Inhaling aspirations, again!
An Intro, is it?
Hello People!
This is going to be my first blogpost after ages! I feel happy to finally able to do this but also super paranoid in terms of how much can I keep up. We’ll see, I guess.
Most of you who get a link, already know me. But here is a quick post about me, my work and the reason why I really want to do this again.
I am 29, currently live in Mumbai with my husband. I am working in the development sector since the last 6 years because that’s exactly what I wanted to do! I studied Journalism because of my love for writing but ended up deciding against it (I am glad I did, because after effects of current journalism is more like “Mujhe drug do, mujhe drug do! ” :P)
I have two masters in the social development sector and I plan to do my PhD, don’t know when. But work life has been pretty good, so far!
Since school, I pretty much excelled at most of the things; public speaking, dancing, writing, acting and what not. I actually did most of these things till college. Wrote more than 200 articles, got papers published with the Government, directed and acted in more than 50 plays! But gradually as adulting got the better part of me, these strengths (as my Dad puts it) are mere nostalgic moments.
I watch theatre, I want to act.
I read a good book, I want to write.
I hear good music, I want to pick up Kathak from where I left.
These are 6 years of “wanting” but terribly failing at keeping up. Every step to go back to the things I really love, looks like a big Himalayan mountain. The sight is so overwhelming that you never dare to trek and experience that “top view”.
Hence, this blog is actually about Inhaling aspirations, again! (hence the name)
To be able to go back and take small steps towards the top view. Frankly, I have no idea what I am going to share or write. But this is a commitment I wish to make and share with you. I am sure, we are/have been/will be here. So, it could eventually become great but right now, its about those small steps towards a journey with everyday challenges like getting my sexy body back (for my older clothes), balancing work and home in this damn damn pandemic and opening something with my Dad and sisters :D
I can only hope we find some answers, together.
Love,
Ankita

जीवन में सफलता और संतुष्टि दोनों समान रूप से जरूरी है ! दोनों ही गतिशील हैं और स्वतः के संज्ञान से सदैव अग्रसर करते हैं और अंतहीन हैं। संतुष्टि कभी भी तृप्त नहीं होना चाहिए नहीं तो सफलता स्थिर हो जड़ हो जाती है। निरंतर दौड़ ही सीमित संतुष्टि का साधन होना चाहिए । उच्चतम सफलता के लिए एक ध्येय होना चाहिए - केवल एक ! जिसमे आप अपनी पूरी क्षमता से सज़ हो सकते हैं ।
पसंद की बहुत सी चीजें बिखरी हैं - कई ऐसी हैं जिनसे दूर से ही आनंद प्राप्त करते रहना उचित है और कुछ को अंगीकार करना श्रेष्ठ है ताकि आनंदित रहें ! आप सौभाग्य शाली हो कि बहुमुखी प्रतिभा के धनी हो और कई विधाओं में सर्वश्रेष्ठ कर सकते हो , परन्तु कई क्षेत्रों में अधिक बिखरना नहीं है - कम क्षेत्र में ही सुगंधी बिखेरना है ! चुनाव रुचि का हो , विषय पसंद का हो और जो भी करो - पूरे मन से !! You have to feel that you are The Great!
