Its raining heavily in Ahmedabad

One small thing makes you so happy. Memories of the finest place, Kerala keeps rushing in. Rain wherever it is, is fun. I am back in my room after a long midnight stroll, in knee high water. The monsoon has announced its arrival in the west. Or at least here at IIM-A. I did walk with an umbrella, as in now way i can afford to fall sick.
Sitting in my room, with balcony doors open letting the rain in, is fun; but i do have to take the pain of clearing water from my room, or wait till vinod bhai is here to clean the room. Still what else can i afford here in the midnight when i am still to finish my preparation for Financial Reporting and Analysis, well known as MANAC or maniac. Yet another July(one of the finest friend i ever had too was born in July, another in May) has just born, yet the first day is so far for me.
Its raining outside and my balance sheet is not yet balanced!!!
For those who are peacefully sleeping, learn to dream...
"Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
Look to this Day!
For it is Life, the very Life of Life.
In its brief course lie all the
Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendor of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a Dream,
And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!
Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!"
-Kalidasa
