It’s a vacation time guys :)

Me off for my looooooong awaited small vacation to Goa :). Yayyyyyy.. Will get back to your blogs when I am back, i.e on 1st September... So till then ciao!

Occupational Stress!

Last whole week was a pain-week for me! It started with fever and then I had a very bad lower back pain, which made me sit at home for entire two week-days and then again spoil my long weekend! I had to visit orthopaedic as the pain was just unbearable. I was just not able to sit! (W H A T???)! Doctor said, “Prachi, Mainly software professionals are the victim of this. We call it as ‘Occupational Stress’. It occurs because of mental as well as physical stress at workplace and ofcourse, long sitting hours and wrong posture of sitting. But the reason that it is now giving you so much of pain is mental stress! Take medicines for 10 days and if it persists, we will take x-ray. It might be lil serious then.” WTF!!! I was completely unaware that such thing exists on this earth. And now I am a victim of this so called decease! Though, as per doctor, I will be cured with the medicines still.. W H Y?!

You all are aware form my previous post that I have tensions in the office. (Though I mentioned it one or two weeks back here, it’s actually been for more than two months now). And it is going to continue for some more days. B U T, this visit to the doctor made me think ‘Is it worth spoiling my health so badly?!’. I am just 26 years old, and married only for one year. My whole life is ahead of me. There are some many responsibilities on me, there are so many things I want to do in my life.. I cant achieve everything carrying this gifted disease with me! And why should I when I can avoid it?!

This so called Stress has given me: Major-pain + four-different-types-of-allopathic-tablets + one-syrup + one-gel-to-apply-on-the-affected-area + acidity (allopathic medicines!) + some-more-stress(!!!)

Exercise or yoga is very important for me (rather for all of us), but for so many days I was just not able to take out the time for it (Read: I ignored it!).

Now I understand that:
a. Ignoring such a important thing is wrong.
b. I myself should care for my own health.
c. No one else will give a damn about it.

I just hope to get well before I go to Goa with my dear hubby (for second honeymoon ;)) and that is on this Saturday!

Is life really fair?!

In my professional life, things are not happening the way I anticipated some days back. The circumstances are forcing me to ask myself, if I did shortfall in something. I have given my best everywhere and in everything till now. Now it’s my turn to get something I really longed for so many years in my professional life.. I am not asking anything extraordinary.. I am just asking something which I deserve.. And the thing for which I waited for so long with patience.

I know that everything will be fine in the end. Whatever happens is always for good. Life can’t be so unfair to me! But still this middle lingering stage is killing me. This side or that side.. I want the decision! (And that too in my favour!)
