I want to run away,

Into the woods,

Where selfish don’t sing,

Greedy don’t sell,

Unkind don’t serve,

Wicked don’t exist,

Where only the bells ring,

Swings of melody,

Jingles of care,

Tunes of Love.

I want to run away.

Do you get such thoughts and feelings too?

***

"If you can follow the silence,

If you can love the hate,

If there is thyself in those eyes,

If gestures make the talk,

If you can sparkle in the bright,

If you can breathe the breathe,

If you can forget who you are,

You have started the RUN."

Ready???

Get!

Set!!

Go!!!

The weird part is no one has told us this and still we have been running. In this unannounced sprint we have been running like a horse, like a snail, like a hare, like a tortoise, like an ass as well. If you know what I mean! If you are thinking it has an impressive profound logic out there, then stop! I just mean to imply that we behave like different animals in the ‘run’ of our lives.

With changing generation we have reached a state where we need recurrent inspirations. I missed to add extremely to that sentence. We need extremely recurrent and periodic inspirations. Most of our routines are short-lived. I really don’t know what has led us there but we are just there. It’s just like skipping the preface of the book and getting right to the story! So why I did not wanted to write a ‘Preface’. But it came out as a tradition. Now if you are thinking why suddenly out of the blue this paragraph appeared, then I don’t know! It’s a

‘disconnected random world’.

Wait! Does it mean this is going to be a self help book?

Nahh! (Can be read as definitely Nahh!)

I don’t know to what category this narrative would belong to. All I can say is, proudly, ‘This isn’t some fake click-bait online crap’. It was one fine day, late night actually, while I was travelling back to hometown and a WhatsApp conversation with a ‘good’ friend triggered me to put in writing with reference to this.

I have this concept of ‘Run’ and all I want to do is to explain what it is and what it means in a very (read ‘very’ in a very stressed and stretched expression) detailed and to the point analysis.

Again, Wait!
