Great Expectations

Engineer Sudeep Sodani. That would be my title in some time. And every time I mull over it, the funnier it sounds to me. Did I expect life to be so? A big NO! Expectations are a part of life, and getting nowhere near them comes complementary. I started out with dreams of being a scientist at the age of 7. As I aged, so did my dreams, making their way through an archeologist, a businessman and a pilot, to being an engineer.
Am I happy? Or do I look back at my choices with dissent? I am glad that I have a real job at hand but the thought of being one of those professionals, fascinates me to the core. Boy o boy! Me as the next Indiana Jones? What a life it would be! Reality bites back to bring me to the truth, to make me realize the essence of the real world. But I guess that’s the way the cookie crumbles.
Great expectations aren’t that great after all when they turn that smile upside down. Life is a roller coaster ride. What is the point if you anticipate in life? Let it be the way it is supposed to be. So I believe, do not expect, just remember to hope.

  1. Didn't know about the pilot part, but you'd already told me about the rest of the stuff earlier. Aim high man - have great expectations from you seriously!
