The blogging Continues :)

Hi,

Its been almost one and half year since my first blog. Thanks a lot guys for such an overwhelming response for that. I know its too late to respond but have surely missed out on something which i really like for the past one and a half year. But surely this time around I will make it a point to reach out to people and express my thoughts about life,politics, economics sports and so on.

If you would have read my first blog that was a different me.that was a college guy who was just stepping out in the world. Time past and i have learned many things during that time.
I am not perfect so i did make miskates during that time but as i have said i have learnt a lot frm those mistakes and that has made me a better person today.

If i sit and think over it i think it wouldnt have been better or exciting as it is now if i would have taken a different path altogether. I was lucky enough to have people around me to support and criticize me at every juncture.

Still a long way to go and lot many things to achieve, learn. For me i always consider life as a learning process where in you learn from every mistake and gain experience from every correct thing you do.

As my first blog even this is becoming a bit too philosophical, so this time around i will also share my thoughts about traveling.

I was lucky enough to explore some places all alone. Meeting new people, making new friends, get to know their culture and so on.
Anywhere you go you meet different people but the basic human nature doesnt change.
1) They need love for survival and money to sustain themselves.
2) Some people will still have a smile even when they are in a deep shit.
3) Some people criticize you for the way things you do.
4) Some people respect you for what you are.
and so on the list is endless.
Travelling around has really made me think about myself and gave a clarity in my life with the way i see things. I really cherish the time i spent in AU and that time will always stay with me as a very fond memory as i am really proud of myself of achieving something. This feeling is really important as it gives you a great motivation when you are down and dont know what to do.

Travelling has always excited me since childhood. Small day trips,15 day trip to my native place, 1 month military camp and now the business trips. The child within me is always ready to step a foot outside the protective atmosphere and see the world. When doing this i have learned that people will be on their toes to pull you down. So beware of such people and dont pay attention, as such people dont matter.

Apart from business trip every person should take out sometime and travel to places to find some peace as its very necessary these days as you do get lost. You dont know what you want in life. Its all clouded by the poli-pollution (politics) , job, household stuff and day to day routine.
Believe me even a 5 day trip refreshes you.

So guys just plan a trip and refresh yourself to better tomorrow.

With this i would like to end my 2nd blog.

If any suggestion please let me know, i would be glad to know what you feel so that i can make my blog more interesting for my readers.

Have a great life and enjoy life.

Cheers,
Gautam

Last few Days!

Hello,
This is my first blog so if there are any mistakes (grammatically), please do ignore.
Today on a sunny Sunday afternoon,I am going through a mixed bag of emotions. Just cant understand how things have changed.We all have grown up, and left behind the sweet memories of college days.
The time which we used to get to spend in the cafeteria or at home lying around is gone.
Now we are going through a roller coaster ride to decide what our future is.
The other day when I was talking to my friend, lightening struck me and I realized that we are not 18 anymore. The time has past when people,your relatives,your parents,your friends used to guide you to let you know what is right or wrong. Now, all the decisions are suppose to be taken by you all alone. People will give you advice but whether to accept it or not is upto you. And the decision you are going to take will be observed and criticized by many.
So, now things are changing the child inside has taken a backseat and a 20's something man is on the driver seat. Riding through the windy storm or a through a thick forest,all alone with lots of expectations and responsibilities.
Time is a crucial factor with respect to all of these.Time decides whether you should take "A" path or a "B" path to ride through a forest. Time is never in your hands, you feel you have enough time but when you realize that, its already too late to do anything.
With all these factors keeping in my mind, I am stepping a foot into the outside world where living is the second name for competition.I am going to go through all the things which I have just seen or observed from a distance.

With a small quote i will end my first blog post. And the Quote goes like this
"Life gives you enough opportunities to prove yourself,
Instead of preparing for those opportunities,
Be prepared for the opportunities which you will get."

As this is my first blog I have kept it short and simple. With experience, the blogs will be more interesting and will cover many more topics
Hoping that you will like my first blog

Thanks
Gautam Deshpande
