Life is a Journey, not the Destination… is a well-known quote, which shows us the way of living life, going through every phase, and await the next phase with a constant anxiety, and trying to make it better than the present phase, there is a constant strategy which goes behind this journey, planning pit stops, compensating speed at the sharp corners, and accelerating full throttle on a flat out straight…. Everything to make sure we extract the best out of our car called life, on the racetrack called world.

As in Formula One, so in life… the best team wins. Some of these team members are always there in our families who make sure that we get a safe and solid qualifying session so that we get the best position on the starting grid in this all-important race. They keep a check on our proceedings in the race as well, giving us necessary feedbacks during our pit stops.

But once we are on the racetrack of life we have to go through some phases where we are alone on a piece of track which is tough to negotiate, at that time our team members in the pits might not be able to come to our aid. For these times god has given humans an ability to make friends. Friends who can help us go through those tough phases with efficiency, friends who help us optimize our performance, when we thought we might lose it. In the end, the one who has the most number of friends who can help him go through every phase of life with competence would win the race, coz he has the strongest team.  

To go with this thought I found a quote by Tim Cahill:

“Journey is best measured in friends … not in miles”

The Formula One bandwagon has already started off this year and the start could not have been better for me. With Kimi in his dashing red ferrari, making his mark. Go Kimi Go Ferrari.
