Dilemma

Today is the last day in my present organisation. I am feeling so strange. In my career of 3 years I have already shifted 2 companies and joining the third. I am feeling strange.. really strange. My Dad worked in the same orginisation for the 35 years and retired from there. He must never have thought of leaving his Orgnisation even once in his time while working. Am I running after money? No I dont think so. Because more or less you get the same amount wherever you are working for the same experience level. I sometimes think how will be my retirement days. I am working in Software Industry and I have not yet seen anybody who has retired from this industry. Its only around 20 years old industry in India. And nobody has faced the retirement age I think. How will be my or precisely our retirement days. Are not we racing towards a somekind of Uncertainity..I dont know where I will from 5 years from now. Why are in such a state of mind. why nothing is certain. Somewhere I heard change is the part of life. Am I following it blindly and trying to bring in change. I am not confused. I know I am doing it for career advcancement. But somehow I cannot write down somewhere that five years down the line I will be..The dilemma of our time?
I remeber the college days when I was doing my engineering. Those were the days when everyday was filled with new dreams, new hopes. Where have gone all the friends. I remember we all promised that we will meet again. We said that the world is round so it is certain that we will meet each other no matter what happen. Five years have gone by I have not met them. Its so strange, the guy who was my roomate I dont know where he is now. A few days back I got to know from a friend about another friend about his engagement and impending marriage. That guy was very good friend of mine. And I remeber how we used to joke about each others wives..and now somebody is going to go to the altar with somebody without even each others knowledge. Somebody may say thta it is my fault I am not trying to keep in touch..But I know thats not true. I try to get in touch with others whenever I can or whenever I get their contact details..But everybody is busy.
Why are we so busy? Are we going to invent something? No we are not we are busy in our mundane work and I think we are happy with our feeling that we are busy. :-) May be...........
