my bike

Recently, i have been spending alot of time with my bike. and the times are filled with my sweat and my energy, and of course having to face how people looked at me. why do i say this, because just the past two weeks alone my bike has been towed twice, and i have pushed my bike quite a distance to the bike shop twice too. all these were done sweating, panting, and onlookers looking at this young man pushing his bike to dontknow where.
for past two months since i got my license, my bike were serving well, no problems, just some regular maintainance did the job. but nowadays it has been getting cranky and i really dont know what is the problem with it, but well, $ did the job.
i have been pondering whether is it i bought over a faulty bike or whether is it getting old, or whether is it got some buggers were trying to get something out of the bike when it was parked and all. i have thought of the probabilities and i am also quite sian whenever ride halfway it get stucked or whatsoever.
through all these, i have learnt that even in bad times, you can really learn things out from it too. like how i enjoyed to walk back to my house from the bike shop after i pushed it all the way there. i also gained some "experience" on bike and get to know/understand it better after going through the same thing over again. i have also learnt to "treat $ more openly". i dont really know how to explain the treat $ more openly but i think to put it simply is to not treat $ as a too important thingy which is a must have thing in life. and also i began to understand more of my parents hard work slogging away to "maintain" us, just like how i try to maintain the bike.
well, i am really thankful so far no accidents or so and i am really very grateful for that. so well, if you have a positive mindset, things around you will look more positive too! :)
