The mandatory goodbye 2013 post!

Gosh.. Its really been a while since i last posted. My last post seemed to be a rather inspid venting out post and i hope i have less of that.So it beens a year since we've come to mumbai. What was 2013 like? arguably one of the toughest years *b went through workwise...
As for me..Well I've been  on leave and the plan was to explore south mumbai on my own, visit chor bazaar, do all the 'mandatory things one 'must' do when one's a tourist.

Well... no surprises i did nothing! I'be just been sitting back, relaxing thinking about the year that went by. at least that's the excuse i would give anyone who would call me lazy!so 2013
1. finally I had a steady job and a job i like which is saying quite something considering the recent few years
2. I finished a year at the job which may seem like nothing to  most people but is for me
3. Travelled to the mysterious Egypt and breathtaking New Zealand 
4. My family temple which is my parents' pet project is rebuilt and im glad to see they are happy!
5. I restarted yoga which is a huuge deal for me :)
6. witnessed/witnessing my adorable nephew grow up and  seeing another side of my sister for the first time in my life.. now she has someone else to boss over!!
7.  Did a fair bit of cooking.. 


The more and more i write i realise that life is about the smaller things, and as i learn recently that its about exploring happiness under your own roof....
I hope 2014 brings me to a new phase of life..
I just need luck and the world to agree I'm ready...

sad :(

I have been meaning to write about Mumbai for a while.But today I'm feeling so down and low for completely different reason. For now let's just call it a 'complete goof up' . And that does happen very often to me and certainly not in my second month of  a new job but i just feel awful. I just want to fix things but i there is no time. It isn't entirely my fault but all of us who worked on the project thought it would come out Ok.I feel so utterly helpless and dismayed. I have not faced situation like this very often and perhaps thats why I find it difficult to deal with especially when i have no control over fixing it. We just have to deal with what we have,keep the chin up and move on

I cant wait for 2 weeks to pass when all this will be history and hopefully people will forget about it. Maybe I am being dramatic.But its an inexplicable feeling. I was just beginning to like everything and was actually considering myself lest i say,'lucky'.B* told me there's never a good time or bad time, its just time. Maybe i should listen to him more

I guess i tend to get too emotionally involved. I must decide to let things fail and allow them to never happen again. I need to be more balanced,more calm and not hyper ventilate.
