Upadate on "Thank You" (2) -- Road Rash

Road rash is a reality in Delhi. I drive 100 Km a day. Yes i am an idiot and homesick person who travels 50 Km to office everyday. Driving in NCR--Delhi is a whole different experience. While driving i was thinking about the Thank You experiment. Can i gain my "Thank You" while driving ? While driving through a small crowded stretch i saw a couple ( mid aged) trying to cross the road. While every car was passing through i stopped and let them cross the road, making the whole traffic stop behind me. They crossed the road and passed me a courtesy smile. I will take it as my "Thank You" for the day.

All Smiles.

Update on Thank You ( 1 )

Well three days have gone by and i didnt face any particular difficulty in attracting any "Thank You". Few of the instances which drew easy thank you includes receiving Posts from courier. Ending a telephonic talk. Even buying stuff from a shop.

Well all these are day to day activities and are now making things very simple for me to complete the task. Even on the last day i forgot about the experiment and when i try to recollect i rembered quite a few instances where people have said "THANK YOU".

It is such a common word that you face it again and again.

Lets try to make this experiment worth trying for and somewhat difficult.
Condition 1:-- Telephonic casual "THANK YOU " wont count.
Condition 2:-- "Thank You" from Shops will not be counted.

Any other Casual Thank You wont be counted.

Lets try how it works out.

Dream and Reality

Have you ever thought; if given an option to go back 3 years in your life and re-live those three years would you take it?

Well I have. My reaction was definitely YES!!

Given an option to go back 3 years in your life and correct the mistakes you would have done; I would say YES please give me.

Given an option to go back 3 years in your life and re-live the moments of early adulthood; I would say definitely YES.

Somehow yesterday this strange feeling has turned me inside out.

It was late night I was in bed. I don't know whether I was thinking or dreaming. Must been dreaming. I was thinking about how I carried myself in the last three years, mistakes that I have done in last three years, how I screwed up my professional life. How can I improve myself going ahead in all the departments (Profession, Personal Relationship etc). Suddenly it felt that I was dreaming about future. I saw myself working in a reputed company in highly intellectual field; have good relationships with all my friends; pursuing my hobbies successfully. It was a rosy picture about future, I was excited about the challenges then, I was excited about the prospect of living that life. Suddenly I woke up to the reality, I am about to get out of college standing there with whole of my life in front of me. I was taken aback. Damn it why? WHY? I want to live in that world I want my dream back is what I was screaming… suddenly I was back into the dream...only now it was more real to life than everything.

I woke up out of a dream in a dream. Only to find out that the dream which I was dreaming was actually a reality. But the fact that I did not want to wake up out of that particular dream made me feel that reality and present is much better than what it was 3 years back.
