I guess this year we can sense the power of sports even more than before.
As the current IPL season is in full swing, many people must have turned to watching cricket rather than watch news channels and so on.
And, I’m sure they’re enjoying much more now than before. Personally for me, since I’m more of a football person I’ve had the previlige to enjoy it for a few months now. Last season’s matches barely finished and the current season started in no time.
But, for a cricket mad country like ours this IPL must have come like a boon for many at this trying times of life in general. The joy to watch something live, to go through the uncertainty of it can never be replaced by anything else.
That is the power of sports, not only the players participating in it but also the spectators watching it go through pretty much all the human emotions, experiences in that short span of time. It has the power to wipe out the negative emotional effect that is largely being seen in the society. Well, if not permanently then atleast temporarily for sure.
This year perhaps, unlike others, it’s been evident more than ever before.
Om Shanti….?
