@mauve: Take heart and give it time. Everything looks better a few months – or years – later. The world hasn’t yet picked itself up out of the economic slump so if that is one of the major causes of your stress, rest assured you aren’t alone. How about using the time instead, to look back, reflect on what has happened, address any repressed issues? That’s the best way to start the healing process. I wish you all the very best of luck.

hi ..i chanced upon ur blog today and all i want to say is d above post made me overwhelmingly sad and hopeful.
the post about heartbreaking relationship,perfect plan going awry…..sensible plans delayed,economy crashing…well,it was as if i was reading the story of my own life..the only difference is it happened to me same time last year and while the days of crying are behind,yet i am unable to find a way back into wat my life used to be:(
thanx for the post ideasmithy ,i wish i find the sense of happiness, sensibility, strength and practicality which you retained but i lost.

@ Rashmi: Thank you very much. I’m not sure you should be admiring me, some of those desicions were by default, some were out of fear and in a lot of cases, there wasn’t a desicion to be made, just followed. I hope you’ll comment again.

I loved these three entries of yours.I can so relate to them.Sometimes makes me wonder about those things that we think "happens only to me" happens to so many others.I admire you for all those decisions,i know how difficult it must have been as i am facing some of those right now.Liked your style of writing very much

@themadmomma: *Sigh* It's not like I had a choice! Disappointment is a heavy burden to carry. But I guess the grass is always greener on the other side.

@ Ms.Taggart: Never too early to look back, that's what I say! And I'm a Cancerian.

going according to plan is rather overrated. my life seems to be according to plan you know. i didnt plan it that way – but it ended up taking that shape. married by 24, two kids by 27, back at work by 30 – and yet – there are a zillion little hitches along the way that make you wonder what made u think this was the ideal plan..

i think you're doing a fantastic job….of living without a guideline

You sure do have a captivating audience..
I was thinking on these lines myself.. I am going to do a similar review when I turn 30. Actually I might write one now itself..
Btw, you are Arien too? If so, *same pinch*
