A well deserved break

After, say three weeks of continuous torture, I'm back and feeling great. You really can't imagine what kind of mental instability exams can cause until you've been recently through with some. Actually, writing an exam isn't all that tough but what is an arduous task is to get through the night before it. God your mind is full of all sorts of crap, you think of the ceiling, the tap, the fan(which needs cleaning), the dirty clothes, the trees, the sky, the road, the movie, the song, the toothbrush, the sunscreen, the supermarket...... in whatsoever order. But concentrating on your book is an ordeal. All bizarre, irrelevant and meaningless things are scanned through. But remembering the corneal thickness seems so very heavy on your already overloaded and saturated mind.

Phew... It really is tough huh….. And for once you feel like leaving everything behind and running away to someplace, which is no where. Every night it’s the same story.... alarm rings and it’s put off with an inadvertent movement of your hand....then you get up in the middle of the night, 2-3hrs after the planned time.... curse yourself, your alarm, your book and the day of course. But there is no way out.... so with a heavy heart you start rote again. There are piles of notes to be gone through, it’s a fight or should I put it in a much more refined way and say....it’s a battle against time! And each and every time, no matter how hard I try, I always tend to lose. No regrets, and as I always keep saying...For its life, the very life of life.

Success is not a destination. It is journey, struggle, efforts, sweating... and bits of success, however small the progress is,enjoyed everyday.Whenever there is hard work, difficult decsions to be taken, one always think of FIGHT or FLIGHT. Success is attracted to the one who F.I.G.H.T.S. You do not have to run for or chase it. Let this hard work, or struggle or what ever you may call it..should be unique experience, that is enjoyable and rewarding.
