 day of faith I cried today, again. But not out of fear, not out of resentment, not out of bitterness, not out of hurt but because I was touched. It may seem a simple act which could be dismissed as a wave- but it really meant a lot to me. It meant, that much to me. april o2 o8. You know, I really detest NAPFA. And though it was not the actual one, weekly practice for it was already deadening me to the core. "Another seven more to go!" "Ugh.." "Five more jumps!" "Okay get over here now and stretch your legs straight on the floor, facing your partner" "Screw P.E." But after the aches-cramps-muscle-stringing freak show which involved knee-sliding-on-sweat, it was time for the dreaded four rounds demanded of today. Running. Well, I didn't start off very positively Two rounds and I knew I wasn't going to last. But it wasn't really an option to stop and have a rest, so I pushed on, relentlessly. Until the end of the third round. Just one more to go, and yet I lacked the strength, I lacked the energy, I lacked the courage, needed for that last burst of 400m. And puffing right behind me came Moira. She whispered a "Jiayou" and gradually overtook me. Then turning back, she saw that I was seriously struggling And without hesitation Slowed down And took my hand My sweaty, gross, disgusting, worn, given-up hand Clasped it, and ran Ran with me, Towards the finish line Newfound confidence in the midst of collapse, A hand to hold Really left me with faith That someone was there Just holding on. And we made it. 10.03. When Ms Rozana was doing her de-brief, of sorts, I just.. Thought about that gesture. That honestly saved me. How she sacrificed her A timing, to get me through the fourth final round. How it had really strengthened me When everything, from overtaking runners, your own depleting confidence and ability, even the glaring, obstinate sun Is against you She really Really Made a difference. A tear. Two, three. Tiny, but they trickled So thank you Moira I couldn't have done it without you. And if it's of any difference.. It was the nicest, kindest, most touching thing anyone had ever done for me. God Bless And I'll remember o2o4o8 Happy Faith Day.
