The more I think about things, the more I see no rhyme or reason in life. no one knows why some things work out and some things don’t. Why some of us are lucky and some of us get…

One Lazy Saturday in March
It was pouring the whole day, and by evening the rain stopped. The skies cleared and visibility improved. Haze, which was present for the past few days, was gone.

Passion
Came across a familiar looking name in a Tweet. Decided to google for that name. Google has been my friend for a very long time.
Google results confirmed what I thought. She was this popular lady in my junior college days. She was smart, pretty, nice and most importantly, she was a very good dancer. Half the boys then were drooling over her, myself included. It seems like she continued with her passion for dancing till now. She still dances, choreographs dance and found a career in dancing. She is married and with kids, and yet this passion for dancing continues to burn in her.
And then I look at myself, and thought of what passion was burning through me when I was much younger.
There was none.
Perhaps that is the problem with me. Perhaps what I am lacking now is the passion for something in life. Going through life without any clue to what I am doing, nor heading. Not enjoying what I am doing, or this life I am living.
I need to find that spark.

Lessons Learnt
The past few months were a steep learning curve for me. I do not think I came out with flying colours, but lessons learnt are always useful.
Out of the many lessons learnt, there were two that were most memorable:
1) When I reach the age of 50, I better be prepared to be retrenched. I will ensure I am debt free, have alternate streams of income, and be ready to retire. It will happen to anyone, and I better be prepared for it. Thinking about it, in fact I should be aiming for retirement as of now. Time to relook at my finances and investments.
2) Health comes first. It will be too late when health is gone and I try to do something about it. Without health, everything else does not matter. Time to get back to the gym, and allocate time to exercising regularly. Eat healthy, think healthy.
Both of the lessons were learned from people around me, and it will be foolish to ignore it.

Regrets
Tonight is one of those nights that I think back and wonder what did I do with my life? What have I gained? What have I lost?
Could be that I have no time nowadays to really think of anything else but work, perhaps it is really time for a change.
