Clueless
I have remained clueless for a long while....
Why do people judge you or themselves by the title you/they are holding in your/their company? Account Manager? Impressive!! Director? Awesome!!! Retrenched by company? erh.......something must be wrong with you.
Undeniably, our society is a meritocratic one.
Many a times, our personal worth are defined by what/where we stay in, the size of car we drive and the job title we hold.
Given the limited resources each of us have, we tend to go for the minimum-input-maximum-output methodology. Whats in it for me? You will always ask. No longer people will want to take the "long cut", forgetting that the road less travelled, is the more rewarding one.
We become more conditional in our human interaction. "I will do this for you only if you do this for me" or the "You didnt do this for me so why should i do this for you".
When will we start to trade "relationship" footprint on some commodity exchanges like we trade carbon footprint? Ok...so and so owes me a favour and i am trading this favour in return for something. Name your price!
I am learning to be more unconditional in my dealings with family and friends. I am not perfect and am not trying to be one perfect soul.
My wife and my baby make me want to be a better person, i have found love that i didnt know exist before.
Will you give your life in exchange for theirs? I will.
If you wont, you may need to think about it.

Hello
Havent been running a lot lately, havent been watching movies for a while, havent been fishing....
In fact, I havent been able to do those activities I used to do.
This must be the New-Parents-Deficiency-Syndrome.
I have decided to walkover the Sundown Marathon, due to the lack of proper mileage.
The weekly gym session is the only "sports" activity that keep my tummy in its original size.
This cannot go on : ) Laziness is addictive. Laziness is scary.
I have signed up for AHM. Just needed some motivation and pressure to get myself back in motion.
Last year I clocked 2:20 at the AHM. I hope that this year I can at least do the same.
Time to start training!

7. I love comics. You wont know it unless you have been to my house.
