Been bit busy for the last 4 weeks or so. Loads of work at office plus stuffs at home keeping me busy.
Finally saw a trekking event to the Himalayas. The team size was 8. It would have been my first trek to the Himalayas. I have been working hard for the last 8 months.
I had every reason to be hopeful for getting short-listed. But in the end, I got rejected because, there were more experienced people who had enrolled. More experienced in the sense, they had trekked Himalayas before.
As of today feeling very awful. Not able to digest the fact that, 8 months dedicated hard work and still one step behind. I need to work harder. I dont know why people including me take rejections this seriously.
Saw a couple of kids of construction workers, this morning. They were so happy enjoying their packet of biscuits. They were so so happy with the basic amenities and here I am finding it very hard to even digest the fact that, I ve been rejected for Himalayan trek.
Why do we have such high hopes. Why cant we simply try and leave the rest to God. Why cant we simply be happy with smaller things in life.
I promise, I shall improve.
Cheers,
PS - due to a drop out in the shortlisted members, I got invited for this trek again. By God's grace, this thing has happened, on 5 September 2014. As of today, 6 September 2014, still deciding on how to proceed. Keeping fingers crossed whether I can make it!
Cheers
