Wishing You All A Very Happy Holi From Home….

Yep, Its Holi today and I wish you all, whether you would play it or not, a very happy and colorful Holi! Have lots of fun, play with lots of color ( but be safe as well) and have a good time with your family and friends! Wish you all a very happy holi! And what’s more better can be that I am at my home on this day! Yes, I got back home yesterday evening after a long but rather comfortable travel. Why comfortable you may ask so the answer is that the travel of flight is never tiring for me. I can do it on daily basis too if  I have to. Its the travel that I do over bus from New Delhi to my hometown, that’s most tiring travel! But fortunately , this time when I got at the bus stand, I saw that there is an air-conditioned bus from Punjab Bus service standing there. I normally don’t take it because its charges are more than double from the normal bus but this time I though to give it a try and I am just glad that I took that decision. It proved to be worth of its price in both comfort a

Thank God I Can Say TGIF….

I have just finished my 2nd program for this week and my last program of this tour. I hope it went well since I could see the delegates leaving with a smile on their face and I can confirm you that if you are doing a presentation/session/taking a class/any sort of public speaking, if you are able to see your audience leaving with smiles, very well chances are there that things have gone well! It was among the longest tours of mine and it would had got extended further more for 2 days but thank god that’s not happening anymore! I just got finished and got back to the hotel room of mine. When ever I finish a session, I feel terribly tired and today also is no exception. I won’t get much of the time to take rest since the next program is also going to start soon, “very soon” ,but still whatever time I shall have, I shall try to take complete rest in it. I have just booked my cab for tomorrow. Normally, I get a flight on the same day when I finish my program but this time, its for the next

Hope I Get Some Rest For Today….

I couldn’t think of anything better that this to put as a title since its the only thing which is on my mind at the moment. I have finished this week’s program (and the last program for this tour) yesterday. It went well( I guess) as well. Delegates were great and had 2 guys who already did attend my previous sessions. It was a fun filled session with lots of learning, not just for delegates but for me as well since I did learn 2 things which were completely new for me! I hope all the delegates did enjoy the session and it was worth of their time spent there. Thanks a ton guys! One delegate did take some pictures which he shared with me as well. I have uploaded them over my Picasa and shall give the link in a while. Though this module is finished but I must say, I am really tired! I can’t recall anytime before when I was so sleepy in my class. But at this time, for about 3 days consecutively , I was just about to crash right there on my instructor machine! Had it not been ( too much

Happy Valentine’s Day….

Its Valentine’s day today and I shall wish you all those who are in love with their loved ones a very happy v-day! Have lots of fun and hope and wish, the love between two of you would grow and become more and more stronger day by day! And if love hasn’t smiled over you yet, don’t lose heart. It may be just a matter of time when it would knock on your door and when it would do, make sure you would hear the knock :-) ! Enjoy your day and let the love be in the air!

What’s More Painful….

Love , what it is? A feeling, an emotion, a touch? May be it is all of these things. But even though it may be all of these, there is something so much more about it! Love is the name of that relation which one makes by his/her own choice, its that unsaid, unspoken commitment which one makes to his/her partner when he says to him “I love you”. Love is that journey which starts from two strangers meeting just like that at some point of their lives and ends with both holding hands of each other! Love is the most sacred relation that one makes in his/her life because rest all the relations are given to a person from his birth, even his name is not of his own choice! But relation of love is the only one which makes on his own! A choice which either gives someone just smiles even in the darkest of the times or tears and cries! Love can enlighten one’s life and it has the power to bring endless darkness over it too! But wait a minute, is it really love which does it all? How is it possible f

Done With One, One More To Go….

I have just got back after finishing up this week’s program. I couldn’t write ( though I wanted so much) in this week how sick I am and even though it was a very easy program, it appeared to me a real tough task to finish it off due to my very bad health. But its over today and I guess it went quite well as well so as it is said, all is well that ends well so I shouldn’t be whining too much! But its my blog and I am free to put here all what I want so here it goes!! If you are a regular here , you would be knowing that I got just two days break last week before I had to come here. Just before I had to leave for this tour, I fell sick. And not just sick but terribly sick! Fever, cough, cold just love me I guess and they took all over of me and are holding their feet very strongly now too! I am not able to speak and feel dead tired when I stand for few minutes too! But I can’t say no for the work since only for this I came here so I had to go for it no matter what! Since I couldn’t sta

Yep, Its For The Same Too….

I am sure if you come here often, you must have started thinking or rather I should say, assuming that every post of mine is going to be either about me leaving or coming back to my place isn’t it? Well, just to keep the tradition alive , this one is also for the same thing :-) . But before I say the usual, just for the record , I have been given a very very tight calendar which means I shall be on the road most of the times for quite some time. So bear with me if you feel that travel is the only thing that I am writing about! I have heard couple of songs which I would be sharing soon with their translation as well and shall talk about some thoughts which I do have in my mind wandering around! But for the moment, I am leaving tomorrow for a long and very tough tour. Since I am not well and that’s still not an old story as I fell sick just yesterday only, its going to be rather much harder! Hope all goes well. Pray for me guys and wish me luck. Its time now to have some rest since the t

Adventure Wrapped In A Single Day’s Travel….

As I mentioned in the immediate last post, this tour of mine was the most shortest one. I just went for one day, that’s it! I thought it would be a simple tour since I was supposed to do an overview of a technology. Though the module itself is very hard but since it was for only one day, I thought probably I shall be able to sail through. I did decide to prepare for it very well  ( I did do that) as well! Normally, I don’t do traveling atleast up till the 4th day of my tour but this time, it was going to be happening the immediate next day. Anyways, I thought things would not go much bad and despite all the issues, I would be okay. But it just can’t happen when it comes to me and smoothness in anything. Things are bound to go shaky, wrong, upsetting and the same happened this time as well! I normally take a bus to Delhi from where I catch the flight to my next destination. Its just a pity that the closest airport that I have for me is there only. There is another one in Chandigarth b

Probably The Shortest But Still….

When ever I have travelled so far, its atleast for 3 days. That’s the shortest amount of time I can recall spending on an official tour so far. But I guess, this time, I am going for the shortest program that I would ever do. I have a program of just one day but for that, I would be requiring to travel for one day as well which would make in total 2 days but still, it would remain the shortest duration in my travelogue. And since, its just one day of it, my luggage( can I still call it one) seemed to be the lightest one in all of these years, I mean how much just one pair of trousers and shirt can weight right :-) ? But the smallest duration doesn’t make the program any lighter. The program remains the toughest among of all that I have handled so far and to add more to my pains, the practice setup and book that I was supposed to get for it, both are still nowhere to be found which means, I have nothing in my hands/computers/anywhere which I can use to prepare for it and its a complet

At Home, (Very Short) Break Time….

I got back home today morning. Well, its just for two days only and out of that one is already over. From the last few months, its been a real hectic schedule that is there for me and I believe, its going to be the same for next few more weeks as well. Besides the hectic travel schedules, the modules that I am handling are all very tough and the audience as well  which is coming is very elite and experienced. So overall, its being a very tough time for me. I just managed to get a sleep for about an hour in the evening though I was so much tired and couldn’t sleep at all last night. But there were some tasks that I had to finish so had to step out of the house and finish them. I am having a very severe pain in my right knee and left elbow and I have no idea why? I know the reason for the elbow pain but about knee, I am a little worried because it has just started few weeks back and its really really painful. I shall wait and watch for few more days and than will see what to do about i
