Today was a relatively good day. Paid the Electricity bill. 'Visited' office :) ...the CFO had some clarifications in the financial model but was busy to take time out and discuss with me. The discussion is now postponed to tomorrow Sunday, yup Sunday. Returned home tired in the afternoon, tired of driving :), only to see the main door locked. Mummy and Guddu went shopping...the usual stuff...clothes and jewellery. Made me wait for an hour. When they returned, i happened to watch the last 5 minutes of 'New Police Story', the Jackie Chan movie. The last scene in the movie is Jackie Chan and a kid sitting and talking. Background...The kid's father was killed by the police while he was trying to steal food for his son, and Jackie Chan happens to be a police officer on the scene (but did not kill the father). He then sees the kid crying over his fathers body and tries to help him. After this scene, they show him talking to the kid and he then says something very simple yet profound and meaningful, "Life is all about unexpected turns and events. Sad things happen." at this point in time I thought he's gonna say something really deep and complicated. But he says, "But we should forget about the past and be good". Yup, simple and meaningful. This last line made my day.
Then walked to the colony in the evening, we purchased a pipe to water the tennis court, its become dry, uneven and dusty. Watered the tennis court with the pipe and then played badminton. Had pani puri on the way home, then had dinner at home and am now blogging while listening to music. The song 'In the End' by Linkin Park somehow fits perfectly as my story :)
