But even in this tough time again thank to HCL for starting with our Japanese language training{as a part of their Japanese business program for which i was selected} on time.. Although its an unpaid training but i am happy i won’t have to sit at home and wait for my joining!!!
More than that The terror Attack on Mumbai rather i should say on India gave big blow to the entire foundation of this country and made major impact on the heart and soul of every Indian…
I salute all the brave men who gave their lives to protect my fellow Indians… and personally i feel its not the time to sit back and show our Mumbaikar or Indian spirit that yes even after an attack we are back to our work and daily life, i feel its time to fight back not just with the external terrorist but with the terrorists inside our country and inside the system yes i mean the politicians who made this a war of words and played with our sentiments… Its time to ACT!!!
2008 came to an end with me being with my best buddies @ midnight for the first time and with a drink and an awesome dinner….
And in the end I’ll thank my parents for being there always and for always supporting my over expensive lifestyle…
2009
I hope this year will bring some change to the global economic situation and i wish our politicians learn some leason from the death of so many innocents and will rise above this dirty politics…
I hope this year i start earning and can fulfill all my grandfather’s wishes and also can help my parents..
Looking forward to a great 2009
and also
WISHING YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR….
May the year ahead brings peace prosperity health and happiness in everyone’s life…
Sayonara friends OOPS… hum hain rahi pyar ke fir milenge chulte chulte!!
