It has been a bad start to the year so far. But I hope things to turn around very soon. I do not see things moving up north with my career. My personal life has not been good either.
Relationships are complicated. Things that you expect don't get all the time. All you can do is to forget the past and look forward.
I am positive and I welcome the new dawn with a big smile. I start it all afresh. A new beginning and a lovely one. This will be a beginning which will make me happier than ever.

Dirty politics
War of words has begun again. The Shiv Sena and MNS have been trying to impress the "marathi manoos", but Alas!, they will never be successful in doing that. The Indian voter is far more intelligent and sensible and will vote not for Maharashtra or UP or Bihar. He would vote for India.
Shiv sena was formed with an intention of solely advocating the pro-marathi ideology which then transformed to the one supporting a Hindu nationalist agenda. But the fact is, it has never been able to transform itself. It is still a party with a pro-marathi ideology. It is seen form its actions. It is trying so hard to play the vote bank politics, but has never been able to come to power on its own.
No doubt Mumbai belongs to Maharashtra, but it also belongs to India. When Mumbai was under terror seige, everyone in India was grieving. No one at that point in time thought Mumbai belonged only to Maharashtra. What was the Shiv Sena and MNS doing when the 26/11 attacks happened? Just attack ing the celebrities and industrialists will not help.
We are a secular nation and we can live where we want to. Please stop playing politics around Mumbai.

Reflections
An overview of what people think about me and my blog:
Samyukta (Sam) says:
"Having known kalpit for a lil more than a year now, I'd say he is a genuine guy . If your friends with him i guess you would agree with me on this. His blogs are a perfect reflection of his personality. I never knew until recently that he writes blogs. Having read them all I felt it made me understand him better cuz I got to know his point of view on topics which ideally was never a topic of discussion during our day to day conversation. It was a delight to read them all."

Proud of Achievement
Life changes in a flash. It is so true. Probably this is the perfect moment for me to consolidate and pen down my thoughts on how life has transformed.
I think of days when my mom used to show me an aeroplane flying in the sky and make me eat my dinner. Time when we used to watch cartoon in our neighbhour's television. Time when a family of four used to live in a single room which used to be a kitchen in the morning, dining room in the night and a bed room following that. Fond memories of those days still linger in my mind. The struggle for survival was at its very best. Those are moments in life where we used to fight for transformation from a lower middle class to a upper middle class.
Well this is a kind of struggle that most of them go through in their life. The only way to fight this struggle is to have loads of patience. Am happy that we as a family have fought this battle gracefully aceepting whatever life had to offer us.
We had to wait a while for the transformation to have taken place. Today am happy and proud. Today I don't have to feel happy by seeing a plane flying over my head, because I have been into a plane. I always used to think, I will never cross the Indian borders. But I am happy to have visited the western part of the world. I don't have to be happy staying in a single room, because I have MY OWN home. It is such a nice feeling. I am proud of myself to have achieved what I have achieved.
