How does it feel to be free ? I will let you know soon.
I just got released from my current assignment after 2 years of non-stop work. Lots have happened in the last two years but something that has just remained constant is my WORK. Every day, for 2 years now, i worked.
The longest Roller-Coaster ride i've ever been in. Tears, smiles, shocks, surprises, appraisals,awards...
And now, its all over. The baby that i nurtured for 2 years ,has been handed over to someone else. I have to say, i am experiencing something that people usually call "mixed-emotions". I was waiting until my wedding day to experience one of these but funnily enough, work has taken a lead this time. I am certainly not a work-o-holic. But somehow i feel possessive of the way i dealt with this project. In the begining, it was evil, i tell you. In modern english, i would call it an horcrux that i unabashedly wore around myself for two full years. I failed, i faultered, i flawed, i hurt myself but i survived.
I was rewarded for my work. I was appreciated, i received the most coveted titles. Yet, the most happiness that i got was when everytime i saw the tiny-tot take baby steps and make it into the bigger world. OK. I am talking about the production/live deployment of the deliverables for a change request. OK. In english, project completion.
It was mine all the way, no team, no people. IT was mine and I was proud EVERY time.
If i had to go through the same ride for an other time, would i say yes ? I wouldn't know the answer. I have changed, life changes. But today, as i see the last two years unfold in front of me, i am tempted to be nostalagic, i am sentimental after all. Thanks almighty, for letting me experience something like this, something that almost nearly KILLED me. Thanks for keeping me alive, i depart with a bow. I will miss you. Good Bye CR2.
