The *Impatient* me...

Long back I had a feedback of being *impatient* ...I still wonder what was that supposed to mean. Am I too spontaneous? or am I ....

I wonder what made me turn into all this non-real me...
I used to be (generally) a patient and calm person(yes I think so), especially at work. :) . I used to take my time explaining things properly to new people(whenever I could), and I am always happy for people to ask me questions. But....
But...my usually(and generally) sunny demeanour was challenged...well let’s just call it a.. *situation*.
At best, I was being ignored...and at worst, was intentionally undermined.

Direct requests were not carried out as requested. Simple requests were not understood.

I wondered if I was speaking English(don't forget...I'm a north Indian in Bangalore).

I thought the “situation” was causing unrest in an otherwise happy and functioning me. I took steps to raise my concerns....it was frustrating and turned my friendly smiles into _bitchycowness_.

It just goes to show that someone who is clever on paper can still turn out to be a bit dim....

And that made me impatient....

Choices we have...

I read this in the newspaper. Trying to recall it (if I can)..

From the Minute your born..
You do not make your own choices..

You do not choose your parents...your family..your sex..your zodiac sign.
Not even the colour of your skin..nor the sound of your name.

As you grow older...the society conditions you further...
You start babbling things others want to hear...
And, you learn to please others without pleasing yourself...

You are conditioned by...
Your first cousin...your teacher..your television..your job..your boss...Everyone!

Words....

Analytics me...

Behavioral differences could be described (very simply) as : men *oversimplify* and women *overcomplicate*.

Oh yes! I'm aware....this is an _oversimplification_ ...which proves my point anyways.

Thank you anonymous...

Here I had this packet to be courier'd to a bank containing some documents.
Somehow I lost the packet on road (flew away from my bike while riding).
I also went to the way back..following the same road hoping I'll find it lying on the road..
No luck I had...and so eventually gave up my hopes with that.
Not that the packet had some important documents...were just some xeroxed letters of which I could always make a copy again..and then I almost forgot the incident...

Now, this fine day..I have this office mail guy handing over the same parcel to me.

Someone generous might have found this lying on the road..and did actually posted the parcel back to me back..(obviously I had my address / phone number written at the back)...the parcel was completely intact..un-opened.

Incidents like this make you feel good..isn't it?

Thank You Anonymous.!!
