INSPIRING ARTICLE. After my graduation I had gone through a career guidance programme with the psychology dept of the University and the Prof had expressed concern stating that while everything was fine, there was one major issue that of a total lack of drive and ambition. To a question whether it was in the context of success and money, he replied in the affirmative. When asked whether life was not about making it interesting, living life fully and loving the life which you want to live and whether success and money were not incidental to what you do in life, he smiled and said that , as long as you have no issue about it, it is perfectly OK. Over the past 45 years I have led a very interesting life and have done whatever you can imagine. Most of the life we (incl my wife) have been more in the service space than in the commercial space, encouraging and supporting DOING. WHILE WE HAVE NEVER DRIVEN, NOR BEEN DRIVEN, WE HAVE ALWAYS MOVED AND BEEN MOVED BY LOVE, and the approach has always been to make a difference to whomsoever and whatever we have touched in our life. We have never had a shortage of money ever, and have been recepients of abundance in the form of generosity from people from all walks of life. We have led a SMART (SIMPLE, MORAL, ACCOUNTABLE, RESPONSIVE AND TRANSPARENT LIFE) LIFE and considers ourself blessed. We have learnt to or should I say trained ourselves to, accept life on an AS IS, WHEREIS, WHATEVER IS BASIS and consider the whole world as one large joint family. Anantharaman.
