A very common way of relaxation that most IT crowd seek is either go out for malls n Shopping (the feminine lot) or else shake a leg at the pub , freak out with friends and get drenched in booze on a late night (mostly the masculine lot).This is how the most highly paid and most stressed people de-stress themselves.As i sit in my chair on a warm Saturday afternoon, I hear ppl around speak about going to Forum or lazing around just not knowing what to do on a weekend .I become nostalgic about the Kavaralli hills that i trekked last weekend.An abode of peace and pleasure. I had a seasonal trekker and a group of ppl who accompanied us to the top of the hillock.At an alitude of 1500ft above sea level and winds blowing at nearly 50km/hr on the peak ………Wow that was definitely a moment to rejoice….It requires a sound judgement and equally good startegy in order to go up or down the hill in the fastest and smoothest way possible.At times i wonder, how ‘eyes’, God’s best creation capture a view,wide enough to see the surrounding hills,pass and a neighbouring lake too. Ummm.. I refreshed my geographical knowledge too.On the top stood a small man made temple for ppl to take shelter,if they cant withstand the winds.I ,like a mighty ruler on the earth climbed on the small rock and opened my arms wide to give a rather strong hug to the Wind God:)I felt like a fresh flower just blossomed, once back from the trek,although body aches have started to take over me, but mentally i was charged up and game for more challenges.I suggest my counterparts of the IT industry to be more creative and innovative when it comes to spending a weekend rather than empty their pockets.
