Finally, newsletters!!
I have been writing for Corporate Newsletters for last 4 months. I am very happy as this is the best stream for me to write. You meet people working in corporate culture and you decide what one should write to motivate them or encourage them.
It is hard, I have been out of ‘Corporate’ world for last 4 years but one fact remains the same. We all are at the end of the day, working to sustain our lives and some facts, some fights and some emotions are the same.
It has been 4 months and the journey to write for ‘corporate’ world (though limited to Hyderabad) is going good.
I felt very happy, when I read an email in my inbox that says ‘we need more of them’.
I look up to God and say ‘Thanks’.
This week is Arthritis week on my blog. I wanted to start a day back BUT got messed up and forgot that there is no personal life for me (no personal relations and emotions) as far as writing is concerned. I will write till I can, maybe even on my death bed.
Since morning, I was going through an ulcer attack but then I just sat, relaxed and saw this email. I realised this is the month of ‘June’ and I am 4 days away from my Arthritis Anniversary, how can I forget to celebrate this on my blogJ.
So my first message to all arthritis patients – Disability is a road build by God to judge your abilities. It is a whiplash that hits you to tell – COME ON and JUST DO IT!
I belonged to a very middle class family where 7 people lived in a 2 BHK. There used to be no power for 8 hours and I spent my nights studying under the local lamppost of the community centre. We used to fill water from the common taps as Delhi has always faced ‘water crisis. I never had dreams like many of you as we had limited resources.
I lived for my family, I started working from the age of 16 to fund my education and then I got a job. Sometimes, I lived for parents then for siblings and then for in laws.
Then a day came and arthritis hugged me and all the ones, I loved left meJ. That was the time, I started writing. Sometimes, I made errors; sometimes, I was loved; sometimes, I was criticised. But I did not stop. Even today, my condition is bad, I am writing as ‘there is no bigger challenge or fight than fighting with yourself.’ The worst thing, we who suffer from arthritis cannot defend ourselves as you cannot fight against yourself. But you can create an army of will power to fight and sustain with your disabilities.
It is easy to GIVE UP but difficult to LIVE IT UP. Choice is yours.
I am not putting this post on my arthritis blog as it has a message for my all readers. If you would not have read my blog, I would have not found my meaning to live!
