Meeting Sandeep PR has been a revelation. Just like a breath of fresh air. My saga of meeting and making at least one great friend (apart from my loves) everyplace I work continues.
I met Sajay at Bhavan’s College; Krishnadas at Vartak Polytechnic; Sunill at Maximize; Sachin at compassbox.com (he was there even at TIS); Gary at Lionbridge; Jeba at Brainvisa; Laxmi at Sify; and Gopu at Expertus. Gopu left Expertus for good.
Then, I met Sandeep: a wandering Business Development Manager. He is one of a kind. He is a seeker. He loves Thiruvannamalai. I love his love for theatre, ashrams, Zen, Buddhism, reading, writing, traveling, yoga, morning walks (no morning walks and yoga for me yet), poetry, and movies.
At 24, he is way ahead of his times. He is idealistic, and wants to change the world. He is a classical dreamer like me. But unlike me, he is a doer too.
Sandeep and I talk a lot in the cafeteria: books, women, my past, his past. All through, one thing stands out about him: he is a man of conscience.
Today, he is somebody to watch out for. Tomorrow, he will be somebody.
