When your profession check-mates you !!

It is just astounding to think about what life centered around a well profiled profession could yield in return. Well, these were their unsolicited bonus or bumper issues to me .. things that I did'nt ask for but came by as freebies. It made me gracefully heavier by a few kgs, rewarded me with those "beautiful" semi-rings beneath my eyes, added mental stress which replaced my dream jaunts to heaven with the occasional nightmares, dislodged my eating habits beyond restoration etc. ... and it was at a point when it began encroaching into my private spiritual priorities that I had a rude awakening ... speaking to myself inwardly, I said ... aha !! this needs to be dealt with.

Then I switched on my Dad's words of counsel in my mind and decided to give it serious consideration. So, on Tuesday this week an elliptical cross-trainer became mine own, swore to my dear eyes to provide them exposure more to books than to my pc notebook and began stocking my fridge with nutritious food to straighten-up my diet. Well, I would like to think that this is just part of a mid-life course correction.

Now, working on sustaining the correction is the real key and could be fodder for possibly a new blogpost sometime later.
