Opened Facebook today for some professional reason. Saw a Senior updated Her Promotion to a high Admin level. She looked happy. Flash back started to 2012. She was much senior to me and she left no stone unturned to do wrong with me at career front.

She did alot of my image tarnishing and character maligning among her peers which slowly reached to my friends to and I suffered major setbacks at career and personal fronts. She had been one of the person who contributed to my failures of 1 year. I never answered her back.

I never blamed her or anything. No fight nothing. Finally, today when I saw her growing and reaching to a height which she deserved at professional front I might have felt angry, sad or jealous. To my surprise none of these feelings attacked me today. Instead I smiled seeing her.

I felt happy that despite all the obstacles in her life she reached this point. I looked at her journey and remembered when she could not get research papers and people taunted for her being 30 and unmarried. Many a times I use to ...

"Di, one day you will get what you deserve".

She also had to carry financial load of her family. I don't know why she did wrong to me. May be it was her insecurity or fear of me being ahead of her. She did everything to make me feel low. But may be it was her own desperation to be successful. Now it doesn't matter to me.

All that matters to me is that she got the position she deserved to rule. She reached height for which she spent sleepless nights. She is one of the inspiring lady of my life & I could pen down her name & tell her stories to my kids and students some day. Wishing her a best life.

The fact that I don't feel anything negative for her justifies that once we start accepting challenges life throws at us we being to grow. We feel happy of anyone's success & feel sad for someone's failures. Once you accept yourself & cherish self love nothing affects negatively.
