I have believed that do what you want to, yearn for what you need, but at the end of it life has it's own plans that will materialise for better or for worse; whether you like it or not it's bound to happen. Friends, it has happened to me, yet again. Just as I was waiting to begin something new, life's mysterious plans have worked its wonders , albeit this time for good.
After ten months of tackling hard news and battling my blood-sucking bosses, i have been reunited with DNA Academy, the education supplement with which i began my full-time working career.
The reunion was as sudden as my separation from the supplement ten months ago. It all happened so fast that i just couldn't get enough time to even think and also put my feelings into words on this blog.
Two weeks ago a dear friend and colleague from Academy got a wonderful opportunity and hence she decided to say goodbye to all of us (she's gone to Germany with her husband), hence they brought me back to help our other senior colleague.
Although, I was aware of her going to Germany sooner or later, frankly, i had never thought that they would allow me to get back to where i believe I have always belonged professionally.
However, I'm glad to have said goodbye to the webdesk (that's where i was all of the ten months), as i don't see my self sitting at a desk and correcting copies of reporters from around the world. In fact I have always wanted to be the person who goes around the world and puts her experience in to words.
So here it is, i began working with Academy from Monday onwards. It's like starting a new life in the same old place, but i guess i have rejoined with the same excitement, the similar enthusiasm which i had joined the organisation over three years ago as a 20 year-old starry eyed aspiring journalist.
To end let me leave you with this thought provoking line, from the movie Ratatouille,which stands true in my case-
"The most predictable thing about life is its unpredictability."
Cheers to all!!!
