Cruise Control

Sometimes, I wish I had a cruise control mechanism fitted within me. Been going full throttle without looking and thinking. Living life in the fast lane is tempting and whats tempting makes you vulnerable; vulnerability exposes you to risks and threats; And they aren't easy to manoeuvre at a high speed. And then Bammmm!! Before you know it, you have already rammed into something. And whats worse is, you wont even know what it can do to you.

Ek lamhe mein simat aaya hai sadiyon ka safar
zindagi tez, bahut tez chali ho jaise


Slow down, I tell myself. It’s not enough to just slow down — one needs to actually be mindful of whatever one is doing at the moment. That only comes from knowing whats around us, and only possible when you take a pause to see whats surrounding us. And then you know whats coming your way and then bump into it ;) You'l know whether to stretch your arms to embrace it or fold them to block it.

Save your steam and fuel, drive along its a long winding road ahead! Bring on the cruise control!!
