Did i miss my train...Altogether???

By -
2day i missed my train first time in life by 5 mins. I ran frantically from bus stand to Bangalore railway station with luggage.. My heart was racing at double the speed.. i was sweating like mad.. i desperately wanted to catch the train.. but it left the station by the time i reached platform.. i felt helpless..frustrated...angry upon myself... the same kind of helplessness which i felt when my state got bifurcated against our wishes....which i felt when i failed to clear UPSC mains in 2nd attempt.... which i felt when i was forced by situations to resign my job..which i felt when i read the problems of my country in books... I am devastated.... I wanna cry like hell.. i wanna smash someones face with my fist.. if not some1's, atleast mine in mirror... This is such a pathetic situation to be in..

No-one understands me. The failure in mains is something which i am still not able to come to terms with. Perceptibly i did no mistake. I tried my level best.. i gave my 100%.. but upsc is so unpredictable that it leaves u with surprizes. Well.. i was always ready for such a  surprize. But people around me started feeling bad more than what i feel... My mom wants me to rejoin job, as she could get me married to a good girl. Only Employed guys get good matches.. She isn't proud of the fact that Her son is preparing for the toughest exam of the country.. She feels that she gave me enough time..i.e., 2yrs... My dad n mom want me to go back2 earning phase of life n settle down like every other human being... We take Birth- We earn - We marry - We get children - We retire n then We die... this is not the life i want to lead... If every1 follows the same lifestyle, there wouldn't have been great leaders, poets, cricketers etc etc in our society..All i need is time... that too my time.. I donno why people are so emotionally attached to MY DAMN TIME ! this is once in a lifetime oppurtunity for me.. I myt fail in all my attempts, still i wanna give my 100% and no1 understands dat thing.

I just want a break from these relationships around me. I need absolutely no disturbance. I love you all.. but i love my goals n ambitions too... I can't sacrifice my goals, to satisfy your needs... This myt seem to be a monologue of a frustrated failed upsc candidate..well, i dont mind to be called like dat... Afterall, thats your perception.. I am not gonna go down,without putting up a fight...im gonna take upsc headon n even if fail, i consider it to be the failure of UPSC which missed me. Only "I" am the best friend of Myself. Cheers Sathish !!!

    Satish, All the best for UPSC exams! Your time is yours all the way. Parents may feel you have to get married at right age, that is the case with every other person in India, so don't get frustrated upon things and declare yourself as "NO ONE UNDERSTANDS ME" most of us do, because we are in same boat ( not in UPSC though). And most of the times, people win, Loving your parents is a separate thing and having your own ideals,ideas,thoughts,goals and aspirations is a separate thing altogether. We, the population of our proud nation had once had the detached attachment in our traditions ( Rama was sent away from his kingdom to get his education under vishwamitra and he brought a bride along with him WITHOUT his parent's notice to Ayodhya while returning ) I don't know, what happened to our traditions over a period of time, we started attaching our sense of life and purpose of life to our child's money earning capacity and wants him to follow the herd ( crowd/society) like a flock of sheep. So, explain it to your parents if you can... " My love and respect to you is different from my love towards my own life both are mutually exclusive" , if they understand fine! if they don't, well they will understand when you crack your UPSC interview. So all the best my friend.

    Sincerely,
    A person who aspires to be a writer but is grilled by every other person I meet to get married.

Life of An IFS Probationer... A Traveller Within

By -
Its been long since i wrote something. Let me get back to something which i love doing...Expressing Myself  and this time its about my IFS Training @ IGNFA! IFS training encompasses a very exhaustive and elaborate 16.5 month long of Travel and Touring. When u visit more than 20+ states , 50+ Cities, Innumerable Places of Heritage, Forests, Forts, National Parks,Temples,Monasteries,Architectural Sites, Natural Wonders etc etc., all in a span of just One-Year Odd, it demands a book or two to be written to narrate the Stories of Touring, Travel and Fun. However, for the lack of space n time, i am writing this very brief blog post to Cover the Majority of Places and Appreciate the Uniqueness that this Diverse Nation has in Store at every place we set our foot on. This is more of a Tour Guide for Must Visit Places in India for a traveller within You. Unlike the trainings of some other Civil Services which happen in Sandwich pattern, IFS training happens for a 16.5 month period...

IFoS - Civil Services dilemma... Dissolved, Decoded n Decimated...(Part-2)

So, after having dealt with the necessity to apply for IFoS along with Civils during prelims, let me get into my strategy in cracking IFS. Before i proceed any further let me tell you the condition i was in when i decided to give IFS mains. - I cleared IFS prelims cutoffs, mains is good 2 months away - I already had indepth knowledge of Geography optional as this is my 3rd attempt at Civils Mains. - I absolutely had no idea of either Agriculture or Geology. - I had relatively good free time as i left job (Very important factor) - I had enough knowledge about current happenings / major issues in News . - I knew that majority of those who cleared IFS cutoffs would be in same situation as mine. The reason i am saying these things is because you might be at a different stage of preparation compared to me and hence can compare the above parameters with yours. I had a very clear strategy that i shouldn't overdo IFS prep as this will have direct impact on my Civils m...
