Well ... you can have all the "logical" discussions on Him ... criticizing him ... questioning Him ... demanding Him ....
But He is the one of the very very few in our lives from whom we have DEMANDED things ... we didn't just appreciated or criticized Him ... we DEMANDED Him to perform coz when He performed we felt a part of ourselves is performing to the best of His ability
Tagging Him God is something I have done and I will continue doing ... but not in this post coz in the present world we have made God a distant entity ... He is well within us
By Saying this I question myself that why I didn't say this for Rahul Dravid or Sourav Ganguly or many such great personality ... and at that time I ridicule myself coz it utterly false to think that now I am saying this for Him means I am doing some injustice to other players whom I probably love more ...
When I am typing this ... I am not portraying only Him in my mind but also these great souls well ... He is great coz He in His entire life He achieved greatness without taking away the greatness/share of the others ... Media might have given other players lesser comparatively but that's media's fault not mine and so I say this about Him without any Guilt ... I do share same feeling with a slight different flavors for Rahul Dravid., Ganguly, etc.
There is no second opinion coz its a fact that something which have earned a synonym of permanence is ending ...
A person who have been not playing in a match, but the people had the Him somewhere in the back of the mind ... It was never a case when in a match or in a discussion of cricket He was not discussed or compared or many a times mocked ....
It is like you take a dive in a 30 feet pool ... you are doing a deep water swimming with no air what so ever around you to breath ... but you do it with confidence coz you have trust that you just need to rise up the water level and you will breath life ... A Goodbye from Him has created a mistrust in me and many other you feel like they are deep diving in cricket ...
Mistrust that is the air still there??!!
He is leaving cricket ... but its hard to imagine that cricket will leave Him ....
I strongly feel that He would still be discussed, appreciated and possibly mocked at times by many ... but He can't be forgotten ... He won't be forgotten ...
He has left a mark on the stone slab of cricket ... "Sachiiiiiiiiiiin .... Sachin" will live in parallel universes and in the minds and subconsciousness of all ....
But the Mistrust will remain forever ... is the air still there??!!
