Managing the highs and the lows

Whenever I am extremely high or extremely low I invariably return to this cyber space called 'my blog'. At such times something inside is boiling, something is stirring and it needs to vent out. Words just ooze out and my blog just quietly absorbs them. I can never figure out why writing is so important to me. I tried, but gave up. And I do not know why anyone should read what I have written. Especially when I see the blog hits from countries like USA or UK or Germany, I just cant help but wonder, why would anyone sitting miles away, in another time zone would care to read my blog! It just makes me smile and think I wish I could meet them but then I also feel it is best to let it be an enigma.
Today I am on extreme high. Well nothing monumental has happened really. Just that last year has been a test of my patience and this year seems to pay it off. The environmental education sessions which I designed have shaped quite well and I am all excited to take it to schools. The pilot efforts went quite well and MKCL has agreed to fund the sessions in two under privileged schools. Just felt so good. And my research on river governance also has been maturing bit by bit. More I take the ownership of the subject sharper is my analysis. Again, it just feels so good.
A year in between though may seem like a set back in fact was so much of discovery. About my own self, about my work pattern, about my commitment to work.... everything... It has only added to my confidence.
Sometimes in life, everything seems just so perfect! Of course the imperfect state will also come back, I mean where is she going to go anyway! But I guess, sometimes all you need to do is to hang on, have faith and let things unfold at their own pace. Keep exploring the knowns and the unknowns will unfold eventually.
