One Day

It was a long day at work and when i arrived home and wanted to park my bike in the garage a pulsar was parked obstructing entry to the garage. I was furious and wanted to take the bike from my way and push it down. I kept calm and was wondering why the bike was parked haphazardly and I realized that due to rain some hours back he had parked under the shade of my garage. The short burst of anger would have made me feel so bad had I pushed it to the ground.  

When i was pushing myself past 7 km mark i saw a banner "Pain is temporary it will  way go away anyway. Keep running" the line was such an inspiration for my run that i did not stop and kept pushing myself and Yes the physical pain is gone after 2 days.  clocked 1 hour 4 minutes.

It has been 3 days since my mom left to Karaikudi for a wedding. Its me and my dad at home. Today morning he prepared rice and dhal sambar for breakfast it was awesome and some heart to heart talking. for dinner he had prepared chapathi and potato sabji it was lip smacking. Thanks Dad from bottom of my heart for the wonderful person you have been all along to me.

To nite when i reached home. There was a truck load of items being unloaded guess a family had moved from a distant city to a house in my lane. The truck was parked in front of my garage/gate and items spread out. A man came forward before he could speak i said "no problem i can manage" i sneaked my bike in the little gap and put my bike in, there after i had to jump the compound wall to get into my house.

On a regular conversation with my auto driver from guest house to office i casually asked how many kids do you have ? his reply was 3 kids in that 1 is of my brother. Then i asked where is your brother ? Sir my brother passed away within a year of marriage and i married my brothers wife and we have two kids after marriage.

It was quite late when i reached guest house. The staff were having their dinner. My dinner was spread out knowing that i would be there any moment. Seeing the staff having dinner I asked them do you guys don't have chapathi and sabji ? No sir we are only allowed to have Rice and Dhal.

Today evening i was just standing near the office gate. Our security guard approached me and asked sir i want some advice from you. I have done Masters in Psychology but not sure how i have to proceed further so that i can earn a little more money in a different Job.



    

BMTC Volvo Vajra Monthly Bus Pass

Are you among countless commuters who are equally irritated of the mad traffic, ever going construction of under pass, over bridge on the outer ring road or want to be Eco friendly by using public Transport?

The best solution can be to take up BMTC Vajra service (Volvo AC Bus Service)

I have been using VAJRA BMTC Service past one month to commute to my office in Eco Space and i am delighted by using the service.

BMTC gives monthly pass for the calendar month ONLY and DAY PASS.

In UK i used to get Weekly pass, I can buy it any day and use it for 7 Days. It would be really helpful if BMTC could introduce Weekly Pass for those who would not be using the service for whole month as they may be going on vacation, however there is DAY PASS which can be availed.

It had been a pain to have the exact change and to face the wrath of the conductor every time i board the bus hence i switched to take Monthly pass which would save me from tendering the exact change to get the ticket.
