Taking the 'Decision'

Imagine someone who is lazy, takes ages to get out of the bed in the morning, regularly makes resolutions for exercising and stop eating junk food, yet dreams of going on trekking expeditions and gets thrilled by the thoughts of conquering the highest peaks! Now imagine what happens when her (my) office announces a trekking trip to Sandakfu and back.

It's the decision that has to be taken.

First reaction: I want to go, it's for me!!

Second thought: Will I be able to manage it...mainly health wise (it's a seven days trek)

Third...point to consider: I am little bit asthmatic. So, what! A little bit na!!!

More thoughts: Will dad agree? (He did!!! But on condition that I prepare for the trip by doing regular stamina building exercises)

Sidey thoughts: Will S (my colleague is sort of leader of this group) take me? After all experienced persons will be preferred, but everybody has a first time :)

Enthusiastic thoughts: I will do it! I will achieve! I will climb the stairs! I will exercise! I will practice walking! I will....

Emotional entanglements: Friends a planning a trip to Shankarpur. I'll miss it. I'll miss you all, unless you change the dates for my sake. Love you. FYI: I am more fond of mountains than beaches ;)

Social issues: A girl shouldn't walk with so many guys on a mountain path. It's risky. Okay! Okay! It may not be risky...but the guys will not feel comfortable...yaaaaa!!! All are my brothers :P

Doubts again: What if I can't make it? What if I can't walk? What if I fall behind? What if....?

An encouraging push: Sandakfu trek is for beginners. You'll enjoy yourself. It's a lifetime experience...and some more encouraging blahs by my dear friend B!!
Ahh!!! My dreams are charged up again with renewed vigour. I am happy.

A confident decision: I have started walking a lot and climbing stairs a lot and exercising a lot and building stamina a lot and....I am confident. I have decided. I am going.

Yahhooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Just waiting to live my dream.....
