Latest passion - running

The latest journey I have embarked upon is running. It gives a great sense of joy when you slowly jog when the sun has just started it's journey towards the west as there are hardly any vehicles plying on the road, there is a chillness in the air, it is the only time of the day when you feel fresher with every progressive step. An early morning jog is definitely more than a physical exercise. It is a time when your mind is free and all by itself!

I was discussing whether I will be able to complete the 42 km full marathon to an experienced peer and what he said, put all my fears about me completing it to rest. Just concentrate on the next immediate step you have to take and that will take care of the rest. How true!

This holds good not only for running but for life itself. With an air of uncertainty looming large around us, the only thing we have control over is the action next in line and if we put our heart and soul to it and see to it, it is done in the best possible manner, it is all done! What this does amongst the other things is to reduce the burden of future and helps us put our best into the job in hand.
