Work Life Balance

I had very hard time over last month as far as my profession is concerned. I tried many options to mark a barrier to separate work life from personal, but I had a very less chance to win that contest. I felt relatively high pressure to finish tasks and very much fed up working in multitasking mode. Slowly serial task allocation is getting eradicate from corporate dictionary. Just got a feel that corporate work culture is driven only by business rather by human values this enforces to a machine like life. I did agree, business is important but one's personal life is equally important. We used to communicate often with the phrase "End-of-Day" but when I turn out to home each day that literally became a end of that day! One day if I turn back my past, I would leave with a huge space which might have filled with happiness and joy.

Why I need to bear all these things? Reason is very obvious, nothing but money. Almighty kept our very existence in the shadow of that printed paper. Hence no other go, to survive I am in need of that. But the bad thing I felt about that is, it became the integral factor to decide major things in the world. It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good too to check up once in a while and make sure that I haven't lost the things that money cannot buy!

May be this blog turned out to be a check point to validate and come up with a necessary action before a huge damage has done. I starts write blog as one of the mitigate measure.

not over…to be continued...

Visit

I went along with my friends to attend my friend Imran's marriage, which was happened on 16th Feb at Rajapalayam.We started from chennai on 15th Feb by train.We enjoyed our journey and reached the destination at the right time.To our surprise, we get a reception from bridegroom at Rly Station itself. To tell about Imran, I had seen very few peoples who are very religious and much devoted to Almighty.
We were placed in a hotel for refreshment. After we got ready, we were taken to marriage hall through car. Reasonably descriptive speech was given by one brother and in comes the Nikkah.After that we were offered Walima, the feast provide by Bridegroom after Nikkah .i.e. feast provided after marriage got over and Once we done with all formalities, we return back to hotel.
All of my companions were preparing to leave to their hometown except me since I had planned to return back to chennai to attend FCL cricket match. I was in dilema, whether to go-ahead with my plan or break free and leave to hometown along with my friends. My hometown is hardly 2 hours travel from there. I felt there were many odds If plan got breaked. Hence I decided to stick with the plan. But I felt very bad, I couldn't digest because my mom was very desperate to meet me after a long time.I found it hard to spend that saturday evening, since nobody to accompany me. Finally, catched the train and reached chennai.

There are some experience I gained from this trip, which I never faced before.

And at Last,
I started counting the days when my mates return back this to me!!!

An attempt to live without doing sin!

This great land formerly filled by great personalities but currently dominated by ones who does all sins&evils. Ofcourse, definition for sins may depends upon persons.Here, sins takes traditional assumption. There were days, when persons takes alchohols where known as sin-doers. But now, one who avoids alchohol are treated as if they are not elgible to live in this earth. Drinking or not drinking is depends upon one's own interest. But, What I made me shocked was, even government instead of stopping this,became more commercial thereby running wineshops within every few meters reach. Really get ashamed of these poorbeggars, when they claim themselves saying that they are generating huge revenue out of this.What's more interesting is the caption written in advertisement hoardings "Drinking is harmful to health,family & nation". Solution to AIDS is still more erratic, instead of preventing the rootcause the advice is to use "pre-cautious" measure. As a result, a survey conducted by one university students to the lovers about "Are you guys support pre-marital sex?". 60% of them replied "Yes"!!!... Where we are going?. Culturally are we heading towards a boom or pain?.

Wherever I go, very few things stops me from reminding sins. I just got a feeling that manything turns it's face towards western culture. Even those people got tired of that culture. Do we really need it?. Slowly we are loosing our originality.

Putting all those things aside. How I am going to react to this environment. I started adjudicating myself. To lead a decent life is purely depends on me. I am not ready to blaim either the soceity or other external factors. For me, heart becomes a devil's workshop. Many times I thought of living a peaceful life without doing any sins, but i am unable to do so.

I felt, there's always a pleasure in living life with boundaries than without any. I chose to lead a former one, I am in a situation to face challenges with my soul. Also I can witness lot of conflicts between mind and the soul. Mind always entice me to lead in a way it feels comfortable. I know, it will be wrong in most circumstances. But still I keep asking advice from mind rather from soul. Do I really needs to exists with this struggle ? is a question often nudging me.

I will be in peaceful state, if I manage to live without doing any evils, which I had went near in the past. But I had lost that kinda peace at this moment. Setting target was very easy but to reach that it involves real hard work.I am hardly working on that to bring back.
If god willing, Soon I will attain and atleast live a day wihtout doing a sin.
It's not a end, it's a beginning....!
