Nostalgia

Hi,
M one again at the crucial juncture of my career and life and don’t know which direction should I take. This takes me back to my days after my 12th standard results when again I didn’t have any options and again was a crucial time of career. I had scoured a measly 65% in my PCM & so had no hopes of making for engineering. At that time I was totally hopeless, directionless, reason, had done badly in my exams and now I am a Chartered Accountant having cleared one of the toughest exams in India in the first attempt and still m directionless and but not hopeless though. But maybe that’s how life is “directionless”, but it has never been that way for me. As I was saying after having done badly in my 12th standard exams, my only hope at that time, my Uncle who suggested me to take up commerce and pursue Chartered Accountancy ( like he had taken up after doing BSc. Botany). I took it up (as if I had an option at that time). And again I had direction in life had to prove myself to all the extras (neighbors, building story aunties, all other aunties and Uncles in my life) in my life and make my family proud. And now when again I look back at it, again standing at an important crossroads of my career, a tsunami of nostalgia grips me. Its been one rollercoaster ride for me.. and I want to share it for whoever who wishes to read it and for me….
