I am supposedly on a Study Leave these days and it was a much needed leave after really stressful last few months. I think it was a quote from some movie where it said that if you are working hard and your family life starts getting affected then you are doing well work-wise. It was a good lesson to learn and had decided not do so well work-wise that your family life gets affected.
See, one has to make decisions on what one REALLY wants from life. The best solution is to be at a balance and if a tilt is required then be it at the family side rather than work side. I am sure people will have various opinions on the same but it was only in these last few days being completely home at work did I realize what I have been missing all this while.
My daughter's grown-up antics and my wife's loving house workaholic-ism was too less appreciated when I was spending more time at work than at home. I guess that is why breaks are important in the year so that one can get back to the good things in life.
I do want to be the best at my work but without a compromise being the best at Home as well. That is what is going to last longer and stay with me till the end.
I am blessed to have a great family, my wife & kid, I wouldn't trade that for anything. These last few days have been great to say the least and its just about being home and seeing things running like clockwork around me and being thankful to God.
There is no better feeling in this world than the warmth of the hug of your child and rather than experiencing it only once everyday on a work day when I come home, I can get it unlimited times whenever I want for the time being. I am making it all count.
