273 ...Magic number of my life !!!
273 days of life ! Yup my life in Bangalore ! My life of independence ! My life of teachings and lessons ! These 273 days of my life have taught me more than 22 years in my life.
Initially when I was to leave for Bangalore I was the saddest person on this earth. First time in my life , I was to live without my family. But as I landed on Bangalore airport I promised myself to enjoy life like I never did, Live today like there is no tomorrow, learn and groom myself to be more independent ,smart and confident person.
And today looking back at my old self I realize I have become more confident , extrovert, learned to take my own decisions. Now I know what I want and what I don't. I know my choice priorities and preferences. The change is really pleasing.
Bangalore has taught me to value my culture, my language, my food . It has taught me the importance of friends and family in my life. It made me realize how important it is that someone loves us ,cares for us. It taught me to smile at strangers, love the less know people, trust people, make new friends.Bangalore thought me to share , to care , to give, to enjoy differences .
The best gift Bangalore gave me are my friends. I met 8 new people, who first were just acquaintances , later became friends , then family and everything of my stay in Bangalore. They are now inseparable part of my life. I have earned friends for my life time. Friends who never left me alone when sad, who scolded me like my parents at times,who danced in my joy, who guarded me when in trouble, would loved me for whatever I am. My sweeties my roommates who were all my support , my moms at times, my siblings at times and even kids at times; taught me to live life.
It is really strange and surprisingly good that how 4 different people coming from different families altogether with different nature gel together so well like lost long lost buddies. They took all the pains to see me smiling always..I love you G,V and T :)
Bangalore also taught me professionalism. Not when I was in my project but when I left my first project . Many lessons learnt but they were worth learning. :)
Nothing in life can be completely white or black. There has to be shades of grey :)
Like good people in life I also met few 'not that good people'.( ha ha I avoid saying bad. )
People in this category are the ones who cannot see your success , who always try and discourage you for some or the other reason, who try and compare each and everything of life. But as they say tough situations makes you strong. And your strength is best tested in difficult times with difficult people. Even I was tested at times. Few times I broke down few times I rose.
One thing I learnt is whatever may be the intensity of problems God always has a solution to it. Just the thing is we are not receptive to him . And when u have angels around you there is always a solution to it :)
I loved my life in Bangalore . I love my friends in Bangalore. I loved the experience of Bangalore. The fun , the joy, the madness, the youth, the energy, the cries.. everything!!!
Thank you god for those 273 days of my life . :)
