That Crucial lists of firsts!!

It has been a long time since I have even opened my blog because I was busy looking for my own list of firsts!

The firsts(hmphh...) have always been special for me and the unforgettable ones. Ain't they special?

I guess every one would have such lists in back of their mind-the first time they used pens to write,the first time they traveled alone,the first time they met their special someones',the first time they cried for somebody,the first time they loved someone,the first job,the first award in life,first day to college,first movie hangout with friends,first kiss and what not...I have my own such crucial lists which has always been close to my heart.They have always left indelible imprints on my mind and heart.

Today,sitting back in the hotel room of some other city,I was thinking about how life has shaped up for me.I don't know whether I have been right in my choices or not but, some where in my heart I am satisfied that the things I have always dreamt are on the verge of taking place.

Few months back,while my friend was leaving the city,he said a few words to me,which are still  crystal clear in my mind.He just said-"This is the only time in your life which can make a difference altogether for all your life,make the best out of it!Don't fret over issues which hinders your happiness.Just don't care about things and people who are not meant to be important.Don't just think by your heart.Move up the ladder to success.Do something different than others,that will make a difference.This time won't come back ever again.Enjoy and nurture yourself!"

These words were enough to keep me on my feet .Few hurtful past incidents with few people were enough for me to keep that fire ignited in my soul.I worked hard.Some days I just fell down on my knees yet the other days I came back,stood up again and waited patiently for that one big thing to happen.That is when I got my first job.When I stepped in office for the first time,I promised myself that I will not look back in life in any manner.I won't search for people from my past and I will not go back to the special moments of my past life even though they were beautiful enough to be remembered.Past is past.period.

While working,I realised that its just not enough to grab a job.You have to perform well continuously.I did face a few barriers while working.There were times when I was just losing it all.There were times when I had doubted on my abilities and think Am I good at my job?Do I have those skills to be the best? I worked hard,I worked on weekends and what not.Eventually I started enjoying life,making new friends in office,living in a pg for the first.living independently and taking care of every household chores required to survive.One heck of a learning phase it was.Yes,the crucial list of firsts was in full force.In the meantime,I got another chance,this time much bigger.I got selected in a big company.Started my professional life all over again.Today is my first weekend in my new job, in some new city.I had a fear that I might not survive in this new city because nothing can be better than Delhi.But the fact is that I am already in love with this city,people are much more polite here.I haven't seen hospitality better than this in any other.Moving around in some or the other hotels every day has been an amazing experience.I haven't been much inside my new office but I am already in love with its buildings!I just wish that there is more happiness and much more better experiences to come in future!
