On The Waters


All the things are difficult before they are easy. I'm not trying to endorse what someone has said earlier. I thought it is more appropriate to start with that sentence this time. It was few days ago I read about surfing lessons for the staff on the notice board and signed up very excitingly. But, I was wondering that I might end up in embarrassment reason being didn't know anything about surfing. It makes me laugh when I remember that I didn't even know that it is to go with the tides or against to the tides. Mandy was the surfing instructor, I didn't ask her anything expecting that when I will go to the waves I will see. I took some chances at the beginning to understand. Then fun began riding on surfing board. Wow, what an interesting sport it is!!!

It was same excitement which I had when I started riding bicycle on my own for the first time. Learning new things has always been very exciting.

Good Bye Seychelles

(5th September, 2012) The affair with Seychelles (Known as paradise) came to an end. Reached my apartment after finishing work at 8PM and wrote a resignation letter 2nd time (I'll write more in future posts) and went to bed. (6th September, 2012) Today, the first thing I've done at my work was submission of my resignation saying today was my last day at work. I always wanted to have such freedom at any cost. The cost I've paid this time was hurting my team mates who are so close to my heart. Sorry my dear buddies, I had to take a serious decision and I took it. I'm sure you all will appreciate what I'm going to do hereafter. Everyone of you made me feel so special. In fact, you all are special. I really would like to hear from you achieving more. When I joined this resort around 2 years ago, felt saying hello with a smile to every person who comes across appeared to be a distraction. I wanted to be with me more while walking or eating. However, starte...

Helping Hand Through Flipkart

Y es, it was time to cut and store the Sorghum Crop (జొన్న తోట)  for the coming Summer. But, there were no human resources to come and work in the fields at the moment. At the same time, Chandra Babu (My Cousin) came to buy a wall clock through online shopping. I booked the one he had chosen among thousands of wall clocks and paid money. The product was delivered, and I refused when Chandra Babu tried to pay back the money he owed. I proposed to him to come and work on my farm for two days instead of paying money. He agreed, and his next two days were completely packed.  It was an experience to see and understand the value of the wall clock and the time it shows... 

ఇల్లు వదిలి... నన్ను వెతుక్కుంటూ...

ఇల్లు వాకిలి వదిలి వెళ్లిన ఎంతో మంది కథల్ని చదివాను, రోమాలు నిక్కపొడుచుకునేవి. అలాంటి ఒక రోజు నా జీవితంలో కూడా వచ్చింది. అది ఈ రోజే August 6, 2026. రోమాలు నిక్కపొడుచుకోలేదు, కళ్లల్లో నీళ్లు తిరిగాయి, తిరుగుతూనే ఉన్నాయి. దారి పొడవునా కన్నీళ్లే,  "మళ్లీ మా అమ్మను చూస్తానో లేదో, నా తమ్ముడు, అక్క, వారి పిల్లలు, వాళ్ళ విజయాల్ని చూస్తానో లేదో, చరమాంకంలో ఉన్న నా పప్పీని (My pet dog) చూస్తానో లేదో, నాకెంతో ఇష్టమైన నా మోటార్‌సైకిల్ రైడింగ్ చేయలేనేమో, నా స్నేహితులు..." ఇవన్నీ మనసును సుడిగుండంలా చుట్టేస్తున్నాయి. ఆత్మహత్య అయితే చేసుకోవట్లేదు. శ్రీలంక లో బౌద్ధ సన్యాసిని కాబోతున్నాను. కొన్ని దశాబ్దాల క్రితం తమ్ముడు ఇంటర్మీడియట్ తిరుపతిలో చదువుతున్నప్పుడు తనని చూడడానికి వెళ్లొస్తున్నప్పుడు కలిగిన బాధ లాంటి బాధ, గుండెల్ని పిండేసే బాధ. కొన్ని ప్రయాణాలు చాలా బాధిస్తాయి, కానీ తప్పదు. ఎన్నో సార్లు ఇంటి నుండి బయలుదేరాను, కొన్నిసార్లు ఒకటిన్నర సంవత్సరం పాటు ఇంటి మొహం చూడకుండా ఉన్న సందర్భాలు చాలానే ఉన్నాయి, అయినా ఈ ప్రయాణం నన్ను, నా లోకాన్ని, నన్ను ప్రేమించే వాళ్ళని ఎంతగానో బాధిస్తోం...
