Did we let the world cup slip through our fingers? Unbelievable...dilhara....which ass put him on the team...and has our bowling ever been that bad?? We gave the Ausie's so much of confidence that they ended up pounding 6's for Malinga's balls...and there were talks and murmurs about if the match was fixed...
honour above all...that's a lotta bullshit in todays terms...what happened to giving it all we've got...if you read my post before this you'd realize that the raids hit me and my friends immensely...im no die hard cricket fan...but i know that cricket has made Sri Lanka a global entity...we're out there because our boys perform...even after the raid yesterday most of us were sending silent prayers that we'll pull through the match and show all the macho racists that have the gumption to question our strength as a nation or a team or as a irrefutably sound economy...(Yes I am the eternal optimist), the stuff a lankan's made of...
We srilankans are known for our sportsmanship...we never give up...even when its dark, slippery and cold we're out there hitting god knows what with everything we've got...all i know is we all had our hearts broken atleast once yesterday...i think i just contradicted my own statement...need to catch up on lost sleep...lets get them next time boys....still proud of you...it was a long journey and you walked it well...
About Me
- Anu Widya
- I created this blog when I was a child growing up in Sri Lanka amidst the civil war. Looking back at some of those words I want to feel sad for that child. But I all I feel is thankful for the moments that created me as I am today. Once I was scared of how those word would be received. Now I have learnt that fear is a choice you make. So I've decided to revive these words and maybe occasionally add a few words from the adult me. The 1st poem I've published in over 6 years was written on a flight back from NYC where I found so much peace and light for which I am always and utterly grateful.
