Up early

------------------------------

Woke up early. Full of energy. lets see if I can make it to work before 7am. What a weekend. :)

Was listening to the Conf call with Kolkota and got to know that people are travelling for about 2 hrs in the morning and 2.5 hrs in evening to get back home.
There was 2nd person resigning because of the distance to travel and affecting personal life.

It seem they moved to a new office building very far and remote and there is no restaurant for 16km radius.

I think I made the right decision of not taking a transfer to India. Would not want to waste about 5 hrs traveling.

Saw Eva great quots on her blog. Nice of her to post it. She was into it even before. But they were more longer and debatable. and some maybe contoversial. And these are just quotes for sharing, nothing to debate about.

Working on seeing if I can get more training on my leadership skills and other soft skills. browsing the company web page after I got the email. The webpage seems so unfriendly and not able to find the place to register for the course. :(

Whole body seems to pain with the results of back to back hiking. And I wished that the hikes were as close as in Vancouver.


And I wish for so many things, but reality is so far and distant.
Dreams that could have made bridges, seem to collapse and wither,
Love that crossed all boundaries and Oceans
Seem so helpless and wanting its own love and care.

Words of misunderstanding causing the pain
Seems to happily rein.
Ego and blindness
Weaving its own web
How helpless it feels
How deeply it feels

If only you took the time,
To understand the deep me within me.
You would have known how deep and true my feelings and me as person.
And if you had known the person in me you would not want any other.
Lost was me as the person to you in the clouds of circumstances and other tempting colors

Temptations that invited you to distant exocticness
Unreal as they are and will always be.
Finding yourself in your own heart I hope will one day reveal the REAL

Will it be too late,
Love forever lost to regret.

10:45 am get msg from Ajit regarding conduting interview to recruit for the off shore person. She is based in Bangalore. Need to make international call and schedule an interview.

12:10 pm get out to head home and finish yesterday evenings chicken curry cooking.
12:50 finish cooking and heat up the Chapati/roti and have it with the yummy chicken curry.

1:20pm head back to work. reach work thinking about the issue with Eva colleauge.

Why is it that India is sill sticking to some of the rules that were required to keep track of foreigners during the Cold war period. Now its become such an open Country, that even the data base in the computer is not enough to keep the data about the foreigners address.

Just that it would mean that there will be suddenly lesser jobs if these rules are removed and no one wants that. A democratic country practicing Cold war Iron curtain policies. Or is it just the distrust of the Europeans.

Again there is so much that needs to change and evolve in the Indian mentality. So many of the restricted thinking and convervatism that gets taken and blown out of proportion.

Wondering if I should send Eva the reply to her email or just let it go. I have done enough to screw up my own sense of self respect, my self confidence is at its low feel like the ugly frog no one wants anything to do with.
Now even if some girl looks at me kindly and smiles, I am feeling as thou I was kissed by a princess and turned back from a frog to my original princely self.
