New Year 2010, I got a call from a place, where I had interviewed. I decided to sit back at home rather than taking up any jobs. The offers that I got were very low salary wise. However I didn’t want something with an MNC as they had larger notice periods. Now what to do for these 6 months since I had left my job? So I decided to take up a stop gap arrangement type of Job. However this process was going to take 5-6 Months. Had I been in the USA, I would have to fly back to get a lot of paperwork that was needed to get an immigration visa (police reports/Birth certificates etc). After my mom reached the USA, my immigration paperwork came through. As luck would have it, I was about to buy my tickets something or the other kept delaying it. My mom visited India in October that year and I was to fly back with her, but I could not because of some reason or the other. In my plans to move, I left my Job in September and started winding up to be with my Parents, as my grandmother, who was my constant support was a big void that was created. I left my job thinking I will move to the USA permanently (Meaning will stay for 6 Months and come back). I used to stay with my extended family and grandparents. She was a constant support for me in my Parent’s absence in India. After I returned to India that year, I was close to losing my grandmother. We bought a house, which was again Baba’s blessing. That year in 2009, I was with my family for 3 months. My parents were settled in the USA and I used to visit them from India.

I visited Shirdi in November 2008 for the first time. I came Sai’s sharan as they say in June 2008. It looks like that test won’t end anytime soon. it is so hard to write how beautifully my life has been blessed, except for those two things that I have been waiting forever, almost 5 years. It tells you how much God does for you and you forget after initially being thankful for it.I Moved to the USA in 2010. I have this habit of writing my prayers in a Prayer book. He took in His care and then there was no looking back. There are many that I can write here and the list will never end. Anonymous Devotee from USA says: I have been contemplating writing an experience for a very long time.
