To register beauty, grace and style in the prolonged run:

“No trumpets sound when the important decisions of our life are made. Destiny is made known silently”. Says Agnes de Mille. When I look back and ruminate over my life I am amazed and thrilled to find the wisdom contained in this quote. So many important events/ decisions have taken place in my life in a more subtle and a silent way. I know that I should have done many things in a different way as every one would like to think .Bu I guess there must have been a reason for every thing I did. Although I want to set some modest goals to streamline the academic files and write something substantially and more significantly, still I am so sure what I want to be any more. Being displeased and disappointed with my own academic output, now I want to keep the frustrations to myself. I know I have to stay focused in order that I will finish what I had started. Sometimes many things happen even when you do every thing right. That is precisely the time where you have to have more faith and move on , so that you can get out of the hellish situation .People go through life wondering what they are suppose to do, when it always right in front of them. The tendency not to notice it is the main reason for not doing many things in life. We should do what we are good at. How do we accomplish the task an whether or not it is good or bad, right or wrong, shallow or rich, let the posterity decide .I know I will never be as strong as my father and mother but they gave me enormous amount of intellectual capital and therefore a moment will definitely come and some thing will click with me as was the case in the distant past .I cannot run faster to win the race. But I must run the race in such a way that others must see a beauty, the style and the grace in the art of running .During day time I had slept more than warranted. I had not slept well and go the usual quality sleep at night: the disturbed inadequate sleep meant that it was shallow. Now it is clear that I have to make a clean break from the past and catch up with the new spirit of great moderation in sleep and run faster, without skipping minimum diet and walking, which are very badly needed to register that beauty in the prolonged run which eventually make the heart beat with a sense of academic solace and joy to register beauty in the prolonged run.
