Loneliness of the long distance runner...

I plagiarized that movie name, but justified so when seemingly someone has walked in my shoes, done the time and walked the mile thinking of destiny and leaving familiar places in search of the promised land but then realized it is nothing but an illusion and just a formation of an all elusive 'answer' that every lost mind is so keenly inclined to find, adopt, adapt and eventually succumb to truth, thinking it will unfold in some grandeur and there by attain nirvana.

It is mystic and today is no different. The day has receded to a dreamer's night, starry sky that wraps ever so gently this world not to be forgotten. I step aside from living for a moment and glance behind in to those lost, as the cliche goes, but not forgotten alleys that built and taught me.

So he hiked in search of never land, building lives those of strangers he felt obliged and breaking his loved ones as if from pain comes redemption, from sorrow rises serenity and from abstinence blossoms love. Tread my man for what you seek will live forever.
