Jobless in Delhi!!!

Have you ever been jobless in Delhi?? No! Well its good but then you will not understand what I am saying in this blog. This is a summary of my experiences of being jobless in Delhi. It is certainly not the situation I revered. I mean it is not a nice feeling when you have been working for so many years and then suddenly you find yourself in a strange city with no job and just being a housewife.

Its not a situation anyone would relish, especially if someone has worked earlier.  Anyways after much attempts I got a job. I told to myself finally I am also working and not sitting idle. However to my chagrin the job lasted only for a month reason. Well for one the boss didnt define clearly what I am supposed to do so that was a chaos, secondly new to Delhi I told him that I would leave early which also didnt go well with him.

Anyways after some more searching and travelling through the city again landed me a job this time in South Delhi. I would like to inform here that my earlier job was in West Delhi. So finally I got a job in a computer hardware mag as an Asstt Editor. But my search continued for a better prospect and my hard work paid when I got a call from The Hindustan Times. They wanted journalists. I was overjoyed to work with one of the top national dailies. However,  like everything good thing must be accompanied with bad things I got to know that the job was not at all journalistic. Infact it was clerical.

Well m not going to bore my readers with my job searching history, what I m trying to say here is that being Jobless in Delhi is not a pleasant situation.

Life or something like that….

Often I wonder what exactly life is all about. Is it a beautiful dew drop that just slips away after presenting a momentary beauty or is it far deeper than that? As kids we use to say that Life is an ice cream enjoy before it melts or even that life is a candle enjoy it before it burns down. As one grows up one realises that they were just kiddish timepass and that life is much more complex than either an ice cream or a candle or anything else that we can compare it to.

Although people say that Life is as complex or simple as we make it. However what I say is that Life is just that LIFE with its own share of ups and downs and without these Life would not be worth living.

So happy Living!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tragic Accident….Whose Fault is it Anyway….And Who will Pay For it……

Yesterday I received a forward  about a young girl who was caught in a serious tragic accident and a 17 yr-old drunken driver.  The mail had some pictures and some text. Although I couldnot open all the snaps, but the one I opened shook me entirely.

The girl was trapped in a burning car apparently and thus her body had burnt really bad. The snap showed that she had lost her left eyelid and her jaw was severly distorted. In a message dated 5/18/2005 8:41:54 PM Central Standard Time, Cecill64 writes:

This young lady was recently on Oprah and what a loving, forgiving young woman she is ! An amazing story of what she has suffered and will bear the rest of her life. Please share this with your friends and especially your teenagers who are driving.

  If you read this message carefully it says that the girl is really forgiving. But tell me something in the circumstances what can she do?

 Life has been really cruel to her and the guy although is guilty of his driving. What will the girl do with his guilt. Its a personal request to everyone, please warn your children the dangers of drunken driving. And its not just teenagers who drink and drive I remember reading a real story who lost her 17 year-old son to drunken driving.

Can we really come together and spread a word against DRUNKEN DRIVING!!!!!!!

Girlfriends, TV or Something else……

Sometimes life puts you in a situation where you areleft confused whether to laugh at the irony of the situation or shed tears at your bad luck. A known fact that a relationship only flourishes when you give enough space to the other person. How much enough is really enough? One guesses….

You can only lose something or someone you had, but what if there was nothing to lose right from the beginning then why this hue and cry. As a child I read that if someone wants to go let them go…Arre!!! how can you let go of someone like that. maybe thats what life is all about. Loving and losing to some other, somewhere.
