2 years plus have passed since we came together for the cause known to mankind as Track & Field. Hence, Trackists was formed back there & then. Good times shared, tough trainings we had, jokes & silly nicknames we gave each other, and of course, the races we went through. All these while, memories are trails we leave in our life.
Now that everyone's in their own path, we run our own routes. Our future will most probably be very different; some may choose to go abroad in the near future, some may stay. Everyone would have a different career & lifestyle definitely. Whether all of us will be able to meet up with full strength, that's an unknown. Memories will still linger somewhere no matter what.
But to all these dear friends and mates out there, remember the cause you run for. Is it for the win? Is it for the experience? Is it for yourself? Or is it for others? Whatever the reasons may be, make sure it is worthwhile and leaves minimal regrets and chances for despair. This run down the road call Life is not likely to be a smooth one for most, and most of the times there are things we have to face alone. It's like trying to train yourself and force your lazy body to move up that steep uphill route; you'll bound to feel fatigue & demoralised somehow someday.
When that happens, treat it like a race. Though you are facing problems and stress alone with no one to pace you with, at least you have the crowd cheering you on. That's what family & friends are for. Take their support and turn them to empower your motivation to move that extra step with extra effort and pull through. Every step is a step closer to goal.
To all of you out there, make sure you people hang in there in this war zone with bullets known as stress flying around and traps labelled as obstacles lying all over the place. Stay healthy in terms of emotional, mental & physical. Do take care and smile often.
Find your cause, run on.
