I love running

Yes I've fallen in love.. Unconditional love.. 

I love running.. Running is like meditation to me.. It's time devoted completely for me, where you get to talk to your inner self, when there are those self realizations.. Running is  like dope.. Makes me go high, super high..

Running helps me realize that deep down there's a sportsman in me, someone who's not going to give up, the 'never, ever give up' attitude gets revived again.. The thoughts that you're going to do all you can to set things right.. The fighting spirits echoes loud and strong.. You realize how lucky you are to have whatever you have. Blessed I am to have people like Gautam, Ashish and many other wonderful champs, this space-time continuum has introduced me to, the ones who would stand by me whatever happens and patiently bear all the bull crap 'yeh-woh, aise-waise' talk that I do :P.. 

When I run, poetry starts making sense:

पिघले  नीलम सा बहता  हुआ येह समा
नीली, नीली सी खामोशियाँ
ना कहीं है ज़मीन, ना कहीं आसमान
सरसराती हुई टहनियाँ , पत्तियाँ,
कह रहीं हैं , की बस एक तुम हो यहां
सिर्फ़ मैं हूं,
मेरी साँसे हैं, मैं और मेरी धड़कनें
ऐसी गहराईयाँ , ऐसी तनहाईयाँ,
और मैं, सिर्फ मैं ,
अपने होने पे मुझे यकीन हो गया.

I feel alive when I run and that is what matters, that is what makes me fall in love over and over again.. :)
