Happy……….peaceful….rejuvenated

32 km ride on mountain terrain , I went to attend a colleague‘s brother marriage. It was  hardly  16 km from my office area. Thought it was a small ride, a small motorcycle …but those things nothing matters now .The same old thought, its not what you ride …..its just one thing YOU ARE RIDING. I was missing something,  from past few days i have a mood swing I donno why , but today I got an answer  . It was the roads I missed, that sound of the wind, those twist and turns.  “Mountain roads”, it always makes me more comfortable than usual. I feel more peaceful when I am riding hi ranges,, twists & turns . elevations, up and downs, gutters, slush, unpredictable vehicles coming opposite to us just like our lifes.

I donno where did I get that riding bug in my head , deep inside it was never about riding, it is  just  a medium to think,  to travel, to experience. Experience no matter what good or bad. There are lot of things to learn from each and every experiences in my life and in everyone’s  life too. I have faced far more dangerous situation in my service ( I am not calling it a profession ,bcoz I am not here for a job  I am here to serve) than a normal adventure tourer or traveler. Despite of all these hardships and sufferings that I endured & survived in my life , I donno when I started to dream about travelling  biking cycling,  dreaming of doing all those stupid things ( like my seniors and amma says he he). But those stupid things are making me peaceful, it’s a different kind of peace I am experiencing, the same kind of peace I have experienced through meditation and yoga a couple of years ago. I feel more concentrated when I am riding. A couple of months earlier one of my friend asked me what makes me happiest most….it was a difficult question because I never thought  about that. I am not in search of happiness, its experiences what I seek .

Why ? I have no answer for why…………………………
