Depression?

What actually is this phase of life about? Many say many definitions about it. To make it simple, can we say it is the stage where we lack our confidence in whatever we do? Yes, I believe so. We lack confidence in ourselves, become very pessimistic in one's self. Reasons could be many - prolongated wait - waiting for something to happen but if it doesn't happen soon, we go depressed and hence lacking confidence in ourselves.

Someone told me - we pray God to grant our wishes to happen. We wait putting all our efforts to make 'em happen. He said God grants us some soon, some later and some after our lives. After life things can be understood and no point in planning for them. But the things which we seek during our life will happen, but have to 'wait'. In this process, even if we put our efforts, we won't get what we want immediately - which may lead to this depression.

We really can't have control over getting depressed. Many say be optimistic, think positive etc etc. But it's not that easy as it's told or it's not which we can do it forcibly. It's the mental game of one's self which is dependent on the circumstances one goes through in his/her life.

I would say we being depressed isn't a big deal - after all that's our mental capability of taking things/ facing obstacles. One may be very strong and another may be very weak to face the circumstances. Truly individual though. But, when someone else realizes that we are depressed and tries giving the necessary support for us to overcome such phase of life - is someone like a God to us. Things will happen, may be soon or later, but these kind of people makes our lives easy even when we are going through the toughest phases of life.

If we have at least one such kind, we are lucky. We just need to recognize them, who will be just around us and yet we fail to understand them properly... unfortunately...

Cheers!!

Companionship...

How sick would it be to lead a dependable life? Dependability isn't bad; It's good at times, and equivalently bad at some other aspects of life.

We might have so many friends whom we call 'good' friends. But there will be very few out of those 'many' who will help us when we are in a real need, even before we ask for any help. Not sure why we always go beyond things/ people whom we like and ignore/ give less priority to them who likes us. Is it being human? Well, it's just the explanation we give after all happens.

I personally don't like to live a dependable life. But circumstances may lead us to take help/ support from others to keep up the optimistic views alive. We will be surprised when we get to know the real nature of those so called friends who backs off when we need them. Subsequently, we will be surprised as well when we get support from whom we never would have expected., yet keeping our self-respect alive. I don't know whether my phrases or sentences makes sense, but I know for sure at some or the other time, you would know what I'm talking about - when you happen to face that situation.

Life changes minute-by-minute. I thought attitude never changes, but behaviour does. In fact, attitude does change as well depending on under what circumstances we are bought up and under what circumstances we are living now, when both are mutually exclusive.

How good it would be when we would always be happy, with a balanced personal & professional life. We can't be happy when either one or both of them goes down. Under those circumstances, we will be forced to believe few things which we never would have believed till that point. Nevertheless, a worth companion does makes our lives easy even under those stressful situations/ phases of life. It's not easy to get that kind of friend/ companion as we talk about it. But once we get that person, our lives will be under control, no matter what worse situation we are in.

How many of us would have got such kind of people around who actually wishes to share our sorrows/ tough times? I believe significantly very few of us would have. There will be an end to every obstacle in life. We just need to keep our spirits high and work on it. I'm thankful to all of 'em who supported/ supporting me even in my tough times either.

I don't know why I keep writing such things which may sound crap to few people. But to be honest, this way I puke out ma heart, I feel very relaxed. Thanks to this 'blogging' concept ;)

All That Glitters Ain't Gold...

Ever heard of 'Insanity' in the professional world?

One of the third grade company I've ever seen in my life so far. People say "What's there in a Name"... Truely said.... But I've got trapped with that name itself... LOL.. A company which claims it has all the Knowledge Force, but up on my experience, that's an unethical, cheap standards company which only 'forces' people to believe it's a good company. Located in US, claiming that they have great people and they always will have great results, and a billion dollar company. LOL. Yea, a billion dollar company with no ethics. No company/ Org. will grow if it doesn't follow 'ETHICS'..... & so the people... I wonder everyone in that company are unethical or just that cheap sample whom I've faced... At times, a small sample can imply the whole body's nature...

Everyone can be Legal, but these kind of third grade companies can not be 'Ethical' and for sure, sometime it goes pathetically down if it doesn't follow ethics.

Here's the story - I was with one company when I entered USA. Everything was going good, but slow. That was the time when this brutal company came in and approached me with all the false and cheap (which I realized later) things and let me join them, leaving my company. I transfered my VISA and started working with them. That's what was the sickest decision I've ever made in my life. As an employer, one should help an enployee to over come the tough times they are facing. If can't help much, act professional. But no. This company sent me a termination letter immediately after getting to know that my current project is completed and I'm on bench, instead of holding me and placing me somewhere else. Not even a day notice period has been given to me where at least 15 days notice is required for an individual to work on that situation and look for alternatives.

I realized later that this cheapster company took me ONLY because I'd a job in hand even in that tough recession time and wanted to make money out of me.

Of course I'm in a good situation now with another great company, but just wondering why did I take such a cheap decision to join this company. Nevertheless, it was a lesson for me, a very great lesson. I would never take any steps without prior research and thinking.

This may sound stereotypic as it's my own individual experience and opinion about that
company. But I'm sure there will be many who have become victims with this company's traps.
With such people one can hardly do anything, except repenting for trusting them. They will be unethical as always, no matter what happens to an individual.

I haven't mentioned the company's name though, because I'm Ethical enough. But anyway, right people will definitely know whom I'm talking about, people who are victims of that company or might have affected in some or the other way. ;)

Finally, No big deal in being Legal. Being Ethincal is what one (as an individual or as an organization) has to be.

Be careful in taking any step regarding your career. These kind of cheapsters will come in between, diverting your minds. Mind you, All that glitters is not gold...
