Its over. The exam season is over. Within a matter of weeks, the verdict will be out.
The questions over hard works, the prayers, the midnight oils, the online discussions, the dejections over mock scores, the sleepless nights over taunts, the petty excuses made in office, saying no to several dates, the no holiday weeks, the goose bumps over pictures posted by IIM friends, the moments of good for nothing feelings….and obviously the money spent, will be answered . Soon, the common thread that binds together approximately 2 lakhs visionaries (respect to each and every aspirant for standing up for their dreams) will be broken and the society will see the emergence of classes among them. There will be the James Bonds, the Lucky Ladlas, the Dark Horses and ofcourse, the Losers (as the society calls ruthlessly!).
And Certainly like everybody else, I will also be falling among them.
But , wait a moment! Does the result matters so much? Will it stop me from dreaming…the dream that I have had preserved since childhood and strive to breathe its reality each and every moment? Is this the only staircase to my destination? Will it stop me from keeping my promises? Is it strong enough to contain me from becoming successful me? Will my love life be affected?
Life moves on. And so do I.
With or without MBA, I will be moving on. I have promises to keep. I have destinations to reach.
If I fall into being the James Bonds or the Lucky Ladlas or the Dark Horses I will be moving on with a heart full of gratitude and a pat from my inner soul. And If I fall into the Losers community, I will move on with the conviction that the pat is overdue and have to move faster. I know, it will be hard to digest after devoting 2 years of my life for this, but I have to let it go!
Whatever may be the case, the thing that is almost certain is the high surge of energy with the publication of results.. And I am going to channelize that energy to make it to the best of my present. And in either case, the latest Dhoom 3 dialogue suits well-
Bandein hain hum usske, Hum pe kiska zor,
Ummedon ka sooraj, Nikle chaaron ore!
Iraadein hain fauladi, Himmatein har kadam,
Apne haathon kismet likhne, Aaj chalein hain hum!
Signing off!
