  Wanted to own a Jeep since the elementary school days. So decided to finally get one, now that I am going to be on the road for a while checking out our many national parks.  And was very lucky to find one in the Military Green color just like the original Willys MB .  Willys back then,  And Now. 

Bye Felicia!   This was the first thought I had as soon as I called it. But then on second thought I told myself that it's more like  Phir Milenge!   for me. And that reminded me of this quote by Richard Bach (read a lot of his work during the college days and till this day have great admiration for his thoughts);  " Don't be dismayed by good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends. " So with that in mind, I started to plan my next steps...

in this upcoming journey was to actually breakaway from the corporate world. It's been almost 26 years since I graduated and since then have been doing the same usual stuff we all do; work-worry-work. Alright, you are correct, it was not all that painful and I did get to experience quite a few good things on the way. This time though,  it's different !   Or rather I am ready for the life to be a bit different.  PS: After 18 plus years at TIBCO (now Cloud Software Group) it does feel a bit strange, like leaving your family behind. I certainly hope to see you guys again (and of course it would be better if it’s “in person”).
