Happy New Year!

Happy New Year

Better Late Than Never!

The most hyped year of the entire universe met its anticlimax on the 21st December, the Mayan Calender predicted the End of the World but Alas! We are Alive. This is the beauty of life and death, you cannot bind it in chains, you cannot force its beginning or predict its end or control its journey. All you can do dance in the drizzle, face the wind and sing to the tunes of life and when the time comes embrace death with grace.

The past year like any other year had been eventful and the year that has begun is promising to be even more challenging and happening.Started with CAT Results which were depressing, and rightly had to be because my effort wasn't 100 percent, but as the wise have said let bygones be bygones!

Then out of no where I did something that I had been meaning to do for some days or may be some months, I went to a Toastmasters meeting and I never looked back after that, it was a whole new world and the experience was different. I started getting involved in Toastmasters and my communication skills and my presentation skills have grown leaps and bounds. It encourages me to stay upbeat about current affairs and also has boosted my habit of reading. It is my break from the chaotic life and instills peace in me. One very crucial thing that I have learnt at toastmasters, it is not how to stand up and speak but its how to sit down and shut up and listen.

The year like any other year was again full of ups and downs, challenges and treats. And I had expected nothing less from it.. In the end the year 2012 was totally worth it!
