So, my 2013 went with me creating ashritax.in. ashritax.in is a website about quantitative aptitude problem solving automation. The software engine creates questions and you get to solve them. You have to choose one option out of the four options presented to you. It was – I have to say myself only – spark of a genius.
I was in the tea shop drinking tea like I always do. Suddenly that idea came to me, that we can automate even maths questions of CAT level also. I created the website and got about 22000 hits. They said, facemash had about 2200 hits in 4 hours, but I got 22000 hits in a year. It is alright I consoled myself. I became sick with jaundice in 2014. I was sick for about three years. In 2016, I created a website called lovebyte.co.in.
It is a website which had lyrics of few tamil songs. I was updating lyrics of a single song everyday. I took it as my work life and it was nice. In my work life in a company called Qwest, I was a hard worker. I left from home every morning by 820, reached office by 845… worked there from 9 to 6. I mainly went to office to drink coffee.
I used to complete almost all the work I had in a day from 9 to 915. I plan my work for the day in that time period itself. Then I used to go for drinking tea. Around 11, I would have finished my work and all that I had was mailing. I wrote song lyrics in lovebyte website with all these things in mind. I wanted to be a success in life. I worked hard and hard and hard. There was a blunder I was committing during this time.
The blunder was smoking. I don’t want to go into the details because getting into the details would make one think about doing it. The quote that made me stop smoking is a simple one. Some one told me – it is a bad habit.
That’s all. We are good people and we should not be having bad habits. Since it was simple, it was easy for me to quit smoking. I was in another rehab for 3 months. Even after coming from rehab where I got beaten with sticks, I didn’t quit smoking. I was able to be without it for 13 days. But on the 14th day, morning I smoked. We learn things slowly in life. I don’t want to commit the blunder anymore.
Life was torturous sometimes. It was the most torturous to me in the year 2019. I was in a hospital and my mother and father passed away in the same year. In 2020, I became slightly okay but the world was suffering from corona. Corona is a pandemic that affected the entire world.
It spawned somewhere in China, but lots of people, including – vivek, one of favourite comedians also passed away because of Corona. We Indians, wore masks for about three years – 2020,2021 and 2022. Our breath itself became different.
Now, in 2021, I have lost my interest in living itself. Nothing bad happened but I slightly believe that I have reached the ends of frustration.
I went to a company and waited for about six hours for the manager to come.
