Running
Tuesday, May 28, 2013 • 12:14 AM • 0 comments Running calms me. Running allows me to just keep moving on and on. My mind could be filled with fleeting thoughts of randomness and I'll still be running and I'll still be on track. It doesn't matter if I'm fast or slow, I'm moving on and that is all that matters to me. So when people say they like running in new places, for me, new places fluster me. I like familiarity. I like just running aimlessly yet I know where I am and I won't be lost. I like the ideas that come flooding into my head as I run. Sometimes I'm so filled with anger, I just want to tire myself out to feel too tired to feel anything at all. However, I do not reject new places. I love exploring, just that unlike running in familiar places where I can shut myself up and just run on and on while my brain does the wandering; when in new territories, my eyes wander all over to take in the new sights, my ears to take in new sounds and my nose to take in new scents and I tend to run abit slower because running becomes secondary to the joy for and curiosity towards the wonderful new environment. It's also less personal time for myself to reflect on the day's events and to generate new ideas and to mull over issues.I like running. But my knees and my back do not agree with me. I'm unhappy. I seemed to have helped with all the write-ups so far while you have appeared to be more concerned with the holiday than the amount of paper work needed to be done. So why do i feel that you blamed me for not being to go for some of the activities? I would have thought of blaming you but I didn't. Honestly, I thought something like this might've happened but I had no other choices. :( I would like to quit and do whatever I want for awhile. I'm not sure if I am financially capable of that though. :( Time waits for no one. I vividly remember this on the cover of the foolscap pad that mum used to buy for us when we were young. How true, indeed. And now talk about Time. Time is one of the greatest forces of all...time. It is the silent killer of all feelings, the perfect ingredient for luck and success and the best teacher for every one of us. Time heals all wounds, erodes all feelings and takes some pain away. No, I won't say completely but definitely most of it. Perfect timing, people always say. Indeed, to do the right, or even wrong, thing at the right time almost guarantees you success. Unfortunately, such perfect timings, do not come more than once or twice. Time teaches us lessons through the experiences we have gone through every living seconds, minutes, hours, days. We may or may not learn from the lessons but we definitely gain experiences. I subscribe very much that time dulls feelings and memories and that right timing is crucial in most situations. I'm also very sure that everyone of us has learnt a thing or two from the times we have had through our lives thus far. If you know me well, I'm a random person. As much as I prefer familiarity, I hate mundane-ness. I like to move on, try new things, explore and be happy. So time is important to me and time passes by even more quickly for someone like me. Recently, someone made me realised timing is really important and that with time, things change and I hope he learnt something this time. Noone likes to play second fiddle. Everyone wants to be treasured. And so like Travis sings... I'm feeling like a driftwood but I don't want to drift anymore. I want to reach my shore. So where's the shore? Land Ahoy! God bless.
