About me...

                            I was born in Patna , India. My Zodiac sign is SAGITTARIUS and DOB is 10th of December.
                            I am a Software Engineer by profession and working with India's biggest Softawre house, Tata Consultancy Services.
                            I completed my schooling in Patna. I joined Malaviya Regional Engineering College , Jaipur, the PINK CITY OF INDIA
                            for my graduation in Metallurgical Engineering in 1992. After completing my Graduation in 1996 , I joined Indian
                            Institute of Technology , Bombay, the INDUSTRIAL CAPITAL OF INDIA for Masters of Technology in Metallurgical
                            Engineering & Materials Science.I took up a job in Software Engineering after completing M.Tech with
                            Tata Consultancy Services, Delhi. Although Software Engineering was not my parent field, I must confess, I joined
                            this field because of the better prospects and diversified opportunities. Till now , my  experience with Software
                            Engineering is supportive to my career and hope to be same in future.
I am interested in...
                            Varies from reading, making friends, having discussion with people on various topics mainly political and fundaes
                            of life , cooking and of course computers. I am an avid reader with mostly interested in novels, books realted to
                            personal grooming and historical events. I love all novels of Erich Segal, especially 'Love Story' and 'Doctors'.
                            The best book I read for personal grooming is 'The Seven habits of Highly Effective People' by Stephan R Covey.
                            I always recommend this book to everybody. If you have not read this book, must read it.
                            I am very much interested in history of World War Two. I read few books on this like 'Mein Kemf' , an autobiography
                            of Hitler and 'The Third Reich'. I am also interested in history of Indian Independance. I would love to share my
                            knowledge to you if you are equally interested to know or share with me.
                            One more thing which I love to do is Channel Surfing on TV. People around me sometimes get irritated with me,
                            but I am helpless.
                            I really love to have Coffee and Cakes in one of the best Cafeteria of town with my friends.
I love...
                            The people that I cherish and love with all my heart are my Mother, Father and younger brothers Amit and Ravi and all
                            my friends who understand me and care about me.
I look in for friends...
                            Is loyality and trust and hate friends hiding things with each other.                             
I believe...
                            In sincerity and love for my country.My country may not have given me many materialistic comforts but it has given us
                            freedom to be yourself. My philosophy in life is to give your best to the present and that will take care of the rest.
I hate...
                            Let me think.. Actually nothing. But I don't like the people who lie with the others and try to do something for which
                            they can't justify themselves.
I failed...
                           In my inability to answer the question ' Why am I living ', 'Why should I take birth to die', 'Who are we' or 'What's life'  and
                           'Why we have to live in a society'. Thinking in this way has definately had effects on my life style. This doesn't mean I am
                           more like a philosophical kind of person, I do socialize with people, I do care about my family and friends. But all these
                           questions always peck in my mind. If you can help me in finding answers of these question or if u can share your views with
                           me , please let me know.
My dream...
                          Is to build my own home and get married and have a couple of kids with a big backyard and watch them play and run around
                          while I lie down on my lovely wife's lap. hope my dream will come true...
My message...
                        There are times when a person looks into a deep valley and thinks to himself that where am I going. It is a person's character
                        that holds him back from falling into the chasm (void space).
                        That character can take a person to great heights and to unimaginable depths. And again from the depths to greater heights.
                        Unless a person has seen the depths, he does not value the heights. Unless you fall, you cannot get up and run, unless you falter
                        you cannot really speed up. So, do not be afraid of the pitfalls, the losses along the way, the terrible times. Those are the times
                        to really learn the true meaning of life.
                        Be true to yourself and never do something for which you can't justify youself. That's all I want to say.
Last Word...
                        I don't know how true I am in depicting my views on various aspects of life, but I must say it's my honest attempt to write what
                        all I feel about the various things.
