Random universe related thoughts

Universe is boundless, vast, has no end and no beginning. For universe, our planet earth is a tiny minuscule planet. Whatever we may think that we know about universe is still 1/million times of what the universe may actually comprise of. Every theory may fail at those large distances. For instance, the distance between two galaxies is in the ranges of a million light years.  A light year is the distance traveled by the light in one year. Light is so fast that it can cover 3 lakh kilometers in a second. Till the time we hadn't discovered radio, communication satellites and airplanes, even earth used to look like a big giant planet. It used to take months and year to travel from one corner of earth to the other. But now with the advent of technology, world has become a global village.

Mid-Career Crisis

Where am I heading?? Am I able to fulfil life expectations with my present job?? ( Potential vs Opportunity ) available in the job market??

With those gaps already existing and unknown, it is failure what we get when we target something which we thought we can do. Tried and tested over time and focused approach towards your strengths and reworking  on them and aligning them with the target lead us to a more future proof individual.
