2000 – 2010, 18- 28 a decade well lived!

I was just wondering that 2010 as a year went by pretty easily, hassle free and quite quickly too. This was until; the realization hit me that it wasn’t just a year but an entire decade that ended, a decade in which I started with 18 and ended on 28. And boy, what a decade it was!


This decade was when I overcame the initial hurdles in my education, finished by graduation, was the first MBA in my extended family, got my first job, hated my first manager, managed to hit an all time low patch coinciding with the downturn of the economy and managed to land a 2nd job that I currently love doing.

This is also a decade where new friendships were forged, bonds were strengthened, a decade went by in studies and perfecting skills I didn't know existed in me.


If somebody asked me what was the best moment in this decade, then I would have to probably say the journey of having to grow from being a tom-boy to a woman……. The journey of having to emerge as a butterfly from a caterpillar. And just like a caterpillar, I had to weave a cocoon around me, contemplated on my personality, what is happening around me, what is right and what’s not and how to emerge as a better person. I’ve not been completely successful, because change is a part of life and it’s better if it isn’t constant.

Looking forward to 2011 being a fruitful learning journey personally & professionally.

Happy 2011! :)
