‘Hey Happy New Year!!!’ my
colleague greeted me.
“What new year? Everything is the same, same office, same desk, same
YOU!!, What’s so great about today. It’s like every day.” I so much wanted to
say that. But again, I have been told that I should be nice to people around
me.
“Happy New Year Dude” I replied
to him with same enthusiasm which he had shared.
“So what did you do? Drank like a
fish. Your most favorite activity?” He enquired
Again, I never wanted to break the bad image I had. My life is personal
and people keep assuming things which I don’t deny. I won’t like to tell them
that I enjoyed the peace at home watching an English tv series with lots of
food and sprite. I mean why anyone should be bothered how I live my life but
then human nature is to nose into other people’s life.
“Yeah! You guessed it. Hope you
too enjoyed yours.” I replied and sat on my desk to end the conversation and
get back to my life.
“Where man, we are not lucky like
you, had to sit with my wife and kids”
Who told you to marry? No one had put a gun on your head to do that.
And if you have now got married then atleast try to be happy with them.
Hipocrat!!
“Ok! A nice family time.” I
replied thinking it will be end of a boring conversation.
“So what are your Resolutions for
2017?” he continued
“God it is not easy to end a conversation. Why are interested in my
resolution. You take one and break it.” I answered in my thoughts.
“I don’t take resolutions. It’s
something not serious but funny.
“What you don’t make resolutions? Its good
thing. What is funny about it?”
“Well I think 99% of resolutions
are Resolu-Shuns.. that end by 2nd week of January.”
“No! it depends on you and your
will power. If you want you can do it. Probably you don’t have.”
Oh Man! You take back those words. It is my will power that you have
never been slapped by me since you walked into this office.”
Well my will power helped me and
I asked calmly “Ok what was your last year resolution?”
I guess he never expected me
asking that. :P
“I don’t keep it but I was in
general asking.” He replied shyly.
“Well bro! you don’t keep it, I
don’t keep it. Let’s keep it that way.”
I turned around and switched on
my laptop.
Resolutions are personal goals that one sets. And it is no rule that
you should do it only on Jan 1. Anyday you decide to do something, tell
yourself that is your resolution and not a January Resolu – Shun!!!

Live life as it comes...
Public images are hilarious, at times we realise people know us more than ourselves.
Resolutions are very funny... I have a record of never reaching my targets set on jan 1st :P.. of course, you can do things as per your will power but not always.
Even I spent my new years eve watching Sherlock series with some coffee and good food.
Happy new year!
