Back & Upset....

-

Yes I got back today morning. It was a good program. Though I was much upset and tense about it but fortunately it went well ( I hope so). Guys were great. I guess I can't recall any other program of mine where people were so nice. All were smiling when they were leaving so I guess, everything went well. In this program I met one another person too, some one who has worked with Oracle technologies and Teradata database quite extensively. A very experienced consultant who has joined Education industry now. He was in my program for 3 days and we had great time. It was fun and learning both in his company. We shared our views about technology, about the current work environment, future plans( he shared more about this one as I don't know what I shall be doing actually). It was great to have a talk with him. I hope I said a word or two right in front of him when there were discussions about Oracle :-(. Its really tough to talk when you got a senior guy sitting in front of you.

Now why I got upset, you may be thinking. Well I don't know why people are so careless about those who really try their best to do everything right and make things go in the right direction? I had a program scheduled in the coming week(from tomorrow) but it got canceled. Well its festival time so I was happy that I would be coming back home and spend time with my family. I have got another 2 weeks program scheduled so I would be away for a long time so I thought it would be good. While my way back,I  got call from my manager. He said that I have to do another program in the canceled week and I have to travel on the day of Dussehra. Now this was really upsetting for me. I don't mind working in the canceled dates but its festival time so I told him that I won't be able to do it. People come back home in this time and it would be really bad to go out from home and travel. Well he didn't like it and started saying all sort of things, including that its my all time problem. I don't really recall when I have done anything like this that I have canceled any program which is scheduled for me. Heck I have done programs which are left by others or worse, flopped by others. But as far as I can recall, no one came forward to help when I needed it. At least I can't recall any moment like this. I was told that from next time, it would be noted when and where I had canceled any program and will be told to me. Its been quite some time that I am here and certainly I didn't expect to hear this. Needless to say , I was very upset. I don't know whether it will happen or not but if I shall become a manager some time, I do have a list of do's and don'ts which I shall follow.

Well I am back home and I guess I would be getting about 2 days than I shall be traveling. Lets see what happens. I am not in a good mood certainly so I guess it would be better if I go out and try some thing which can change it. But the issue, I am not able to decide to do what ;-).

A Poetic MasterPiece By Faraz.....

-
I am a big fan of good poetry. I am not a poet myself  but where ever I do find anything good written, I try to collect and share it. Surely enough, my first preference would always be Punjabi poetry. But there is no such thing that I wont read from any where else. Whatever is good, I try to make sure that I don't miss it! There are some poets which have created history with their writings. Late Ahmed Faraz is among those handful which wrote timeless pieces from his pen. Saying anything about him would like showing torch to the sun. So without wasting any more time, I would like to share a poetic masterpiece from him which I read today only and instantly fell in love with it. This is in Hindi and I shall translate it English in a while. Please note, this does has lots of words from Urdu as well.I shall put the meanings of those words in the end of both Hindi and English versions. First, in Hindi, Dost ban kar bhi nahin saath nibhane wala, Wohi andaaz hai jaalim ka jamane...

Feelings Revealed Truly & Musically....

-
In music, out of the most pure forms of it, one is Qawalli . This is that form of music which is sung by the people who are not mere singers but devotees of God. This form of music was not a part of commercial music industry some time ago but due to its magic, its now very common to hear this in almost every where. Despite its used now in the commercial music industry, still the original form of it with minimum music instruments and claps of the singers while singing is the most popular one and remains untouchable. There are many singers who sing this form of music but some have made it a household name due to their singing. Late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan   is among those very few who singers who are known as the masters of this devine music form. Out of millions of Qawalli songs available, there are some which hit straight in the heart. There is one that I am listening from some time and thought to share with you all. This one was specially recommended to me by my friend Sumit who hi...

Shiv Kumar Batalvi, A Legend....

-
There are so many writers in this world and there is just an ocean of literature. But despite the fact that all the writers are good and the entire literature of the world is nice, I still love Punjabi literature and its writers the most. You may call it whatever you want but this is what I really love and it has reasons. And out of all, the foremost reason is that no culture is as rich in its wealth as Punjabi culture and I have yet to read some thing which is as romantic or as painful or as joyful as Punjabi writer's writing are. There is no disrespect to anyone else or any other language but this is what my choice is! There are a lot of writers but few only have power to become immortals with their work. Only some chosen ones have a power to write fire with their words. Out of those few, Shiv Kumar Batalvi  stands apart. It wont ever happen that anyone would be able to touch even the heights where he is with his writing. Its a pity that Shiv had to leave this world so early b...
