Start a new life


 I have read somewhere that change is the only thing that is constant in life. People change, time changes, everything changes. Thus it becomes important for us also to change with the passing time.
Sharing this little incident with you all, what had happened was I was just trying to have fun and I happened to make a comment on one of my friends. She didn’t take that too well and got a little offended and that’s when she told me that “I have changed” I didn’t like how that came across. Although I was the one who started with the prank but that’s not why I liked it to end. I first thought that it was the fact that she is upset with me bothering me the most but only later did I realise that I was a lot more bothered by the statement she made that “I had changed” I couldn’t take that.
I thought about it and that is when I realised and I can now say that I learnt a lesson for life that Change is inevitable. Everybody changes with time and life is all about moving on. Don’t we all grow up? Isn’t that a change too? So what do we do? Stop growing up? No. We don’t do that. That’s why we should welcome changes. Changes are crucial, they are a part of growing up.
Telling you all about the biggest change I have brought in my life and that pretty much changed my life. It was this job offer that I got from Bangalore. Soon after I completed my graduation, I got this job offer to work with a bank in Bangalore. My city of residence is Mumbai, India. I had always been the family- type. I was quite a Mamma’s girl. To an extent that I was even teased at college because I used to ring her up every now and then.
So the very idea of moving to another city for work didn’t go too well with everyone at home. I too was sceptical, I too doubted if I had the courage that it takes to stay all on my own. My mother left it on me. She didn’t want her love to influence my career in any manner. She left it completely on me to decide whether I wanted to take this up or not. With a lot, hell lot of thinking I finally decided on taking it up. I knew how important this job was for my career and I knew that it was time I became independent and started to live on my own.
This was the biggest and the boldest step of my life. It takes a lot of courage to decide to live all on your own when all these years you have been overly pampered by your family. I took that step to change my life to #StartANewLife.
