Twice in a day is something…but I have my reasons and they are compelling enough for me to write this one too and post it today itself. And yes, I am going to write about the so called compelling reasons here.
At the time of posting the last one, when I went to my page to cross check if everything was alright, there staring right into my face was the date today December 10th. And then it struck me, that it is kinda special today. Well apart from my best pal Sunit’s birth day, someone else has got older today. My ThunderBird. My beloved bike. It’s completing its 2 years in my ownership, albeit on paper for most of the time. But we have had our fair share of moments together and we do have that chemistry thing going, Sufficient enough that I refer it as a companion. I remember writing a post for the same reasons last year, in fact right after I put this one up, I will go and read it.
It is kinda strange though how an inane object can become so special for someone. And I am not being weird here when I call my bike a companion or something, most if not all of us have certain non – living things they feel very close too. I will stick to my gender here, because the fairer sex I truly fail to understand, they almost seem to operate in a parallel universe which although has the same physical and psychological appearance but still has an entirely different set of laws governing it, definitely not Newtonian. Most of the guys are very touchy about there motorbikes, me obviously being one of them, some have their computers/laptops and so on and so forth. And it’s not just the sense of ownership that I am talking about here. It’s the feeling of being one with the thing. Almost love.
And so now that I have entirely digressed from the topic that I had originally had in mind, I will put in my closing remarks. And in that I would like to quote myself….
”And the world was my play ground so to say….and from that day on it has become my escape…”
PS : Although my fingers are aching now, its Fade to Black on the guitar right now!!
