The Sonance Behind My Silence

When you are a fresher working in a big multinational, it is very obvious to be under constant pressure, so much that you can’t think of anything except your to-do list for the next day even after you reach home, or seeing the products that you sell, or even your clients, in your dreams. But what gets the most to you is when you are entrusted with a responsibility. My time came in early August 2015. I was about 2 months old in the company, having already established my over-enthusiastic, efficient persona, sometimes even evoking mixed reactions like “he does not have enough work on his plate”, just because I did not waste any time at work and aligned my actions for the day efficiently. One Friday, when the entire office was in the mood for rejoicing, given that it was a second weekend of the month, meaning getting an off on Saturday, I had finished most of my work for the day and was already mentally planning for the things I was going to do over the next two days. Life was rosy,

As life unfolds itself day after day, As new people and experiences pour in, Accompanied by struggle and pain, tension and stress, Difficulties show up, and it becomes harder to settle in. Just when we think it can't get any worse, Guess what, it does, oh I'm not kidding, It's as if bad times would never cease, Like the line of guests at every wedding. Seeing others your age happier gets to you, It's perceived happiness, but still quite painful, And as we feel, did they do anything differently? It's what they're wondering about us, how disdainful ! Do not lose hope, for Greater Is Coming, A dream job, so satiating and fun, A woman unseen, but whose scent travels from afar, And a life that we always wanted, with that special one. So if you don't know what you want to do, Worry not, for you're not alone in this lore, Ultimately all of us have to rally in life, Until we find what we're looking for.
