Well, it all starts with a monotonous life cycle like every other person in today's world. The cycle in which you get up, run for work and then again come back home and sleep, and it goes on untill that time when it hits you so hard on the middle of your work. Was I suppose to be here? You feel that ache in your heart, asking yourself, Was I meant to do it? With the same ache I asked myself in the middle of my night shift. Was I suppose to be spending my lifetime in these 4 closed walls. And the heart spoke, No. With the decision goes the resignation later on the desk of my General Manager. As he checked my feedback from, there was this answer which he could not understand where I answered, Inner Peace. The question was, "what I am going to get in my next job which I am not getting in my current one?". With that he laughed and agreed my resignation. I still had to spend my last few days. Those last one's were the most painful as the heart was already living the life of his dreams. As the days passed, came the last. All I wanted to say was. I am free. My thoughts were running wild for the preparation I was supposed to do before leaving for my first solo trip in the Himalayas. It was as if there was a presence who was pulling me towards it, there was something it wanted me to feel. Eventually I started planning, watching video on YouTube, googling all kind of safety measures, reading about the places. I was happy. On the February of 2018, I sat of for the trip with no fixed number of days or the particular place to visit. It was as if that I was free, I was a child again. The whole world was my playground. With faith in nature and the blessing of my loved ones. I finally started my journey. I could hear my heart my pumping that I was actually doing it. I took a ticket for Chandigarh. It was a 8 hour journey from Jaipur. I couldn't sleep as the excitement was rushing throught my veins. My eyes were all over the place looking each and every detail. I wanted to keep each and every moment of this journey as a memory to look back and say to my self, that this made me who I am today.
