The Sundancer

The year was 2005. That kid belonging to the small town of New England got a bicycle. It was a cool bicycle, 'Sundancer' written on it with 2 trainer wheels. The kid used to drive it all along the alleyways of the town on the supporting training wheels.     Soon, he got rid of those trainer wheels, got really good in riding bicycle. As years passed, he hot a new Bicycle, this time a Hercules which was equipped with a 5 gear transmission system. The Sundancer lost its importance. Its steel rims that held the tyres started rusting. In less than 3 years, Sundancer was nothing more than a rusted machine while on the other hand, Hercules was nailing the roads. Some more years passed. The Hercules too, got old. The gear transmission got jammed and in no time, it was in the attic. It was Hercules's time to rust now. What's the implication of this? What do we have to do with some random layman kid's rusty bicycles? There must be thousands of such sundancers and Hercules...

The Commitments

There's this thing about Commitments.  They are known as commitments because they dont have any expiry date. What bothers me most is lack of people's courage to commit to something. Its something like  a give or take thing. You commit to something, you deserve a commitment in back. But its not always the perfect choice. Commiting to something is completely the individual choice, but what keeps me intriguing is: If someone is Commiting you something, do we have the moral responsibility to commit the same thing back? Or was it just his own choice to commit and that shouldn't mean any compelling behavior on the receiving party? This may sound insane or completely nonsense but thats what our life is all about...Give or take.
