Only with my Santro's entry, did I find my urge to drive... For someone who didn't have the opportunity to ride a cycle this was a big move, at least it appeared so then! As a toddler, I did take my first steps, and am most thankful to all those who pushed me to make this move.
Back now, I feel like am in my teens exploring driving - Eon within the city and Ertiga on the highway is like a bonanza :) As am pursuing to learn the finer nuances of driving and graduate soon, each driving experience enriches me with some life's lessons.
- It's your life, you can have your preferences, you can make all your decisions but always there is a room for Uncertainity! Be prepared to embrace and act.
- You are on the steering wheel of your life, so its always critical to see through all those distractions, turbulence, etc and manage to steer through your life happily.
- As you move on in life, along comes many types of people, challenges, known & unknown; the one thing that will help you wade thorough all this is Patience - the moment we loose it, hell breaks loose!
- Let go of Fear to enjoy life and live to the fullest! The moment fear takes control, you end up goofing up which you otherwise won't have.
- Along with independence and freedom, there comes responsibility - to ensure that as much as possible our actions don't hurt anyone else!
- Outside our control when things tend to happen embrace it and find a way to live through it. Analyze, you may, to see what could have been better but no amount of repending, cribbing, and worrying will help!
- In your life's path, there will be people and their ways and moments that may not be of your liking... If you can bring some changes well and good. If not, bring in changes to yourself and your ways of dealing with them and move on...
- Times we travel the known path and times we need to choose to travel the road less traveled. Do so without hesitation but let it be an informed decision of yours.
- Be open, adaptable and flexible as life unravels and you will find yourself creating cherished moments. (you never hesitate to take a ride or drive newer models!)
- At all point in time, continue to learn and grow. Every bend is an unknown (until we go through it) so be aware and continue to learn your lessons.
- Don't pollute! Keep a check of your words and actions always. As a vehicle needs to be serviced, you too need to introspect and also take care of your health.
Enjoy Driving, Enjoy Living! Live and Let Live :))
