I happened to come across this quote. As I pondered through it … I found it so true!
After all what is love? And why is everyone’s definition of it .. so very different , yeah! You guessed it right .
Because it depends solely upon each one’s imagination as to what each one makes of it!
Phew! I am relieved coz never having been in love is not so bad now ..I am just not imaginative enough :P
I calculated my marks – the way I have never calculated
Found out the marks of every year !
My aggregate has come upto 54.34%
Its not fantastic! But I am satisfied . . .
I asked myself why and got this answer :
Because my aim in these 5 years has never been marks
Marks – I used to forget about it now and then; it was as if I had this ‘Been there done that’ feeling about marks. (I had done well in my 10th , 11th and 12th) so I got bored of scoring (oh yeah that happens to me) … I even get bored of winning and that’s when I know it’s time to change the game .. I have this conquer and move ahead kinda thinking and then I never look back.
But then was I aimless all these years … I think NOT!
I had an aim for which I have scoured all possible articles, read every other magazine and book to get closer to my ideal!
Yess .. my ideal was and has been for a while .. just to shape me .. to artistically create what I want to make of Anu .. my mind is always churning new ways to cross that next road block that stops me from me becoming who I want to be …Which is why I am absolutely sure .. ill get there ...
A good friend of mine had actually told me once that in your race to get somewhere else , it shouldn’t be that you don’t stop and enjoy where you are :)
ohh kats ! how do you know me so well but then again of course you do .. because you are the only person who I actually update when I cross every other ‘road - block’ .. thanks for listening and never mind the ‘u r always saying something ’ attitude of your's ! huh! (winks).
So I am enjoying the ride and cherishing what I have actually achieved in these five years ..
I have achieved a kickass personality , THIS is my GOLD!
I now realise what Self-Motivation is all about . . .
I was travelling to college to study during my preparatory leave for my Semester 8 exams, when i bumped into this school friend of mine. She did seem thrilled to see me bt could/would not talk ..later i realised she could not as she had been practising for her play all of the previous day. . . but there was a serenity about her . . She was happy,satisfied and more importantly Content!
i envied her peace . . .
Soon she got up ,leaned out of the train and started taking pictures of the sun by the sea .
i envied her job. . .
Soon i heard myself rattling on and on to her about how unsure i am about this whole engineering thing and whether i am actually cut out for it .She heard me out patiently and then said you dont know what you are cut out for unless you experience it and rightly enough mugging from books does'nt make for experience as an engineer.
She then said you can be anything you want to be . . but for that you've got to know what you are NOT and what if This is what you want to be .This got me thinking what if i lose out on this 'opportunity ' due to my small- sightedness . . .
I now realise what Self-Motivation is all about . . .
I am more Self-Aware now and don't easily crib about life . . i watch my words now and more importantly my thoughts which is why that smile hardly leaves my face . . .
