The Rat Race During the earlier days of my life when I was a Youngman, just out of the university, and was struggling to find a good job to survive in this cruel world, I caught up in the way of life without bothering to know what may happen to me in the long last, in a fiercely competitive struggle for survival in the competitive world of finance and money for having a decent living! Perhaps this was the Rat Race I ran until I could no longer feel interested in running the race! I got tired of making money for the shareholders!! I quit the rat race intentionally to live a simple life with the people I love. I feel so bad now for not being with the dear and near ones during the years I had been running the race for power and wealth! I do not know what my actual status is now. However, I could say to my dear readers that I lament now constantly for the lost years of my life! But one thing I can say is that I am happy to be out of the race! I am no more in endless pursuit.           |

I think that we all can look back at our lives with 20/20 hindsight vision. At the time we did the best we knew how to do.

Maisie, Hello, Thank you so much for your responses posted here on my blog page. You seem to have lived a colorful life which you had chosen from time to time. I am sure that you have enjoyed your work that was no doubt challenging in nature. It is not easy to convince a customer now days when alternatives are always available to him nearby! Maisie, traveling with race horses must be something thrilling and wonderful experience too. Why not share the story with us in future? Have a nice sunday and take care!

You are absolutely correct when you say that at that time we did the best we knew how to do it. Being a young Bank executive, I become so much obsessed with the idea to reach to the top; I entered the rat race willingly forgetting every other things of life! And when I finally reached the goal, I discovered that I have lost the golden years of my life in endless pursuit of something called success! Have a nice time.
