It's been a year since I got off a fantastic roller coaster ride. A ride that lasted 3 years 3 months. A ride that left my teeth cluttering in cold but also introduced me to lovely people who managed to keep me warm for as long as they did. A ride where I learnt that show biz is not restricted to the big screen or TV! Nevertheless a ride which was supposed to shape my career but ended up shaping my life instead!
A year back, I had had enough, or so I thought! Politics was not for me, master manipulator is what I could never become, I couldn't find my foot hold in the show biz, in short the IT culture didn't suit my personality. Its said, When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. So I decided to go and I mean just go, no regard to the future, no thought about the ramifications of the decision I was about to take. I just wanted to run away from where I was stuck. So as you can see I had successfully misinterpreted the saying!
With no action plan, I set off. My only aim in life was to seek happiness and find that one thing which I could finally convert into my passion. These are a few profound words that I would love to abide by! But its easier said than done. When you are on the way to find your destiny, there are several distractions - some necessary some unwanted and some plain luring evil! Money, fame, society come under the last category. Not surprisingly this category has a great power of attraction, probably even greater than gravity!Once you get caught up in this attraction field, your downhill journey begins. Downhill, coz its easy - bloody damn easy. One loose pebble that you step on increases the rate of your journey. Guess that's why most people fall under this category coz its so damn effortless.The only decision to be made when one reaches the foot of the hill is whether to remain there or to climb the way back to the top.
One year later, it would be far from truth if I were to say I've found my passion! I am still surrounded by "budding ministers" and people with shocking intellectual levels (please note the sarcasm!). Whether my decision was right or wrong, I would never know. But what I do know is it helps to not plan every living breath of your life! Decisions involving less of your brains can often get you to places where you have wanted to be, doing things you have always dreamt of doing. So in short shut your brains off!!
P.S: Special thanks to my Sailor,Babe of my life, Hot @$$ and Poosh for lending me their brains while mine was shut down!
