Fiction Story "A Journey"
Date - 1st Aug. 2011
On Monday (1st Aug 2011), when I awake at five in morning I was feeling an enormous strength inside me, my soul feels much more stronger than ever, I heard voice of my heart, saying yes you're on a way to do great task, but be aware, the path is very crucial and takes a series of tests before giving a taste of success, but don’t afraid from them, be a warrior, do fight with them and never let down your will power, believe in yourself, your willpower and determination, are your greatest pal in your all bad times.
With this ever greatest morning feeling, I pay my respects to god for being me with always and for showing me the right path always.
After completing daily routine, I stand in front of mirror wearing my favorite Light blue Shirt with blue tie, black trouser and my best black shining coat. I look at myself in mirror and feels a relax, peace and mostly a pleasure after a long time, sometimes life takes an unexpected turn in your life about what you never think off but that happened with you all and lastly it depends on you to admit and accept that changes. I always believe in presence of god but never ask a favor about anything, as I believe in deeds not in formalities, at the same time I always pay my kind regards whenever was in temples, mosque or at any other religious places, today also not going to demand something from god but this time before making a move I just wants to sit down silently in front of small temple of our room, to think deeply about myself and asking god to give the only divine strength to follow the right way. A ten minute sitting offered me a great feeling.
I walked at main gate and stripped tight on my Black Leather Franco Leone shoes, ready to take a first step to walk on my way. Carrying leather laptop bag on my backside, I kicked my Old Hero Honda and with this old pal I move on the way to office.
At Office-:
At Office-:
Straightforwardly I moved towards my Boss cabin, after putting my laptop bag on my desk, he is rolling over pages and busy with his laptop.
"May I come in Sir..??"
"Yes" "please Aryan how are you" Mr. Mehta (My manager looks at me)
"I'm fine sir" I answered
"Have a seat please"
"Thanks sir" I answered.
"Nice shirt and a nice pair, you're looking great today, you're looking happy as well, what’s the matter".
"Thanks sir, I thought to wear it on this very special day"
"Hum, so what is the special we're going to talk about..??"
After taking a deep exhale of breath, "Sir, from last two months I'm thinking a lot about some issues and after thinking extremely on those causes, yesterday night I concern and decided to quit from this Job, so hereby I come to notify you about my resignation from the position of Sr. Software Engineer" I said with an unusual confidence.
"Why are you leaving from here, you're a qualified engineer in all terms, you're an all-rounder performer always and I didn’t think you ever faced any kind of trouble here from your colleagues and top management" Boss placed his expert management comment as expected.
"There is nothing about performance, my colleagues behavior or about trusting on top management, it was really a pleasant experience to work here, people skilled with a lot of talent, high energetic power and no doubt a good boss who guided us very well in our odd days, the organization is doing good and so the top management is doing same with their employees, employee satisfaction level is quite high, that is the very good thing about here, it’s not so easy to leave such environment for the people who joined here once and we people have to come across with those old faces daily." I answered with a smile.
I don't come here for any type of unnecessary trouble with my boss; besides, he is not such kind of person, perhaps this is a type of discussion on which bosses moods changed abnormally, so I answered for every question with a smile.
"So you're leaving us for some new faces and to grab some new opportunities for your professional growth" he asked.
"Answer for first question is “Yes” for some new faces moreover acutely for new risks and challenges, I already doing very well as well I didn’t think I have any obstacles who believe about a lack of opportunities here for me, besides I didn’t have any offer in my hand".
"What…? Are u leaving without any proposal…why?" he exclaimed
"I'm very sorry sir but it’s a matter of long discussion and this is not right time to talk about when I am not capable to explain this to anyone, but promise, one day I will definitely able to explain this."
"Yes you're, sometimes you are behaving like a kid, I am not accepting your resignation, go and think again about your decision"
"Sir, I take decision after a research and when I takes, I never look back, my mean is not to hurt you anytime, I come here only to notify about this, it’s all up to you about acceptance but I am leaving it is sure…!" I answered
My boss looked at me once and again busy with his laptop, I noticed he does not wants any more conversation about this topic so, I moved out from the office with a smiley thanks, he replied and smiled as well.
People frequently tells me that their ultimate goal in life is happiness and for a while, I thought I just wanted to be happy too, I pursued happiness as an end goal and evaluated opportunities by asking myself “Will this make me Happy” What I’ve come to realize is that the pursuit of happiness isn’t good enough. Happiness is fleeting. It’s temporary. It comes and goes through my short-term successes and achievements. It’s an emotion, a byproduct of my thoughts. I can think my way to happy by simply changing the way I think. I can engineer my own happiness by setting tangible goals and reaching them. Happiness is a chemical that I make.
But feeling deeply alive and aligned and intentional is very different. It goes way deeper than happiness and has to do with truth. Truth is lasting. It’s bigger and deeper than any emotion. It urges me to courageously and continually awaken to it and adjust my life accordingly. It requires me to rethink everything and have patience through the darkness and light that is the evolution of life. The more I seek the truth of who I am, why I exist, and the purpose I’m serving, the more intentional I am about how I spend my energy. And the more I seek to understand the truth of those around me, the environments I inhabit, and the places and cultures I immerse myself in, the more I’m able to align myself with the needs of our world. Truth transcends me which is precisely why I practice and pursue it. And it’s why you should too.
I feel a high relief of relax as soon as I stepped out from the boss cabin, a very big burden of talking about this matter is now not with me, but outside near to my desk, one more person over me impatiently waiting for my way in, this time the boss have to ask questions and I simply have to grant answer without any point of view, I am not in circumstance to talk with any person precisely, but I don’t have any option, apart to give answers for Shweta’s questions, which are only for me -:
to be continued..!!
