My dear friend Stalin and my new role

My dear friend Stalin is leaving the city and moving to Delhi this Sunday. And I cannot tell how much I will miss him. He is someone who has stood like a pillar in my life - both professionally and personally. But I am also happy that this relocation is going to be a great move for him and I wish him all the best from my bottom of my heart. I am sure, that I will be visiting him very soon for my first vacation to North India, as well as my first with my baby Adya. And will there will be many more trips...!!!!

Changing mindsets is a very challenging proposition and it is easier said than done. And that is exactly what I am trying to in my new company. I am hopeful, that though the initial days would be diffucult to tide over, there will be change in attitude and mindset, once people see the benefit of change. Though we live in a very advanced world - technology driven, buzzing with marketing and advertising ideas which are cutting edge, sometime we can get all our fundamentals wrong. And when your foundation is not strong, then building on it will only be a surefire disaster.

I am hoping that I would be a catalyst for a change in mindset and attitude, which will make a huge difference to each one's life.

My First day at blogging

I used to be an active blogger in my college days. But somehow, life took me places and I never found time to pursue this actively.
But my new bolg is an attempt to keep an online diary of sorts which will keep track of my trail of thoughts and keep me connected with some really important people with whom I wish to share this blog.
I must admit here that my sis Sri, inspired me to pursue this again, after she posted a first blog last week. Thanks Sri. And like any proud sister, I have to say a few things about Sri. But sometimes, words speaks volumes of a person. Check out her blog http://omadvaita.blogspot.com/ she has written an ode remembering my dear Dad who we miss so greatly.
