- Yes it started with sad part which never settles the pain of fulfilling the dream and bringing the lifetime happiness for my granny, for few of which I'm personally responsible. She departed from all of us on Jan 8th 2017 on the auspicious day of Vaikuntha Ekadashi physically, but mentally/emotionally she will always be with us with her blessings as lighting for our life.. It's been a year loosing her and nothing in return fulfills her loss to our family..
This is the last photo of ever i could able to get in my DSLR with my granny which I always cherish.
#Feb&Mar-17:
- I was just recovering from the greatest demise of my granny, a surprise which I never thought was In front of me! Yes I am talking about my dream destination, i.e, flying to Germany which I was planning to do in the year of 2013 for higher studies and that time my Job changed my mind.
That's one of the wonderful time spent in my lifetime. Learning german language, spending time with people who respect you and exploring the new continent and their nature love impressed me a lot. The discipline towards life, their simplicity, their honesty and their helping nature changed my thinking style and empowered me from within.
Spent time in sight seeing places such as colone-cathedral, Dortmund's football museum, lippstadt's nature and finally visiting another country 'Netherlands'.
Special thanks to Sowmya and karthik for inviting me to their place - utrecht, Netharlands for their hospitality. Which infact added country count#5. A lovely couple being away from home really added the flavor of family and love in my journey with their treatment.
With them, I could able to visit every bachelor's dream destination - Amsterdam!! :)
A historical city of European continent famous for all its architecture and beauty etc..
A city which is built on the river and beautifully maintained its very old architectures and world famous museums ( madame tussaud) and many more.
The city which changed my life. I realized something strange which i never thought of!
"Beauty can be bought anytime in this world, but not the beautiful heart which loves you unconditionally and unintentionally !!"
This one thought completely changed my life and helped me to take some important decisions of my life!
I could able to make few good friends in the place where i stayed, from each one of them i took one important learning for my life to live strong and long :)
#APR/MAY/JUNE/JULY :
- I may live hunger but not without Love! A bowl of care and love on it is enough for my survival on this lovely earth. After all what remains even in our absence is the love what we spread and the lovely people with whom we are associated.
Though the summer was Hot, Life time decisions were covered me as HAT.
One beautiful day in the month of May, My parents met Pooja and her family, and took lifetime decision to send Pooja along with me in the journey of my life to care, share and decided her as my Pair...
What you need when you have the person who knows your complete past, present and decided to take breath together in an unseen future! I thank God for giving her to my life.
That's what i told you in the beginning , Past and future are always gets connected by your Present! The place, people, struggle and very valuable memories I left during my studies in Davangere got connected when Pooja entered my Life.
I never thought that, my soulmate belongs to the family who gave me shelter during my college days (Chennagiri Virupakshappa dharmala strust - Hostel). This is one of the mesmerizing moment of my life.
Many people asked me love marriage or arrange marriage! that's a good question by the way ;) But You definitely need to love to get married. And being loved by someone is blessed life.
For me its Marriage, and I don't name it like love/arrange!
Pre-Engagement Photoshoot
- On June 11th 2017, Got engaged with Pooja Chennagiri (Thus changed to Myna) and I welcomed her to my world with love and only love.
- On the next weekend after an engagement, on June 18th I got to travel to Minneapolis on official purpose which infact brought us close together to understand more about each other.
- With lot of fun at work there, I did drive CAR for the first time in USA and went to the most awaited dream of my life Chicago. Roaming chicago and visiting willy's tower was an amazing experience. 110 floors tall building and you could see upto 80miles from top of the building was really a thrilling experience. I would like to thank specially to Vaidya, Sowmya, Divya and shirly for being there at MN to enjoy the beautiful time together.
#AUG/SEPT/OCT/:
- After coming back to the India in July, got busy with Searching home. It was the biggest challenge I ever faced in 2017. Being in capital city of karnataka and being kannadiga,if i speak in kannada i dont get home here !! This is ridiculous but true!
- One more amazing journey in the month of September with Roommates was visiting Hogenakal falls and Mahadeshwara betta. It was funfilled and joyful last bachelor trip to cherish forever. Thanks to Jini, Ghajini, Kar, Raghav, Akb, Akshay and Sap murthy for making such wonderful memories.
- Then Got busy with Marriage shopping, marriage preparations. Visited Kanchipuram for the first time for marriage saree shopping.
- Then comes pre-wedding photoshoot. I never go for professionals. I want to explore the possibilities always. Thanks to Jini, Kar, Madhu and Vinayaka for the wonderful clicks. Special Thanks to Jini for arranging lunch at his home during photoshoot and also to Kar for his time and CAR :D
#NOV/DEC:
- After struggling for two months in the heavy rains for bengaluru for searching home finally found one of the beautiful and most satisfied home "Anugruha". Things will change as perspectives/responsibilities will change before and after marriage, one of the biggest challenge was to move from favorite area where i spent 7 years from the beginning to somewhere else. To Find Somewhere else was again Tough! But Happiness is when "SomewhereElse" results in more comfortable than what you where looking for.
"Reality is always inversly proportional to your Imagination/Expectation"
- Then finally comes the biggest event of my LIfe :- "Anubandha". I really thank to one and everyone from the bottom of my heart for helping and being with me from the start to an End of my Marriage Journey.
To my parents and my sisters(Family), I am grateful forever for whatever I am being today. They are the reason for my success and achievements. Without them I would be nothing. I pray god to keep us attached and connected lovingly to last forever. It was unfortunate to miss my 3rd sister during my wedding but my BIL helped her to catch the updates online always during marriage time. ;)
Real situations make us realize the worth of people around us. I never chose to have plenty around me, just one who is REAL with me is enough! Such ONE are many which make me feel wonderful when I look back.
It would be mistake if i don't mention them who were in each and every step of my Journey.
Vinayaka Patil, Chandru anna, Sandeep shetty, My roommates and many more who are in my heart always and ofcourse, cannot miss her , my WIFE :)
There is nothing more than saying, "WIFE, a best friend for LIFE". Thank you GOD for giving Pooja to my LIFE. It needs another article to explain everything! ;)
I would say Thank you 2017 for being wonderful for me. You will be always remembered for your good things!
