The Race

Updated: Jul 23, 2023

You never wanted to join the race. You simply wanted to ‘lead and manage’. Your traits nudged you forward and then the instinct to do well took over. There are a large number of rats running and you begin to enjoy their company. Who was left behind, whether a friend or a foe, you were least bothered? You suffered burnout, so what? Your health deteriorated, doesn’t matter. You kept at it as there was so much to be achieved.


You are now in the company of the superior rats, the stalwarts of the races of the bygone era. This kind of motivates you to continue running hard and why not. You get rewarded from time to time though you are not very sure of the reasons for these rewards. Are these for performance or giving company to the other rats? These rewards make you feel you have won till you find there are few always ahead of you. There is no end in sight.


Find the time to read, smell the flowers, paint your dreams, have a drink with a friend, learn a new skill, write a letter, bake a surprise cake, go somewhere you always wanted, to really be with the person you love, or even do nothing for a while…Just be yourself.
