Thoughs About God

A month ago, I felt as though I would never rise up. I was duped, cheated and was hit by treachery. Vicky, one of my dear friends, advised me that the problem looks like a mountain at the moment but very soon it will vanish. I never cry but when he came to pick me up, I burst out as I could clearly then differentiate between true friends and people who just proclaim that they are ‘family’.

Its vanished now. We look back and occasionally laugh at what happened. I don’t regret any of it and think that it has just made me wiser. I made a new friend, I moved out of Chennai to a better place, learning more than I was and started running again. I turned religious and when I am hit with problems, I look for answers outside running.

There will surely be times when things go completely wrong and running does not come to your rescue because of injuries and such. Drinking beer when you are already depressed makes you feel sad and grumpy. When there is nothing wrong at your end, the simplest solutions is look at God and tell him that he is not being fair. For sure, he will listen. If I were go back to the deep dark dungeon again one thing I would ask him is to at least keep me running.
