Yawning away, while reading a document, i realised that i have ignored this space for quite sometime now.
I am now located at a place which was in one of my "places visited" list,till about a few months back.This place held me in awe. The buildings,the crowd, the people, the ladies with with their tick-tocking stilettoes,the gentlemen in their thick rimmed glasses and dark suits and the colors everywhere.This seemed to be the dream workplace for those looking for a different experience altogether as far as "work - environment" is concerned.
In my last two tenures in this country I enjoyed the sleepy relaxed country-side,travelling to office in a snail-paced bus, reading some book with a plot in 1900 AD and listening to good ol' Bob Dylan numbers as the bus moved through different landscapes of greens and browns. Now I travel to office in a rushing train with buildings outside moving past even before i can catch the color of the paint used.The beats of the songs from the 60's completely out of sync with the clattering wheels of the train.The book replaced by the latest daily handed over at stations.The skyline showing big brands jutting into the sky from amongst buildings of various sizes and shapes.Walking through a sea of humans,everyone moves at a pace, where if i stop for 2 seconds to receive a call, I end up blocking the way of a big group.This is a new experience altogether and am trying to match steps :).

as they say leading the crowd is 'in'.
no one questioned the 'leader' leading to halt. am of course visualizing a queue of londoners coming to a standstill behind u in chain, that too just for that 'call' ? ahem
Hey!
Nice. Life is changing so fast isn't it? Hope everything works out for better.
Yes-life in London or for that matter in all the big cities across the globe is like that.The pace is too fast.Keep pace with others but be your ownself.Amidst the crowd maintain your identity.Keep writing.Col G S Batabyal
