I was born on the 30th of December 1976 in the island of Carnicobar, a part of Andaman & Nicobar. Carnicobar is also known in short as Carnic island. I was named after the island. Growing up, once in a while I pull out the album and browse through the black and white photographs of my childhood days...by the beach etc. Grew up hearing its a great place. Aspired to be there with my parents and brother on my 25th birthday! The day is long gone but am yet to realise my aspiration.
Being a son of a sportsman I took to basketball from I think when I was 3. Grew up learning. As I read and saw on TV really tall players I wished...aspired to be 6 ft 6 inches!!! Managed to barely 6...
My brother would always ape performers like Michael Jackson and apna Mithun. Once during a rehearsal I stood next to him with a badminton racket pretending to be a guitarist. Aspiration to learn one grew. Ran away from a class during my college days due to the pace of teaching. A few years later bought a guitar hoping to pick up basics on my own. Today the guitar lies in a corner of my home...Drums was another musical instrument I took to given my ambidexterity. Let see...
Wanted to do an MBA, be in the world of advertising and aspired to marry the girl I liked, I loved....Succeeded in all three!
When in advertising wanted to have a business of my own one day, later shifting track I prepared a brand and got excited too because as it works in mind the business has the potential to be a big success. Aspire to see it happen one day...Soon....
Dreamt of having my own home...Achieved it faster than I imagined. Was the most happiest day of my life. Of course after the day I married the girl I loved....
Today, when I look back... I succeeded in some...I didn't in some others. And I aspire for some more. Aspirations...

That is life..right !! You succeed in some. Slip in some. And all the same, learn from all !!
But thankfully, you seem to have succeeded in the things that mattered !!
Come on, you can live without a Mithun dance step !
