Almost a month to the last post..but I'm back now. This year has been whizzing past,leaving me completely unfettered. I have no clue if I made sense but I was dying to use this word today, for some strange reasons which I rather not elaborate or else this post will be something else all together.
As evident from the title I have started learning my third language and after a strenous three hours i'm fast losing hope. French is just....too strange. its spelled wierd, its spoken weirder and after listening to it my brain on reflex does a quick shut down. So the self teaching route is proving tricky and i have decided to enlist the help of an expert though haven't quite managed to fit him/her into my tight schedule.
Though I'm sounding oh so busy I still have countless hours to fret about my life and dream all sorts of MBA dreams, you know the ones I'm sure, the dreams which are mostly about $$$ and some more $$$... :)
Sound so materialistic but there is another phenomenon underfoot. Absolutely unexpected from an MBA aspirant on the way to selling her soul (or so it is viewed in my culturally artistic group of peers), I am experiencing a spiritual epiphany! No, no god babble sorta stuff but more on the universe and the world of dreams etc etc. Gosh I was thinking not to write this, fearing I may sound quite the freak but it just escapes me.
Maybe like a big new year party, its the impending change and the fact that life as I know it will be altered significantly that is bringing it all on. And I'm wondering if any of you out there are having similar thoughts?
I shall explain. I've always been a sucker for signs and omens and sometimes just dream them up to convince myself that I'm on the right path but it works for me. I'm also suddenly a huge believer in the universal laws, though if you ask me I wont really be able to explain it. All I know is that if you want something so bad that it feels more like a need... it just happens. And that we can alter the world we live in by just altering the way we think or look at the world.... Ok I know I've lost you be now so wont go on, but indulge me a bit further.
On Monday morning, the day I usually hate as I run around with to-do lists etc I woke up feeling unexplicable happy. Not given to early mornings at all, this was rather unnatural. So I drive to work and without even knowing it, I'm totally grooving to the music and loving the world. Almost like a mild high of a loving drug. I wonder to myself whats happening to me, why this behavior? The song on the radio changes & this is what it says-
"Nayi Subah, nayi disha
Kyu mein hawaanon mein ghum raha hon?
Naya sama, naya jahan
Ab mein jahan se kadam mila chal raha hon"
{Translation - New dawn, new roads. Why am feeling like I'm on clouds? A new world and I'm ready to walk in step with the universe. (As close as I could manage)}
A red light and i stop. The car in front of me has a sticker, it says
"Angels are watching over you"
Hmmm, I asked a question in my mind and I get an answer in the universe. I laugh and look away, only to find myself parked next to a billboard showing a man on a hammock and a few angel fairies blowing him kisses. Never mind that the billboard was actually selling booze but the whole thing gave me goosebumps. And made my day too.
