Revisiting the road….Lessons from roaming the streets!



The other day irritated at the present love of my life (alas it is not a human!!) being so out of my reach, I decided to hit the road again…Watching the grey matter swirl past I looked up to see the familiar path of unending greyness…
Zooming through I saw it…My way in life was not different…I always know where a particular course of action will take me…What will I attain when I do it. The same way when I set forth on the road I know where the road will take me too.

If I fail in life I calmly say that the road ahead is too bumpy and that may be I am not meant for it or rather now that I’ve matured I’ve decided to change my destination. As I moved from telankhadi to the graveyard(just driving by!!) I realised the road was the same everywhere…may be a bump here or there was different but essentially it was the same…No matter how I drove the road would still be tough if I fell down and changed course it would still be the same…It would not show me any mercy just because I had driven successfully this far or because I had just suffered a fall few days ago…It all came down to how I drove on the road…And then I realised the similarity…when I fail in life and change course or whatever it’s the same and the only reason ‘ve not figured the solutions is because I have been just trying to solve a maths equation using the principals of English!

Zooming through I saw a group of my ex-friends celebrating….It struck me odd that some time ago I was there and now I wasn’t…suddenly a hotshot skidded in front of me and I just managed to hang on..the road had spoken again…in life you need everything in balance…u loose sight of something once..be hard to get your hands on it again…
Zooming through walkers zone I saw a sweet couple laughing and enjoying their evening probably having bunked their tuitions! As I zoomed through cursing my morals and decisions that had led me to zooming all alone in this pleasant weather…I saw an old couple sitting and enjoying a hearty laugh… and even further ahead saw a father taking his daughter to the park…seeing this I thought may be happiness is ageless and is related more to the people than relationships or vice-versa?

Zooming along I saw a couple of kids racing there bikes and for a second I was transported back to my childhood when I used to race…how much life had changed? To be honest it hadn’t I was still racing only now I couldn’t face losses…back then after a loss I would just be eager to hit the track again…the joy of racing was lost!

Checking my watch I figured that it was time for me to head back home…pondering over these things I headed back home and as I parked my bike I figured no matter what the race was for and who won at the end of it everyone heads back home for we can stay without the wins and losses but what if there was no home or love!?

(Forgive the grammar my word-07 is giving problems!!)
