Life as it is............

Have you ever felt the rush....
of sittin on a wooden sledge n sliding down a cold cold icey slope....at zillion kilometers per hour.
Close your eyes and open it to find yourself in a new world,
for that great rush that you felt for those fifteen seconds were more precious than any gold, or a wedding ring, or even the best score of your life.
No, its not fictional, I do at times like to talk about myself in first person.
Yeah i know that brings a grin on your face, and you know what it does the same to me.
When you are on that sledge your face is cold, your nose is frozen, red...goin to turn blue any moment, you know you might just fall, you know you might get hurt;
but then you take a deep breath and what the hell just go for it,
next thing you know your screaming out of ecstacy, and you just scream automatically, its not a conscious scream, no one really tells you to do it.
And then again those few seconds when you let lose and when you are just YOU, those few seconds make all of it worthwhile.
I have felt this rush, time and again i can just close my eyes and hear myself laughing and screaming with joy. You know who showed me the way to it, my friend Leonardo da vinci.
Leonardo taught me so many things, but he always makes me feel like the smarter one.
He isn't really the most rational person under the sun but he makes me so, if I may say much against his wishes...
He doesn't understand all the time, but i need to say that he makes life beautiful for me
and i like it every time he takes no credit for it. I smile.

So my dearest friend Leonardo da vinci let me tell you that i love you dearly and I would like to thank you for making me look at life the way i do now, thank you for making me love life the way i love it now, for teaching me to seek happiness out of the simplest things, thank you for teaching me the virtue of simplicity.

You know, its you who showed me that life is a clever seductress and i shouldn't let her wiles just go by.
