Desperation and quiet

There is this sense of desperation deep within. I wonder who or what I am and what I want to be. Its this sense of uneasiness within that is driving me up the wall. Know how it feels when you leave everything behind and then find yourself all lost again? I think, I do. Every cell of mine is revolting – kind of stopping me from making that leap. I for one know, once I make that leap – I will grow and won’t remain what I have been.

I feel constricted. That feeling in your throat that never lets you complete your thought or your sentence.

Everytime I’ve been challenged in my life and I’ve lost myself – I’ve hit back. Brutually. It has been like making a point, but over a period of time, you tend to forget to whom the point was being made and that is how I have grown through my challenges and my pain. I stand at another crossroad this time – not knowing where I will land if I start. May be the fear of starting pulls me back – the safety of the known. I haven’t run in a looooooooong time, just lazed and ambled around… I don’t know if I am going to start running again. But if I do, the next time I stop, I hope I have grown to be a better man. The thing about running, I’ve always run for myself – that has to change. I have nothing to prove to myself now – I need to run for my people. Lots of promises to keep and lots of people to take care of. I hope I remain worthy of what I have received all my life.

Signing off this blog.

Will start a thread in the PG forums and continue about my Life at W there.

    Somewhere I can identify with the lost feeling which I myself m goin thru, standing at crossroads in life. I know I would fightback but looking for the best way to do it.

    Thats the spirit which can take us ahead.

    Hey Allwin,
    Nicely Put man. “I hope I remain worthy of what I have received all my life”.
    This feeling of emptiness was bound to be there when “I have nothing to prove to myself now”.
    This crossroad where you stand does not even have a starting point marked for now.
    You can take my word that the feeling will just get worse for some time untill it fills in the emptiness. But just wait and imbibe it for the view will be clearer sooner or later. Till then do what “Bhagvad Gita” advices “Karm”
    Gud Luck :)

    14) Never been to a pub, never had a sip of beer, never smoked a cigarette. I guess I have bigger addictions and life is one of them ;)
    16) I want the time to write and inspire. Someone out there might find something useful from my life experimentations.

    Bull Crap!!
    You can never run for anyone else.period.

    “I’ve always run for myself ” – were the most beautiful words on your blog.

    action is reaction to thought metamorphosing to challenge, struggle is yours to cherish and worth is you, the final product.

    worth is lost at the outset, if the action is triggered by a external source or by the self impulse of making a point to the unknown.

    :)
