I want to live in the memory and remember the beautiful day I jogged to my extreme. If there is something really great in this world it is our bodies. If I was a Doctor I should have known that. Being an Engineer it happened to discover on my own. I wanted to shed some weight and want to become fit. I picked up jogging for minutes to hours, from meters to kilometers on time span of 2 months. Slowly my body picked-up to run 13 kms and I did it almost daily for a month. I ran everyday 13 kms back to my apartment after work. Finally in one fine Saturday, I hit 25 kms in 3.5 hours a big jog of my life time in a beautiful trail under a blissful temperature of 18 degrees. I stopped only after my water bottle went dry. I am not tired after the run. I felt the runner's high and meditational bliss. I cannot take pride. Because its my body (created by god Or evolved as per Darwin) which done this feet. Mind is a ghost. Body is God! Then back from Netherlands my project kicked-up and I again started gaining weight. But this time there is a big difference, I wont worry any more. Swimmers don't fear the stream, only people who don't. Now my mind know the secret of human body. Its just matter of time disciplining myself to start working-out.
Are you a Tamil... then you are a terrorist... First I will tell you a story. There was a Srilankan Tamil in Colombo. He had a high post in Sinhalese government. He is educated abroad and from wealthy family. He never felt that he is a Tamil. He stayed apart from Tamil politics. During the 1983 riot every Tamil family in Colombo was attacked. The Sinhalese mob had voter list in their hand. From voter list they found Tamil names and the address. They killed thousands and raped hundreds like this. Our highly educated pro-government guy was also attacked. He pleaded to the rioters that although he is Tamil he always worked with Sinhalese. The rioters did not listen. They stabbed him and molested his wife. The moral of the story is even though you did not identify yourself as a Tamil, the enemies will consider you as a Tamil. The moral is not just a moral. It is very real. Do you know why the Srilanka navy shoots Indian fisherman? Do you know why the Pakistan navy never shoot Indian fis...
