Comeback

Each one has their own defination tor "Comeback".....

Today, for me it's been an year i left my previous job and was leaving Pune to comeback to Gujarat (to settle at this place(i.e. Baroda)... during childhood we used to call this city as Nani vali City... 

How does it feel like When you have a lot with you, all of sudden you start losing one by one, ....   and everything turns out to be dark... it becomes difficult to see the light at the end of tunnel.. State of devastating.

Today, during my conversation with my friend (Mantej Singh), we spoke on this topic Comeback... 

And, when i told him that I feel like I lost everything. And, a fear has developed inside that its now not possible for me to comeback.

He made me understand by saying that "You are on right track. Because when you feel come back is not possible that is the time you have nothing to loose.. And only thing you are left is with gain....So just think what you want to do and feel only things you want to do and dream only things you wanna do and just move on the direction...May be you would be wrong but atleast you would be on a path where you wanted to be...

Thanks buddy for being there at the most needed time...

We have faced setbacks in our life, but very few of those have that hunger to turn it around comeback.

Losing it all, then gaining it all, its a skill and very few pass this phase.. All you need is hard work and the most important "positive action."

The time of losing has gone..... now the next phase is yet to cross "to gain it all..."


Missing Dad :-*)


Lots of Love

Growth

Greetings! 

This morning, While I was travelling to office. Almost, 45 minutes of travel, there were lot many thoughts came to my mind on Growth.. 



I discussed with my friend and asked him "What comes the first thing to your mind on "Growth""
He replied: "Today where I am and previously Where I was!'

We all face and go through changes as the time flies away...

If I take example of mine; 

I always look back and feel nostalgic about it...

Schooling and (hometown) in Dahod,
Graduation days in Anand,
Post Graduation days in Pune,
Internship in Delhi,
First Job in Pune and 
Currently in Vadodara (2nd Job)...

So, basically we all keep growing in our lives...According to me, 

"Growth is  something that makes us unprepared and it is uncertain..."

Like in my case, After schooling, I moved to new city for pursuing my Graduation Course....

After Graduation Course, I moved to another new city for pursuing my Post-Graduation Course...

During the Post-Graduation Course, I choose another new city to pursue my Internship Course...

Likewise.... so on... the cycle goes on..

And, all the above change/transition/ which ultimately ends up by "Growth" have always been the toughest and most challenging, with lot's of Up's and down's, at some point it stretched us and push to go beyond, sometime as there was no other option to choose so basically all that we can do was to step in with what option we have..


#Uncertain #Growth #Transition #challenging #Unprepared....

"Stay health and Take Care. . ."

Cheers!

Year 2020 "For Survival"

Hello Readers,

I am back after a very long time. Hope you all are safe and healthy!

Not only a small village,
a city,
a state,
a country,
But, Yes The Entire Globe... is struggling with this tough time of Covid-19.

We all realized that it was all fun and games in the beginning(i.e. End of March/Initial of April), many of us started cooking, trying out all new recipes especially baking Cakes and Ice-Creams/Shakes as it was hot summer days.

We all always seek for some or the other change in our daily lives. Unfortunately, we never expected this type of lifestyle change, the way we socialize, the way we interact with people at work and in our personal life, our cultural norms...

Scene before Covid-19/Lock-down;

1. Let's go to "Lonavala" impromptu plan: Yes, Why Not. Let's pack a backpack and get into the car and go....
2. Let's invite them for dinner: Yes, No problem. . . without any second thought we call/text the respective guest...
3. Visit to Hospital for normal routine checkup.: Yes, booked the appointment and visit accordingly.
4.
5.
Like so on. . .

And, if we talk about the present days;

A complete opposite situation. . .
1. Let's go to "Lonavala" impromptu plan: We can't. . .until and unless travel is related to utmost important need.
2. Let's invite them for dinner: We can't. . . (i.e. exceptional cases and with little extra care.)
3. Visit to Hospital for normal routine checkup.: No. Dr. are not ready to even measure BP. Until and Unless there is an emergency case.
4.
5.
Like so on. . .

Are this changes going to be permanent? This is ringing the minds of people across the globe.. In many ways, Yes... It would take longer time to go back to old days.

But, then slowly slowly we all understand the fact that "Oops, this is not going to end soon, it has a long way to go. . ." This Virus has already took a massive shit all over our lives and it still has more shit's to bring.

And likewise, each day is a little heavy. . .and prayers across the globe for it's END soon.

We never ever expected that there would be such days where there would be a strict restrictions in visiting each others places, gatherings/outings, . . etc.   with a better intention. Covid-19 has brought a Limit for almost everything and also built boundaries, has resulted in a large number of human live being lost.

We all are clueless of what's hold next for all of us. . .

We all wish to see it's end very soon and eagerly waiting for it's vaccine. . .


Take Care everyone... :)
Stay Safe and healthy... :)
Much of Love!
Heena.

A Walk at ONGC Campus !

It's been 10 months to be here in this city (i.e. Baroda).... Still, I am not able to settle and adjust here...

I was just wondering and infact also realized that how liking keeps on changing...

For Example : Like when i was in school, i used to stay in dahod (i.e. hometown) , at that time Baroda was like the best city and I used to love to spend my holidays here.... Slowly,,, as the years passed away, i moved to pune for my post graduation course and sometime in Delhi for my internship.

And, now I am back to this city for my job and in the process to make this city as my new "hometown."

After a long time, found a place for walking which can not be like "Amanora", Pune but
atleast the same silence, same peace and ....

"Main Entrance"



 

"Which way to go?"

COVID-19 has forced us to do work from home...

Looking Back,  How many of us demanded WFH? The count would be countless..


While sitting at Office Desk,, we all would have asked God "Please God, give me WFH type of Job.." Becuase that's so nice,,, we can do our office work and also relax,, doing office work in pyjama's../in shorts.

Well, I guess everyone of us have experienced Work from Home during this Lockdown phase due to COVID-19...

Life has a its unique styles to teach you a lesson in the most unexpected ways. Majority of us would have demanded(i.e. Non IT Field Employees) to have Work from Home policy, and look we got it and we are experiencing it.

I used to think working from home was just an awesome style, but i was wrong, it is toughest thing to do..

One side Office work and on the other side there is endlist list for household activities,, starting from early morning routine assigned by HOD member of the house,

It could be,

Cooking the Breakfast,
Taking care of the Water machines and ensuring all the water tanks are filled up,
To go to market to get some veggies, fruits or grocery stuff,
Dusting,
Cleaning the bedroom,
Help to wind up the kitchen,
Baking,
Watering the Plants,
Washing Utensils,
.
.
.
.
.
List may be endless...

Which leads to irritation and frustration...

The pets in the house are confused what's happening here no one is stepping out and neither i am taken out for a scroll. For a change i am not barking but someone else is!

But, All this is important as long as we all are in home and are staying safe... Especially taking care of children and elders..

Lot's of Love,
Heena.

Lockdown due to COVID-19 Situation.

It's my society view, early morning.
So, This is the morning view of around 8 A.M. I was on the way to get milk from the nearest dairy.

This is a very sad thing that is happening globally. It's been more than a month now of this lockdown. Health issues such as depression, anxiety, stress are constantly increasing. It is said that Life is full of Up's and Down. Sometime we do fall in life. At this current situation, YES..... We all have fallen....

We all shall surely stand up... slowly,,, slowly,,, We shall Overcome...

Because, what matters is to stood up, after we fall.

This is a natural disaster, there is no one to blame for...

For Example, In business/ Corporate office, you can't blame to production head for the delay or you can't blame to marketing/sales person for not bringing in the business, you can't blame the courier service for the documents that are stuck in the mid way and yet to reach to the destination,,, due to which the payments are kept on HOLD!

In HOUSE, you can't scream or get angry on maids for not being presence...

And, Likewise....

All family members are at home together for which we use to wait for so long time. We were all in a rut and now we are out of rat race, so its all about the basics for everyone - food, health and family.

I have begun and am sure not only me but many people would have started appreciating all the smallest blessings... Because, we have no idea of What's Next ?

I am feeling drowsy,,,, Good Night... Take Care and Take precautions....

This topic shall continue in my next post...

Lot's of Love...
Heena..
