Had been to Jayadev's place today to see him and Deepa off , they will soon be moving to Sunnyvale and officially join the gang there. Gang coz apart from few of us here , I can't seem to find anyone in my friends circle who hasn't relocated or atleast applied for the same , and it is a matter for some months before latter category folks set off as well . As Kalro says quite a few times ,"lets all move there and retain the group" , wish it was that easy. Things change , friends move on , and what is a little depressing for me is the thought of being the only one remaining here and that too just coz I cannot take a decision well. Yahoo! isnt going to be the same place without some of these folks , we will all miss Jayadev especially at the All-Hands gatherings and year-end parties , his so successful attempts at irritating us with his hindi , the non stop chatter and masti and all the fun.
I really think I need a high in life right now , the last blog post and this one too , in not so great spirits. Oh yeah, work wise it has been on a roll as another friend remarked :) , but yes its been good , just that I have learnt quite well not to entangle work related stuff in my personal space . So all the on-the-roll stuff fades out by the time it is home.
And also Shweta is leaving tomorrow for Singapore , weather is dull with rains on and off and with the recent happenings at Bangalore it is mostly sit-at-home. Hmmm , learning to live with all of this :)

The attempt to move on..

How easy it is to put some things behind in life and move on , easy for people to say time heals , to say you must move on . Move on ? At times when life take a reverse gear and leaves you behind , when certain events completely change your perception of people and things, when little things invite lovely memories , those that you want to get rid of now... what does she do in such a state.
She said , I am in a mess.And so she was , and what was making it more painful was that she tried so desperately to bury those memories. But somehow, she mustered up enough to vividly recollect and not escape from them. Remembered every moment that had brought a smile then , every event that had made the days special. Strangely she felt calm , lighter and 'moving on' seemed very much a less dreaded task, especially when the subject at the other end was so much at ease in doing the same, in moving on. Her friends had often remarked that she was a little too emotional and willing to see more of goodness around and thus would end up getting hurt easily. She did question herself over and again , whatever happened was not because she wanted it to happen that way , she just went with the flow. Life is weird,unfair .. it let someone else take decisions so vital for her .And she still ponders , I did not want to be in this mess, I was better off even before the favorable tide came in and I simply got dragged in its flow..
