There had been almost 2 months of hectric activity, despite which i have been sharing my views, but the last one month(my last post was on 15th june)was fernzy
at its peak.
Office, home and friends and realtives all had a share of my time with the result even before i relaised it was already July end approaching.
And i completed one more important thing which i had been palnning to complete, REgistration of marriage of my daughterAnd i admit i had done littel except entrusting the work to a well meaning friend affectionately called as Meesai R.
It had a dampening effect on purse but still considering atht both daughter and son in law find it difficult to have even aday's leave at their will and fancy, the money spent was worth while as the task was completed in an hour's time after all of us assembled sharp at 11.30 am on Friday, the 22nd.
And the period that went by had its share of parties too.Some for official reasons and some for personal reasons and some more for friendly reasons. The venues were different, the brands were different and the snacks consumed all were different. It was few times at Taj Connemara(presently known as Vivanta), once to take care of the passion of a friend at Distill, on few occasions at Ambassador PAllava, Kanchi and later at Benze club and lastly at GRT Grand.Every one of the occasion i ahd been conscious 0of the purpose of my visit and had resolved many issues which would have been difficult to solve sitting at office. And some of these occasions i also used to gauge and locate my second line and some of the meets had been palneed just to take care of a wounded heart or a hurted soul.Every time when i came out of the party i was also conscious of the need to take care of my self (courtesy my friendson and a waiting wife and an understanding daughter) and i was also equally awre that many of my achievements in these parties and hotels will not be known to the outside world and i will continue to be an unsung hero for what all i have done for this institution of mine to achieve under the most demanding circumstances.But there were a hand picked few with me who understood the rationale and purpose of my every such meet, would suffice in the longer run.And if i were to rate the visits, GRT, tokk the honours for its ambience, Taj took the lead for its variety of drinks, Knachi for its Rasa vadai, Ambassador pallava, for a friendly warm atmosphere and so on.
Coming back to the week end , ie today, the day started like any other day. HAVING BROUGHT THE FIGURES FOR THE QUARTERLY REVIEW TO SOME RESPECTABLE AND ACCEPTABLE LEVELS, YESTER DAY , after some hectic arguments wih all most all those who were top in the hiarchy, who were unreasonable, quarrel some and demanding for better results all at the same time (KNOWING PRETTY WELL THAT we were waging a war with our back to the wall),i hav edecided to stay put at home. One reason is that i really wanted to relax, the second reason is that i wanted to break the boredom of my wife to some extent atleast and the third reason is that today happens to be the anniversary day of my mother (by her adoption of me as her son).My wife dutifully performed teh early morning rites by going tothe temple and i was ready by the time she returned after spending some time in a soul searching prayer.
Then the visit to the movie...THEIVATH THIRUMAGAL" by Vikaram (about which another post in due course) followed by another movie...Vengai, .One movie known for its finer moments, touching love and affection and a beautiful back ground music, and the other known for its fast track with song and fight sequences pitched in between , Two movies, which are totally opposite to each other in their contents, presentation and what not.And Theiva thirumgal WON THE HONOURS FOR THE DAY.
By the time we returned after having some light snacks(Kozhakattai and masal vadai along with a steaming filter coffee/Tea)the evening was fast approaching. And i had sufficiently charged my self for the next week ,( the week which would take me thru the financials of the bank, for the nth time,) and i have given some quality time to my wife in the process breaking her monoyony to some extent.
I missed my daughter when i saw the movie Theiva thirumagal, and felt the same way when i saw the movie 'varanam aayiram" (whwn i missed my friend son).MAY BE THESE SEPERATIONS MAKE THE LIFE MORE INTERESTING AND THE BOND OF LOVE AND AFFECTION MORE STRONG..
I start the next week with peace and content at this point of time..
