Twist the throttle
I’ve been uninspired to write these past few days. There’s not a lack of inspiration but I just could not get myself to spew out the words.
Yesterday I went to the province for a work thing. The travel was a perfect opportunity to 'talk' with myself. But nada, my mind was blank. Looking out from the car window, I enjoyed the sky and trees. Even the lines on the roads and lights of the cars.
I saw a LOT of motorcycles. Parked, swerving, driving beside, towards. I thought about how I learn to ride one. It's simply like riding a bicycle, they say. And it is.
Maintaining balance is critical. If you feel out-of-balance, you either stop or twist the throttle. You stop, put down your feet., and you don't fall on your side. You twist the throttle, you keep going, you're back on the road.
I won't ramble about some philosophical stuff in here. I just want to be reminded.
In life, when we're about to fall, we just twist the throttle.
To keep going, to maintain balance.
Oh, I miss long rides.
