Run For Your Life

I fell in love with running. It wasn't love at first sight. It was more like a curiosity when I started back in April 2012. An old couch potato like me tried to take up running? Then I discovered that running is pretty similar to life. Both require endurance, patience, perseverance, commitment & humility. Both demand I be happy with who I am and be content with my own progress. Comparing myself to others, whether in life or running, only lead to self destruction. I will always find someone who is doing a better job than me and I will get discouraged or worst I will quit. I will always find somebody I'm doing a better job than and I will be filled with foolish pride or worst I will be arrogant. It takes a lot of practice to be gratified with whatever today's achievement in running (whether it's 1K, 10K, 21K or 42.195K) and in life (whether it's daydreaming, getting promotion, inventing something or making world peace).  Practice makes perfect. Life is good. 
I'm in love.
