…I cleaned the cabin. All my belongings in the bags. Put all pens, white board markers in a drawer. A soft tap on the edge of the drawer and it  gracefully closed. A chapter ends…

As I come out of my cabin, with the bags filled with belongings, my mind was still at the terrace where all my team mates were wishing me luck! Many who I knew for over 9 years and many who were pretty new. Elevator stopped at the basement , doors opened, the lady announced that I’m where I’m supposed to be after passing basement button…I came out hurriedly but my mind was still with those old pals with whom I shared most of my times through the day. It was like a show reel playing a movie in a slow motion.

With me in the car, engine running, everything was set for the journey. Have I taken everything that I should? As I gently pressed the accelerator, I could see my friends in the rear view mirror. With the excitement of what is in front of me and sadness of what I am leaving behind, I read the sentence on the mirror – “Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear”

๐Ÿ™‚ Love my team.

Some pics captured on my cell – There are many captured on other cell phones. Would love to get them all here. Pass those pictures to me on: nine 55 two 55 zero 21 zero

    All the best for your future endeavour, Anish.
    Couldn’t make it to your see off event due to some prior commitment but will be in touch with you by different means for sure.
    Best of luck Sir. Stay fit, stay healthy.

    “If you want to do anything, stop doing everything”
    I still remember this tagline on an A4 page

    I’ve learnt a lot from you my friend, and I know I’ll keep catching you again n again, for that new learning, for that inspiration

    Keep climbing new heights in life, Keep smiling at every difficult patch of life, what’s next is going to be even superb!

    Incredible indeed…
