I was ,perhaps , born lucky. Einstein told in his early writing that best job for a dreamer or happy life was to get a job , just to earn one's living with enough time to spend for his hobby or higher dreams. ,,,,Well maybe, I was also shaped for it. In 1956 when I was selected as a Gazetted officer(medical) , I had no work to do but to receive my cheque. And nor even any office dpace . I was to visit DELHI Villages for Health Guidance and , happily ,neither the Ambulence nor the medical assistants e.g Compounder,Dresser ,Cleaner ;or not even Driver was selected (for next six months).So I attended my post at 15, Alipore road, DHS ,Delhi Adm.(MCD not yet formed ).I enjoyed my leisure - hours under a tree on roadside and had all the time to look up and scan the sky with wild dreamy thought.
I could, then ,play Table tennis ,not so bad , and whenever the Deputy Director could find me out , I had to play table tennis with him ,at lunch time. And that is how , as I later read, Einsteins observation was proved true, even for me.
Thus God always helped me to be an effective 'Escapist' but in another sense I had to work more hours for my pleasure and only required hours for my Job. Even I got my M.D gegree while working in a Dispensary(E.S,I scheme).
So it was God's sanction and not my fault.
