This is my first post in the new year which has become old now by a month. I can't believe how quickly January went past in a blur. Not really a blur, since I am able to recall each day from it. I started a new job, new work place in a new town, new people and so many new adventures to begin with. I can hardly contain my enthusiasm as I rewind back to exactly thirty days ago. Life is amazing. it always introduces us to something resourceful if not what's necessary.
While I am working at a new place, with new colleagues and plenty of new things to teach and learn every day, I am extremely happy to choose this opportunity. My learning graph seems to have expanded and so has my sharing graph. I am happier each day facing a multitude of events, mostly small but impacting in their own nature. I have taken to exploring the environs around my new workplace and to my delight I stumbled upon a beautiful sight one morning. A riverfront with old tall trees lining narrow paths of a multitude of flora. The sunshine dispersed the cold winter fog like magic. I was so grateful for some warmth amidst that teeth chattering freezing walk. I sat there for what seemed like an hour of eternal bliss and exceptional quiet with the occasional chirping of birds, many new to my urban ears. The nicest part of being here is surrounding myself with peace that cuts through all the city noise. The dense foliage dotting the landscape here with copper pod trees strewing the grounds with their yellow delight has worked wonders on my psyche. It is such joy to reclaim ourselves in the realm of nature.
I find time for studying too in the middle of all my new activities. Reading keeps our lazy grey cells alive and active. Meanwhile, my enthusiasm seems to have rubbed off on a few colleagues since we now talk of art, books, philosophy and laugh much more than I would like to think we did earlier. It is always gratifying to work with people who understand our rhythm and reciprocate with kindred joy. While this is a new phase of life, hopefully the coming days will bring more challenges and help me take a higher flight that I always aspire for. Let's hope we all keep up to our resolutions, plans, goals and realize them with sincere efforts. HAPPY NEW YEAR 2018 TO ALL!
