The young man completed his graduation and got into a job of hectic work schedules. He was in high spirits..
“My job is quite interesting and inspiring. And my take home pay stands at.... I can do wonders at the back of this earning. I decided to write my daily Diary of Events. That way I will be alert. My Manager is a nice guy. Last time I personally met him and he treated me….”
All the time, a beautiful Diary was in his hand!
A few years passed. Unfortunately, the timely promotion was delayed. And the attitude too quickly changed..

A few years passed. Unfortunately, the timely promotion was delayed. And the attitude too quickly changed..
“This routine is boring. The Manger, now days is charging me unnecessarily for no fault of mine. I can't relax even a minute here. Soon I have to change the job or do something on my own. Even my favorite TV program ended yesterday. Next week, we decided to go on vacation to the Picturesque Spot which I unnecessarily postponed all these days thinking that leave from work may affect....”
And the Diary was collecting dust!
To every one's surprise, he announced on a day about a good Offer he got in another Company based on his experience and was straight away given the Role of the Manager. A big Role in the Dept! On the day of his joining the new Company, the newness brought an immediate change in his talk..

“I am posted as In-Charge of a very good Team of Engineers. This is great! I think I have now the best in life. The targets are too tight but they keep all of us on our toes. A good Spirit.. I love my Company! I forgot, I should tell all my people to write their daily Diary of....”
Soon a brand new Diary was in his hand!
Some more years passed. Again, there was no escape from routine and the next promotion was years away.. The talk too was different..

“Yeah! I am stuck to this routine and with this Company. I've so many Offers around but leaving the Company at this stage has my own personal problems. See you cannot leave it but if you get into it seriously, it eats out your 24 hrs and sometimes demands 25 hrs/ day.You should be smart here and get off with nice excuses. After all personal life is more important!”
The old Diary on his table was not changed for a long time!
After 2 years, he was made the HOD by default as the continuing Boss retired but with a good jump in salary…. He was back with all pride....“Whatever the Past may be, I love this…. See as Head of the Dept., you can do many things in your Company…. Earlier I was handicapped everywhere…. And now, I have that Power…. I decided to chalk out the best Program for my Dept…. I don’t allow any delinquency any where anytime…. My Mangers on duty should all the time have their latest Diaries in their hands….”
A few Diaries seemed neatly arranged on one side of his table!
Years passed…. That was the end of his Career as many similar Companies in the field all of a sudden changed the Promotion Rules making it mandatory to have a min experience in the earlier Grade for the next Level which the gentleman …. Neither he could change his job.... All drive had gone at one stroke…. “All these works will be with us forever…. We too need them else what to do with our time? At the same time, we should not run at this age for small praise or small benefit…. Let this go on as usual but something different has to be done now! All these days that part was not touched…. Heard that certain Discourses were arranged at…. And the Great Man is…. It is time to relax and become more Devotional and Philosophical….”
All Diaries slowly were moved to a shelf behind except a single torn One for daily routine!
