It took me 28 years and one late night stint in the very quiet library.
It took me so many questions and so much introspection and retrospection.
It took me a lifetime of trying to keep my head above the water.
Until a few minutes ago - I was under the illusion that I was a member of "Generation X" .
That I was meant to be Xtremely sure, Xact and a Xtra achiever of sorts.
But according to my very astute and amazing Marketing Management Text book - Thanks to Kotler and Keller - Ive solved what might be the biggest mystery of my time.
Apparently - everyone who is born 1978 and onwards is not a part of the elite Gen X but infact belongs to the distinct Generation Y.
Which roughly in the all encompassing context of my life = Generation Why ?
So basically I inherited all the desperate answer seeking, the restlessness and the self inquisitions.
All the time that I spent resisting - could have been spent elsewhere.
So I guess my cross to carry is infact a big question mark.
And no - even SRK wouldnt be delighted with the number of sawaals I currently have in my life.
I guess I will have to keep throwing out my "Why's " to the cosmos and take solace in the fact that in the interim as I walk the tight- rope that this year is turning out to be - even though there may not be any answers , theres definately some darn good questions.
Audience Poll anyone ?
