"बाकी सब ठीक है।
2025 — As It Was Lived..!!!
The year began with hope; And it's ending on the same note.
"बाकी सब ठीक है।
Some took me for granted some granted their trust in me; I accept both with regret and gratitude...
Invested my time, efforts and whatever finances could manage hoping it doesn't go in vain.
"बाकी सब ठीक है।
There were phases of unexpected spending just to keep things moving.
At times, expecting support from family and not receiving it breaks you down completely.
Nevertheless; Different paths, different perspectives each leading to a different world.
I should literally learn to accept this sad reality.
"बाकी सब ठीक है।
Family-Friends and relatives’ gatherings/functions-festivals revealed real faces and uncomfortable truths. Relationships fade when we aren't transparent, become careless and fail to acknowledge-value each other’s presence.
If one doesn't want to it's out of the question.
“बाकी सब ठीक है।
When trust was broken beyond repair, I made a bold decision.
I chose the legal path not for revenge,
but to draw a boundary and protect self-respect.
I remain hopeful of recovering what was lost.
“बाकी सब ठीक है।
A local excursion to Empress Botanical Garden, Sant Shri Tukaram Maharaj Temple, Prati Shirdi, Ramdara Mandir, Science Museum, Meher Retreat, and Kundmala Bridge was thoroughly enjoyed—simple moments of peace and togetherness.
Only later did we realise what a close call it was..!!! We had been there just 24 hours before the bridge collapsed.
The incident was all over the news later, and even now it gives a spine-chilling feeling.
भगवन् कृपा...
“बाकी सब ठीक है।”
Typhoid tested my willpower.
Life tested it further through spouse's accident multiple times; Twice at the beginning of the year and again recently at the end.
There were moments we genuinely questioned whether we are cursed or deserved such trials..???
Still, managed to stand solid and faced whatever came our way.
"बाकी सब ठीक है।
Indian Navy Marathon Delhi
Bombay Sappers Pune
Armed Forces Medical College Marathon Pune
Indian Air Force Marathon Delhi
Physical endurance became my anchor.
I participated in four marathons 21-10K respectively and completed each one within cutoff time across Delhi and Pune this year; Not for recognition but as a reminder that discipline holds you steady when life shakes.
"बाकी सब ठीक है।
Last but not least the service which remained sacred.
Got an opportunity to attend ARMY MELA and first ever in history the ARMY DAY PARADE & GAURAV GATHA organised by BEG & C (Bombay Engineering Group & Centre) aka Bombay Sappers, Paid tribute to our real heroes at NATIONAL WAR MEMORIAL on KARGIL VIJAY DIWAS and also donated blood at AFMC Pune; Some duties are meant to be cherished...
my darling daughter's karate belt promotion level-2 ceremony and an official invite to attend her annual day function were moments of immense pride. To see her performing took me straight to my own school days. A proud parent indeed.
Well, I learned that some people are extremely cautious about expressing, reacting, or offering support socially especially when it comes through you, as if it might cost or hamper their lifestyle.
And I am still trying to learn to be a little selfish—not my nature, but as necessity.
The most awaited step ahead to upgrade-validate my professional skills for international opportunities and focus only on financial stability, business development, keeping away from negativity and what truly matters for mental satisfaction and happiness.
The face-off with pros and cons was worth experiencing as it taught do's and don'ts of life.
Hmm; "बाकी तो सब ठीक ही रहा २०२५; Feeling Hopeful 2026...
Yours Faithfully; Mukul aka कर्मकवी...

P.S. The quote "बाकी सब ठीक है" is inspired from the movie #Border where the soldier reads a letter from his wife.
