Life- the Biggest Prize Packet one can have.
Even though very late, I certainly have realised the above.
It's certainly wrong to say that this Unique Piece of Gift is Full of only good things.. but keeping in Mind that all those negative things have helped Me evolve as Abhishek Paranjape, I certainly don't regret facing them. What I feel unjust is their timing and the worst thing is that, few times it wasn't in My hands to time them to perfection. It was those times that led Me to mis-time the things which were totally in My hand. Well, I don't mind keeping a negative offset with the world. I have My own thinking, My own capability & My Own people to propel Me not just a step ahead, but 10 steps Ahead & UP.. It's the Up which is More important here..
There is No point in running ahead of the world @ all times. No matter how good a Marathon runner you are, Its important to stay on your feet even after the marathon.
I'm certainly not a good marathon runner, but I surely know how to keep up the same pace, long after the 42.1 kms are over & all others are even out of their reserves...!!!
I still remember that day in December '05 when Our Trek grp had a gruelling time traversing the whole of Torna, the Ridge & Rajgad. Carrying 2 trek sacks for well over 3hrs & supporting a fellow trekker, even down a 70deg Scree patch simultaneously, obviously isn't a Funny thing to do!!!
It was ~2330hrs, when all others were down & out, unable to even Have dinner, that I wandered Out in that 6-7 degrees of cold, winds in excess of 20nauts, wearing just the shortest of pants & a tee. I had cried profusely that time, but even in that grief, i could brave that cold, the energy drain that had sapped even the best & yet stay wide awake beside that talav on Rajgad, unknown to anyone !!!
Scores of times, I've faced lots of flak for carrying excessive amounts of water in My sack & everytime the same people have gone ahead & Used that water when in need.
There is nothing to boast about in this particular event. it just proved to Me lately that, I could rise above the rest when it really mattered. The confidence boost, the events of that day give is immense.. Very suddenly it flashed in front of My eyes, that I've failed to live upto Myself.
I don't know how I lost Myself, just kept on doing the things, unknowingly or unexpectedly, for the sake of not becoming Me..
Finding Myself @ a bigger offset to the advancing world, I sure know that I messed Up but I was even aided in depth for that !!!
This is the Aid I mentioned earlier, which wasn't in My hands.. How in the pretext of timely Aid, I got BANNED AID !!
A small but a Powerful Catapult promises Me to put Me back on pace for this never ending road race!!
Catalytically Aided by the conclusion of My earlier Writeup, I hope to see everybody soon on an even keel !!!
I will this time keep up the pace waiting for the time to hit the Nitro.
Inspite of all this I have lived My life to the fullest. I mean what have I not done??
Studied- got scholarship, Swam- got scholarship, enjoyed college life more than everybody, slept in lectures, faced flak, got appreciated, cleared UPSC exams twice (99th percentile), cleared PABT for fighter pilot, left general merit post-grad to pursue something unusual, working unusually as a Tutor on My own terms, earning ok enough, do treks whenever possible, drink & eat Lavishly to My Stomach's content, bloody even Shit & Fart to My Bum's content!! , roam aimlessly on the bike @ any damn location, made a Respectable name in my college, build Super Computers for Myself & make them run beyond their outstretched limits, roam around Mumbai in search of Anonymous Goods, doing photography @ will, enjoy the nature as it's meant to be enjoyed, staying online 24-7, enjoying being a Nocturnal, slept 20hrs a day as also staying put for more than 96hrs, upgrading My super computer :P, earn Money @ Will & spent it the same way, drawn Excellent Portraits, having the Best gadgets to move around with, enjoyed Friendship & even broke it, Tore My right Knee Ligament & moving on with a strapped knee even now, yet maintaining more than normal fitness, having a far Superior IQ & yet giving others the opportunity to laugh at Me, chat with people in 5 diverse time zones simultaneously & yet making sense with all of them, sleeping at odd times including office hrs, have a Girl Friend after breaking up with 1st, ability to write things I want & express in Public, keep a clear head in bad situation & come out good on numerous occasions, flirted wid certain Death on a trek, swam in the open sea for more than 8hrs, washed clothes @ 10k ft in freezing water as also defying many other high altitude attributes, travelled half My country, never wasted food even when full, faced Typhoid, helped friends when needed, always respected My Parents.......
Enjoy, sob, laugh, gossip, fight, flirt, apologise, trouble, get drunk, make fun off, love, feel it, hate to the core, take revenge, lend a shoulder, pull 1 when you need it, hug, get kissed, propose, get rejected, reject, shout, let Your silence speak, gossip, be selfish, be generous, empathise..... So Many Emotions & situations, yet never Greedy for anything nor run behind things like a Pace setter in the marathon. Isn't this enough for a person who was never 1st & yet has cumulatively Much Much more than the front runners...
I still don't bother on what ones have to say to Me, for what I believe in life is to live it the way I want to & not how others want Me to live. I define My Own success, My Own goals & achieve them, however erratic they may seem to others..
This is to My life & Hell, I am more than Satisfied with it. Everything that comes ahead is a Supreme Bonus to be accepted Gracefully & noted down in the Diary of Life !!!
