Flashback to why I am here...

I was in the so called world of I.T. for around 2.5 yrs...lived quite a comfortable life like many other I.T. people...but somewhere I always felt this hollowness inside...something that kept asking me why was I where I was and was I really happy with what I was going? The designation of a Team Leader did make me feel proud...They say if you give your 100% to any job you enjoy it...but for me, inspite of giving my 100% the satisfaction rarely touched my heart...at times I felt trapped at work...it was an endless rat race that was leading nowhere...and as if God heard and saw my restlessness that I happened to see the "Teach for India" add in the newspaper...and the moment I saw its website (www.teachforindia.org) I knew I wanted to be a part of the movement...I applied immediately along with 4000 other applicants...I was surprised to know there were 4000 other young professionals who wanted to change the way India looks, who wanted to do something for educating the underprivileged...I was amongst the fortunate 150(3.75%) people who made it to TFI...my joy knew no bounds when I got an email that I was selected...I resigned from my job the very next hour that I saw this email which gave me a sky, which gave me wings to fly, which made me feel it was time that i soared high...
