Upset with myself

Sometimes in life, you feel as though you are caught in the middle of nowhere. I was in one such situation over the past weekend. The house warming function at my place was organized for 14 Feb and 15 Feb. So you can expect a lots of preparation to go into that.

In the first place, it is my parents who have taken so much of tension and headache to construct the house, I thought let me atleast do a bit for the housewarming function. But things did not go my way.

I am very happy and sad at the same time.

I am happy firstly because I got leave on 14 Feb and 15 Feb which happened to be Saturday and Sunday, secondly the function went well, really well, by the grace of god. I met loads of relatives who turned up to the function,. I thank all of them, coz it was just through the telephone that my parents had invited them.

I am sad because, I went to the office till 13 Feb, could not apply for leave even a single working day. So all the preparation to the function had to be done by my parents. And that is something which I am not able to digest.

I can recollect the song by John Mayer - No Such Thing where in he sings

" And all of our parents
They're getting older
I wonder if they've wished for anything better " ..........

I may have helped my parents with some monetary stuffs, but I think I should have done better, worked a little harder at office and taken a leave well in advance. I wish such a thing does not happen in future

By god's grace everything went very well.. Thanks God.
