Hmm... So I pressed it! ...
"Why all of a sudden?"
"Where are you going?"
"What are you going to do next?"
"Are you sure, you want to do this?"
"Rethink a bit .... even if you are 99% sure"
...Some of the statements my boss made this morning after I resigned from ADIC (yep I did it finally). I am going back home and am super happy about it. After 3 years at ADIC, my heart told me that I need to move on .. or rather move back to India - Mumbai.
Past 3 years in Abu Dhabi have been a great learning curve for me - professionally and personally. There are so many ups and downs to talk about, success(es) to cherish, failures to forget and memories to go home with. During my first month in Abu Dhabi, I didn't think I would stay here for 3 years - that too in the same company, same house, same bedroom, same bathroom, same bed (though once in a while I managed to change my squilt set :-) ) and same of probably everything one could think of. Infact, a great indicator of you having lived in a city far too long is when you meet the same taxi driver twice! and I have met more than one of them thrice atleast.
Working with ADIC has been even more exciting. I must be the only employee till date that has worked on all projects within my department. Abu Dhabi is a great place to work in provided you never question the system .. the day you do it; either the system breaks you up or you quit by yourself. Change is the only certainty here; just that the "change" happens every month and probably it gets you to a point where you start thinking - if everything around you is changing and you are not; may be something is wrong with you (e^-rt)
However, I have no regrets being here ... I have learnt a lot and take back a lot with me. Now is the time to look inwards than outwards. Time to re-start..
And yeah .. I don't have answers to any of the questions my boss asked me earlier today!
All I know is that I am going hommmmeeeeee..................
