I had this thought in my mind from a long time. Especially after joining my company. I don’t know how far I’m correct in saying this. I always feel that there are two types of opportunities in this world. One which will come in your way when you are least expecting it. The other one is which you achieve with your hardwork. Your sweat and dedication will earn you the opportunity which will take you to your dream destiny.
Example for first type would be, getting some recognition or perk or some thing which you never would have imagined in your dream that it will come to you. And Example for 2nd one would be some achievement in your life, dream, target, which you set for yourself and then work hard to reach there.

Well, now time for debate. I’m 100% sure that not a single soul on this earth will have any objection to the First type of Opp. The debate is only on the 2nd type. The most basic question which I myself get is “Why is there any limitation? If the opportunity hasn’t come in your way, go and achieve it. Why leave it to fate?” let me stop here. otherwise whole article will contain only questions. There should be some good explaination for these questions. If you ask me, my answer would be very simple- “Not every person in this world will get everything as the other. There should be some distinction. What we get and what we don’t is not in our hands in some matters. And instead of cursing ourselves for not getting it, we should be happy with what we have(but never be content, if you are content you wont think of improving yourself) and aim for further”. Let me end this debate here.

Last week my friend Shilpa got rolled off from the project. She would be moving to another location of our company here. She is the only female in our all male friends group which meets only during lunch. Poor girl, she always was our subject of fun. Be it making fool of her(I’ve a separate blog on one such experience), her taste in movies, (Abhishek Bachan, Chetan from A Dinagalu etc yuck ppl), her engagement, fiancée, marriage…. The list will never end. We decided to go out for dinner on Wednesday last week. Myself and Vivek went from office directly there and she joined us there- “Halli Mane” at Malleswaram. It was nice evening. We really enjoyed a lot that evening. Today was her last day in this facility and she got really emotional before leaving(but she made it a point not to show that, least we would make fun of her). All of us were really sad. My group has now reduced to only 2 (from 5 at one point of time). But only good part as of now is that we all will meet again during her marriage on April 17th this year. I’m really looking forward for that day. There are many firsts on that day. This is first friend’s wedding that I would be attending, first time going out of city to attend friend’s function, etc…… I wish and I pray to god to keep us all united in future also.
