The Tide

Its not often that I write an article... My expressions are usually through poems. But today, I feel like writing something and its not poetry that I have in mind!

A month has passed since my summer internship started. For those of you who are not aware, I have two years of experience in an IT firm, am currently pursuing my MBA from a good B-School in India and am now doing my internship in an IT firm again. Do I want to land up in IT again? No, definitely not. But isn't this the same thing I told myself when I quit my organization to join my B-School??!!

I have begun to realize that life is a game with complexity levels increasing in G.P. with age. Yes, I am sure that had I been a kid, I would have done exactly what I wanted. Nothing in the world would have swayed me away from my dreams. But today, that's not the case. And am I sailing this sea alone? No, the most amusing part is that I see an entire generation(or atleast most of it) in the same boat, let alone the sea. And no, I am not being cynical. What I am saying is something that I am seeing around me... There are very few people who are pursuing their dreams... The rest of us seem to be following the tide...

Yes, there are certain people who have set out to conquer their dreams...And I salute them with all respect.
