Wake-up Calls

About the Book

I have tried to recall all the events happen in my life in Ten years span. Some of the events I call it ‘Wake-up Calls’ because those calls were an indication, a gesture , a warning to change the path I was following with the blinkers on my eyes. Call after call to wake me and to put me on the right path. First call was near miss accident where I was part of it. Second call was when my elder brother died in car accident and four weeks later my mother passed away. The third call where three D’s had an accident, Devdutt, Damian & Domanic. Usually everybody gets three warnings but I did get the forth and final warning when I had to ‘Wake-up’.
