As the title reflects it describes my decade of life and if it
builds interests among the blog readers about how a decade brings about changes
in your life.
I would start with my decade of life these past 10 years of my life had been
a magical journey. It really transformed my life. A thought passed by me when
the millennium started like where would I be 10 years from now. And it was a question
asked by my college teacher then taking our communications lecture. She told us
to pin down an article/ essay about our future 10 years our plans and
prospective.
After our lecturer came back the next day with our reviewed article and interpreted that she was happy to read our
article but no one in that class wrote about
marriage, family kids. They all wrote about their plans to make their career, work,
and earn money and earn a name for themselves. All of us forgot about building
our own family which was a secondary thought
.. For most of us in that class family was not in our mind and priority or it did not cross us about the word
“FAMILY”. Our teacher interpreted most of the above priorities stated would be
void without a family of our own, so building or making a family of our own should be on your priority list, we disregarded the comment of hers.
And now…….At present if we look at ourselves most of my batch mates are happily married and have a family of our own to look after. We work hard for our family day and night. We make it hard to strive in the competitive world and strive to get all the luxuries for our
family our spouses our children we always want the best for them. As time
passes we tend to lose chord towards our first family – our parents. That really feels like a vacuum created by us in rush to pursue our happiness in this MAD world.
if I recall back those 10 years of my life I would say today that those 10 years of my
journey is what I m today. Further a decade of journey that I will pass through
would make my life in future.
I completed my graduation and went on to pursue masters in MBA which was always on my mind. I had so many friends whom I m still in touch with. My life was clear in front
of me that I would a professional working woman. But only thing that don’t cross
my mind was family and marriage. Well in these 1 decade I believe I lived a
lifetime. I had a chance to work with so many well-known advertising and media companies in this decade , enjoyed my working stint with them all. Each day was an experience
learning new things, enhancing ourselves with the bounds of knowledge working
with experienced professionals. Worked with professionals having an experience
of what my age was then. I was fortunate enough to share my space, to breathe the same air they breathed to work on their expertise. Oh I had only one thing in my mind to make a career in
this field , where my passion lies. I had a clear objective in my mind.
Well……………..I have so many friends at college, at work, but
it never crossed me to make anyone as my life partner. I had many crushes which was part of a natural attraction we feel for a person we spend most of our time with. I met a guy after so many years we had met in the past when we were young kids in our uncle’s marriage and then we thought the chapter was over. Then one fine day he came from somewhere in the one of the popular messenger chat ,for heavens we didn't know that we had added each
other. WE stared chatting .We chatted and chatted until we know that we were madly in love. We got married after our battleous stint with our parents. Now our careers had taken a
pause the only thing which was in our mind was to get married.
We got married and now blessed with a beautiful 2 year old adorable daughter, aaah well our daughter keeps reminding us that every day that she is 2 years old. and she is growing
up. Now our priorities have changed . Now we live for her, we live to make her
life.
Now my career has changed from what I had planned. My career of my dreams seems to be misplaced somewhere from my journey of life and I m not feeling preposterous about it. But with a hope of getting it back somewhere downs my life.
I believe our destiny is in the hands of GOD and we have no rights to change our destiny,
we all are born as children of GOD of course to our parents. GOD has always guided me, with his pretensions. Showed my path… unknowingly guiding me towards my destiny .
GOD has this divine sense of naïve humour, he very wells knows our destiny. But we always thought that we make our own destiny. Sometimes the thought process goes into believing on how can a man make his destiny which GOD has already made for him. Can he replace his destiny, can he surpasses what GOD has already made for him. We humans can never digest the fact that GOD has made our destiny. Man can only reach his destiny through the path he chose.
i believe we should plan our future and not predict our future....Leave the future predictions to GOD.he is there for us, we need him or not.
Its high time you update your "decade of life". 2 yr daughter kazhinju ippol adutha aakum aayi.. Go ahead with it.. :)
