After getting a passport, I'd got wings. Literally. I decided to fly back to Mumbai. It was time for retrospection. Though my words might not be as powerful as my thought, that was a time that I'd taken for me to reflect on my past. One of my demi-gods, actually God, Rajinikanth has often mentioned that " Never forget the past and the road in which you traveled to your destination." That is so true. Often people work so hard for their goals. But they tend to get carried away due to their faint momentary success and end up losing their way and all their hard work goes for a waste. A typical example of the Indian team's performance in the death overs at the World cup. A single word is " Collapse." Mr. Trevor Chesterfield once said that " The past is the legacy for the future." Striking statement.
I dint want a collapse at such an early stage of my life. Without thinking too much of it, I just wanted to enjoy the moment and the seize the happiness that it provides. The song which ruled my life then was " Puthiya Manidha" from the movie "Endhiran."
I arrived in Mumbai at early hours and dropped my luggage at my house and took the train straight to my office. Even at that time I dint know whether I would be getting an opportunity to work in the world cup. It was pretty hazy and unsure. It was a sort of risk. But I backed my instinct and walked into the office. My prospective boss looks at me with anxiety written all over his face. The first thing he asks, even before greeting me is " Where is your passport?." Without a reply, I took time for me catch my breath back and dug into my "All in All" bag. He waited in anticipation with a few more colleagues' pupil fixed on the bag I was digging into.
