Karma has brought me to RIM

Life has always been unpredictable for many of us. We can not say what will happen the next. Some say and believe that our future depends on our previous deeds. Some argue that it purely depends upon one's mindset to make our own future. But I feel it purely depends upon our Karma. All the sentient beings follow their own cycles in the circle of individual Karma. 

I had so much hope and expectations to be an engineer or a lawyer when I was in my higher secondary school. However, my class twelve examination has not favored me an opportunity for acquiring an Ex-country scholarship. Really upset and my dreams has got torn apart. Nevertheless, I kept trying, I applied for In-country scholarship and got an opportunity to study in Royal Thimphu College.

After spending three years of life there in Royal Thimphu College, I am now in Royal Institute of Management pursuing Post Graduate Diploma in Public Administration. I say the journey of my life to be Karmic because Karma has brought me here in RIM. The course here seems totally irrelevant to my degree major- Bachelor in Computer Applications. I am thoroughly worried that I may not be able to live up to the hope and expectations that Royal Civil Service Commission, Royal Government of Bhutan and my relatives have bestowed upon me. 

However with the help of the well experienced lecturers and very intellectually grown up friends, I will strive myself to live up to everyone's expectations. I will not forget my life philosophy that is " to be the best and always strive for that only. Moreover,  to help others in my own small ways so that i may be important and remembered in the little ways." The eight days of orientations here in RIM is really giving me an insight of the institute and the course structure. The new academic policy which is equivalent to the other world universities will also be experienced by the us, I feel really fortunate for that too.

Although the facilities here in RIM seem quite inferior to my previous college facilities, however I will not compromise my hard work in my primary objective. I promise to my King, Country and people of Bhutan that I will work very hard in the institute and I will be back after a year to serve with utmost loyalty and dedications.
