Do you often recall and reflect upon a conversation you had with someone, in which you shared and discussed about things that you really cared about and enjoyed ? A conversation which got you so involved that you didn't realise how time flew by? One of my most memorable conversations was in my professional capacity, with someone I had great amount of regard and respect for. We shared and discussed about his dream and aspirations of setting up his new venture,how he was going about it and in what way a visual identity for his venture could be created with the help of "gifted children". He has got to where he wanted to and much more. Everytime that I hear about this organisation , I fondly recall and cherish those special moments.

Alok This kind of conversation can change one’s outlook altogether. In good, enlightening company we can re discover ourselves. We learn to think and rethink and emerge as a better person. That’s the beauty of experience, I guess. And to add to it the dream to channelise this experience for a greater cause is what makes life so beautiful. I guess all is not that bleak and Kudos to those associations, those people who are living larger than life in the true sense of the term. [i]Have a great life ahead. Thanks for your positive perspective.[/i]

You are so right Mimpi. Conversation's such as these leave a lasting impression on one and we so often draw inspiration from them. It was this person's dream to be able to take up his new venture and do something for a greater cause. The ideas,the planning the implentation and now the final outcome..More than what I could visualise then. What I learn ,I would to share as you always do.

I've gained so much as well. Self confidence amongst the top of the list is something which you have helped me regain and I'm extremely grateful for that.

Hey alok, Yes i do have such conversations with my dad who is the motivator for me. My dad has travelled so much in his life that his experiance is invaluable, i always take his suggestions to move ahead in life. In my kind of business ( construction line ) i meet people from all walks of life. Everyday i learn something new from them. Everyday its a new experiance. I remember i had to face a conference in Thailand. It was with the board of directors of difeerant companies from all over the world. I was 18 that time and obviously nervous. I was asked to decscibe a project with the help of our engineers and it was something i cant forget in life. They all clapped when we finished and that gave me so much confidence. Cheers, Tutul

There are times when we get to meet people who are really very charismatic and can serve as inspiration. Several years back I met somebody who was just that. I got to meet him just three times and yet he created such an impact because of the words that he would utter. Very inspiring and I really felt bad when I was informed that he passed away just days before we were supposed to meet again to formulate another project. He was my mentor.

Certainly agree with you my friend. There are people who always leave a deep impression on us with their thoughts and charishma. I'm sorry to hear that you no longer have him to inspire you with his thoughts, however I'm sure those memories will remain cherished for a long time to come. Thanks for sharing this.
