Journal #18

Day 18. March 31st.

“I didn’t get there by wishing for it or hoping for it, but by working for it.” – Estee Lauder

Today are multiple events! It is the last day of the month, It is a Sunday, It is the last day of the Financial Year 2018-19, and it is also the last day of practice of the farewell dance for college seniors (no seriously).

And yet, the fact that it was a Sunday covered up any of the other events. After waking up, meditated, then yoga and also freelectics. Finally some freelectics is back! Read a few news articles and then continued to read the book Discipline equals freedom (almost done with the book!)

There were a couple of relatives who came to have lunch, it feels just different when you are surrounded with people and talk about random things.

Then there is the IPL2019 (Indian Premier League) that was coming, so watched the match. Quite frankly in many games these days you can’t predict who will win the match. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) played amazingly well today!

In the evening, went for a drive. It is always so relaxing to have some alone time and think nothing. This is one of the best feelings of the day.

On the bright side, I feel this Sunday proved more productive than any of the Sundays this year. This is a record!!

Reject…

Reject is a word, that we always dislike,

Because we never feel like hearing it;

Whether it is at home, or at work,

Rejection is the way you feel like shit.

You see that girl, every single day,

But hesitate to ask her out;

What if she rejects you straightaway,

You always face that doubt.

You hesitate to ask for a promotion,

Or even a raise in your salary;

Even though you work hard for it,

Fear of rejection makes the heart pound.

There are so many cases of rejection,

Especially at work and at home;

People forget that things happen for a reason,

And rejection is what makes them drive.
