Running

I was working last evening from my apartment in Delhi apartment with the iPod on shuffle and a song that was big in the US last year, but that I'd never really bothered to listen to after I downloaded it came on, something in the lyrics grabbed me (nothing unusual in that) and I found myself starting the song over again several times to make everything out.

Soon I found myself googling the lyrics so I could make everything out and while I love the message of the entire song, I found myself struck by a phrase in the middle of the song:

She never stays the same for long
Assuming she'll get it wrong

The song talks about a girl who is willing to change everything about herself to try and find someone who will love her and stay with her. While I can't quite relate to the overall message of the song, this single phrase stuck with me and kept me up wondering about my own constant need for change. Am I running from something, to something, trying to out run something or just running so I don't have to stop and think

Hey you! Your "running" adventures sound like a lot of fun. Eventually you'll run into something that will either knock you over or cause you slow down.
