All it takes is a second...

Off late, I have been cycling and covering long distance on weekends.. I cycle upto office, I cycle day and night... Its a long time wait, and boy the feeling is incredible.
I still clearly remember the first day when I took my grandpa cycle, I was a kid and my favorite grandpa was reluctant in giving me his beloved cycle... not cause he was in love with her... (I consider most of the things feminine - not cause of there limitations but because they are desirable... :)

Coming back to that day "after long wait I got the chance and "believe me you" in first go - I was cycling without any support from behind or from any corner (kudos to the guy - though I don't clearly remember his name, gave me a reason to cry, and then confidence to smile :)... forever!!!

In school I always looked at people who drove bikes... in college I was looking after cars... and boy actual when the time came, I went back to bicycle.

I drove around 3k Kms on Bulltet in 17 days (ladhak tour)... First car I maneuvered was Toyota - tursel back in 9 standard at Saudi - Riyadh industrial area. However, today memories of past don't inspire me to run behind same thing... NOT that I have reached point of saturation... but today, the pointers of happiness - have changed!

For now, I know one thing "It takes a second to get onto bike (cycle), rest anyways falls in place" :)

Siddharth

The transition

The other day I was having a ball, after long long time I was enjoying the game... and was getting back into typical Siddharth mode: no matter where you are? against whom you are? play as if world is seeing you, with lot of passion, show some grit, emotions, little bit of aggression, total commitment and above all style!

All thing in head were dead right, could see the same 20years old Siddharth running, laughing, enjoying the game and suddenly the ball passed through.... My mind had responded but either the signal from brain reached late (or I don't know) my body couldn't respond to situation in same fashion.

They say with growing age you're movements/reflexes slow down.
Infact some days back God came in my dream and said welcome in 30's Siddharth :)

Now I don't know, weather God coming in my dream was a turning point? or is he making me realize the transition in runtime...

Whatever thank you God for 30wonderful years!
