Resolve

Inspiration comes in different forms to us all: meeting people, watching a movie, hearing music; it could be as intense as a conversation with the divine or as simple as a conversation over the phone.

I'm going to give something a little crazy a shot. I participated in the Mumbai marathon last year in the 6 km run. I ran for charity and managed to raise Rs. 45,000 or $1100 USD. The marathon in 2008 is again in January and this time I want to attempt two things that border the unlikely: I want to run 42 Kms and while attempting to do so I want to raise at least Rs. 1 Lac or $ 2200 USD for charity. I intend this money going to 2 organizations, one in Bangalore and one in Mumbai. I'll put up a more permanent news ticker with information on the charities in this space soon.
