Turn the wheel ...dammit..


The wheel can turn...but when?

As a young bangladeshi kissed the turf at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff....you could literally feel the energy vibrating through the entire Bangladeshi team..it was a sight to behold..they had played their hearts out..and beat all odds to come out trumps. You could feel the wheel was turning.....
Life ...life is a game of sorts...you win some..you lose some..but..it is important to make winning a habit..and come back stronger on losing..
Till yesterday..I presumed..Sania was just another media hype !! But at the 'Centre court' as she played..there was something..you couldn't help notice...there was this teenager knocking hard on the doors of stardom... If she hadn't played the first set so casually..maybe she would have won..maybe the doors would have opened up faster for her..! But at the end of the high energy drama ..you could feel...you could feel, she would be someone to reckon with..soon...

In our lives, we come across many moments..when we say to ourselves..'Had I put in a bit more effort ...I could have certainly done a lot more better'...Dont you feel that these are ways to spoil ourselves just a little more....! Remarks to console our sorry self...to pity ourselves. Instead..why dont we put in our best at the first oppurtunity! Why don't we say to ourself..'Whatever..I do, I am going to give it my best..each and every time'. Why don't WE ! ...May be this is human nature..

For those looking for some inspiration need not go far beyond Kiplings 'IF'..but..the scenario described is too theoritical to be true. But..if we can put in our best to follow what he says ...then..surely..'Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!' .

Everyone tries their best but no one relizes it.. No one tries to find out if a person is trying his/her best or not? what one see notices whether his views matches with mine or not.. ? Sania plays well but no one sees her effort. Her efforts are being determined by the result of the match. What if she has put her best effort but still she looses ? Should we blame her..? I donot think so..and I will not.. She is cute and she has passion for tennis, otherwise she would have created history in Indian Tennis...Everyone does his/her best in a given situation but we people judge by the result and do not perceive the effort put by a person... This is becoz we are taught to be professional and not look humanity in us... which we humans should not... !

Ohhh..that was too much..i told..she played..pretty well..cause i watched the match...but you should have seen the first set of the match..she hardly tried..dunno why! But..she played hard..the next set..when she realized she was going to lose..She has potential and passion for the game, no denying the fact, but she has to give her best..every point she plays..
