The wait....

Anticipation:

Predicting the future. Interesting and nervous too ..! what in case, If this happens… Getting ready for the best or the worst moment. Sometimes the days that we waiting days are better than the actual event day.. Because after there is no fun or no excitement ! It gets complete.!

Birthday celebration: Alisa, birthday is in September 14th .  She is turning age 12 . Her father promised her that on her birthday she would be gifted a bicycle. Mother promised her that she would baking her favorite flavor chocolate cake and Grandma promised to get her anklets. Today is sep 1st.  Every day morning, she goes and stands in front of the calendar, and started striking the calendar dates Counting days never seems to be tiring. After that, she excitedly goes and tell her parents and grandma, there  are so many days left over.. As the day were reaching by, she was jumping and excited and telling her the friends the same repeatedly..Her feets were always tapping. Finally, the day arrived.. she is been gifted as promised.. A colorful celebration and wishes..


On September 15th,  she is no  more standing infront of calendar. The excitement of 14 days which made her to dance on toes and a reason to wake up everyday had the greater level excitement than the actual event. ..

Or it could be other way around too.. when is the final moment? The day of anticipation keeps you longer … The anticipation kills the moment and adds in stress level to face the unknown fact or makes stronger to face the unknown danger..

 Recovery: Dr. John was diagnosed with cancer. He was admitted in the same hospital where he diagnosed his patients and told them about their sicknesses .. seen their smile on their recovery.. shared the grieve when the patient does not survey in the treatment. Today, he is in the same bed, instead of white coat , authoritative look and he is lying in the bed with blue gown and feeling hopeless.. His wife on his side assuring him that she would never leave him.!

 


Being himself doctor, he was aware of the symptoms of cancer. Even though the doctor assured his recovery , he was not sure of the final moment..

After 2 years of continuous fight,  he is been told that he is out of cancer.. the joy and the fun that could not be said by word! An anticipation over.. the days to live are ahead.. 😊

The anticipation days, whether it is happy or struggle days, it helps to get prepared for the final day in better way!

Thats take on today's blog. .Meet you in next blog.

A Telescopic view of API

  From a Business Analyst- Telescopic View to API The development/technical folks tell you a few words all day and the words register, echo… There is more than one way to deal with that Ignore the echo and start using the words like a pro; beyond that word, you would not have any idea about it.

All gold..

 As part of my job, I get to embrace a lot of gold chains/bracelets/rings /earrings, and being a woman, the temptations are real, to wear and own it. These desires grew stronger day by day, which landed me in a spot through the receptionist, where there is no camera coverage and with a deal that I have to allow her to wear it for a selfie. Well, one is taken care of, the wanting to possess at least a few did not allow me to sleep. I could not afford to buy any one of them because our peanut salary gets invisible into the endless loan, education fees, and all the bills. I did not want to become a gold thief, hence for now decided to sleep over the thought.  Days flew fast as the gossip on my Instagram jewel post. Few thought I won the lottery and interestingly, few assumed that my husband is getting black money in his IT job. Whatever the gossips where, but it made me feel like a celebrity in my neighborhood.  All the unknown faces become known. I got to choose the vegetab...

Impartiality.

  Today  Mythili, “get ready soon. We are late!”. “Why in such a hurry? We have good 30 mins to catch the bus. To be specific, I do not want to wait at the bus stand. The bus stand, that has taken my son’s life. I know something happened there and no one wants to share with me anything”. She sits on the sofa, not wanting to cry but still her tears reveal the pain that she is going through for the last 5 years. Guilty and feeling helpless! Sigh! I am hoping from today the days are going to be better. Suddenly the wreath falls from his photo, acknowledging my hope. His smile and that innocence,  at least once, I want to ask him,  "Am I not a good father?" 5 days back: After my son killed himself, Mythili lost herself in a different world. She stopped sleeping and eating. During those days, my situation was the same as hers. I could not do anything much to take care of her. Once I moved to the office, I managed to divert the pain, but she locked herself in a room and wa...
