The world is waiting with bated breath on what will become of the Middle-East. The Mobaraks and Gaddafis have ensured that 2011 has kicked off with no shortage of excitement. After England forced India to a tie, Ireland shocked England in the ICC Cricket World Cup in what became the highest run chase ever in the 36 year history of World Cup cricket. England came back strong to rout South Africa in a low scoring tie all within a week. Certainly, the World (Cup) interestingly poised...
"My World" in 2011 has been no less exciting. After being on the road for work across the US, Canada and India since the 3rd of January, I ended the month of February in the Blue Mountains of Pennsylvania, picking up a new skill, namely skiing, and some new friends on what turned out to be a beautiful sunny day with temperatures in the 40s, making for a perfect family one day outing.
2011 has been a mixed bag so far with work, family and social musings evenly interwoven. It's also had its share of ups and downs with extreme pressure situations, minor victories and even some utterly funny moments. But amidst all these, there has been a singular focus (like my honorable cousin from Albany likes to call it). And as Sunday the 6th of March has rolled by some interesting ideas have taken shape in my mind.

And of all the virtues I have grown to develop and represent over the years, patience is going to be prime...
2011 has also been different in a strange sort of way. While I have only grown stronger about what I BELIEVE IN, I have also been asking for a lot more out of LIFE and also getting it. I'm deeply grateful for the lucky breaks but am also increasingly sure that I will get what I deserve, so long as I keep giving it everything I have.
It's 1037 PM on Sunday 6 March 2011 and it's time I went to sleep. There's a lot more to give when I wake up in a few hours from now. Cause it's only 65 days done in 2011, 300 more to accomplish everything that I WANT to do this year. And my only prayer to the ALMIGHTY is, "Let me DO only what I WANT TO DO" now and forever to come...
