Thank you

I am struggling to swim.

People who taught me to stay afloat
Folks who asked me to stay put in the life boat - Thank you.
You gave me Hope and Support
Interactions with you significant though short

People who left me drowning
Folks whose (in)actions kept me fuming- A BIG Thank you 
You taught me life's best lesson
I have grown strong and immune.

People who pushed me to the ocean
People who left me when heart broken
People who taught me the swimming lesson
I can never forget all 3 of you.

I am yet to reach the shore.
There is a lot more to cover.
reach, I will with a huge uproar
just to soar high and bigger.

Remember this,
it is gonna take you a lot of effort
to unplug my life support
think before you dismiss (me)

Thank you all
I will remain perpetual.

Impressions

1-1-3-2-7

 1-1-32 - the magic, the kick that keeps me high. This is the lead, that too an unassailable lead I have had all these years. It is historic. Is there any history of history-repeating-itself? 

Feels haughty every time this thought flashes through my mind. It is this reminder that is (all that is) needed to spring back up and sprint through the finish lines, head held high, pumped up fists.

There is no way I can be off the podium, always remain a photo op, soaked in flickering flash lights.

At times when 1-1-3-2-7 does not give me enough juice, when I look outside for motivation I end up looking up to one of these personalities:

G.ly

Controlled aggression, channeled appropriately has propelled to top. Bridled aggression backed up with a memory of past ignominy and fueled by a revengeful fire a perfect launch pad to get on top, to never ever get toppled.

 M.ha

Be the best. Beat the best. Remain the best. Keep everyone awestruck.

An.a

When anything can be explained, when anything can be possible, when there is no giving-up - just be Assertive. Assertive. Assertive.

 

Sh.m

If it is yours it is yours forever. Baasha. If it is your baby its your baby. Always leave behind a legacy. You move on for better turfs, you leave your shadow behind, your shadow breathes, your shadow LIVES. That's legacy. Baasha.
