"Its White"- Paper, Snow, A ghost..??

I was watching FRIENDS, the episode in which Joey was on a Game show, The Pyramid. He was given the clue..”Its white” and all he came up with was “Paper,snow,a ghost!”.   


I couldn’t help but smile then. I always liked Joey’s character despite the fact that he was dumb, reason being he lived his life blissfully even though his world was limited.


We all desire for a world of possibilities, a world where we have oodles of choices..so that we are able to select the one which is best suited for us. We like to weigh all our options and go for the one which suits us in the best possible way.


But I feel, more the number of choices, more is the chaos and confusion. For someone like me who feels making a decision is no less than a herculean task, these choices create a havoc!! I feel like a jack of all trades, master of none!! And that is when I  wonder..How simple life would be if the choices offered were less! No complications..no confusion! U either have an A or B! That is actually how I usually narrow down all my choices and make decisions..but nowadays  it is getting really hard.


So, when I face any dilemma and I don’t know what to do..I  follow a simple -’take a chance’  strategy. If the choice works, lucky me!! If it doesn’t, well I  definitely get to  learn something. And when u learn something the hard way..u tend to keep it fr a longer time..;)


P.S. For those who haven’t seen that episode.

Say it?

We are gifted with a lot of relations in this world but “Love” is one of the priceless emotions which one yearns to cherish.
It is said falling in love is fate. You dont know when, where or how you might fall for someone. It just happens and when you realise it..you actually feel on top of the world..indeed one of the amazing feeling of all..!


When you like someone, just being around that person makes your day…Everything around seems so damn good…so fresh and alive..and when that person responds the the way you expected..then your smile says it all!!


You dont realize that u’ve been wearing that weirdly stupid smile all day. You even fail to notice that today,inspite of ur expectaions u’ve been surprisingly cheerful after u’ve talked to, seen or met that particular person who was indeed the reason for ur smile. And very often this smile makes u feel special..and raises a lot of questions too..:P


Before going to sleep, you review your entire day and remind yourself of those “special” moments. When you wake up..you just get ready to meet that person. Its all natural and it just flows. Suddenly all your thoughts seem to belong to that one person. You are just not you anymore!!!


The tricky part, however, is when even after realizing that you have almost entered in a whole new world…you just want to stop yourself..! You like the change..and you slowly get used to it too even though you know very well that sooner or later its gonna hurt someone.


You get scared enough to listen to your heart and just try harder and harder to be what you are not anymore.


You are confused. You get irritated and then you ask opinions.


“Say It”..people say. Of course, no one will understand what you feel until you tell it to someone, and esp the one whom you want it to know. You should say it and let it out is what the popular opinion is.


But sometimes..its better to wait and let your feelings unfold with time…
Sometimes..even you need more time than you think….
Sometimes..words are not actually needed to express everything…
You feel it…..you believe in it and it’ll happen for sure…………..

Music and Melody....

Songs merely meant lyrics to sing along before you explained me what music actually is!

When you played your guitar, feeling every note...When you sang along..feeling every word..I realised that music is something that touches not only your heart but even your soul!

Whenever I heard you singing I always thought I am not a music person..coz I could neither sing melodiously like you..nor could I play like you!

But still I could feel it..in every song I listened to..the depth of every word..melody of every note...! I could appreciate its power..its amazing quality to help me think whenever I found myself strangled in any situation..making me cry whenever I tried to keep the sad feelings inside me and making me smile when I got an instant flashback of the happy moments..:)

Though I lack that natural talent, the fact that I can feel it makes me a music person too..! Even my name means 'thematic line of a song!'..and that kind of explains how I can feel music so much!! ;)

  

This post is dedicated to you buddy!..:)

Missing the infinite torcher you gave me..(when you kept playing one song so many times that I eventually began hating it!!)...our endless duets..(where I used to spoil all your awesome songs! :P)..you bugging me every once in a while for a song suggestion and the lovely sound of your guitar..(& you begging me to record it!)!

Hoping to listen to your songs very soon....:)

A sweet feeling..

How amazingly sweet is to fall in love??


I am pretty sure I havent felt anything close to that..but sometimes..when I imagine any thing like that..I always end up in my own little fantasy world!!


The person who loves you knows the real you and he'll accept that in a heartbeat! 
You just tend to be a cute little kid..and he the caring one...!
He will make you smile no matter whatever your situation was a moment ago..!
You'll be angry..or appear to be so..whenever he doesnt take care of himself..and both of u know..you care way too much..!
Being there..just with each other..makes you forget everything..and u never want that moment to fade away......coz u know you are meant for each other!!!! :)

YES! He's there...

No matter how messed up and critical things get..there is always a little undying hope which tells us that everything will be all right..It isn't that bad as it seems...


But then, often it gets worse. Even though you've been really strong for a while.. at some point you get scared of the consequences..the present state and the possible outcomes...! Totally helpless and clueless!  Nothing seems to be in your hands anymore!


The omnipresent sacred soul then comes to your rescue..! Fully aware of the complexity of your situation you somehow tend to have faith in him..the belief that he's there and he just might be gracious enough to bestow his blessings upon you, merciful enough to open the new doors when everything else seems impossible..! 


You might not be lucky enough to witness a miracle, but that little prayer can offer you what you need the most at that time..peace of mind enabling ability to think clearly and act, and most importantly a restoration of that faith!! 


I believe that anything wished with pure heart and good intentions has the power to come true...the belief that God will lead you there just makes the journey easy!  :)

"Kuch aur"...

"गम  सब  की  ज़िन्दगी  में  हैं  लेकिन  दूसरों की  छोटी  सी  ख़ुशी  में  शामिल  होने  का  मज़ा ही  कुछ  और  है..

पास  नहीं  तो  क्या ..किसी  की  याद   में  मुस्कुराने   का  एहसास  ही  कुछ  और  है...

बारीश  सबको  भाती है  पर  उन  चंद   बूंदों   से   महकी   गीली   मिटटी   की   खुशबू  की बात  ही  कुछ  और  है ..

कितने  भी   नए   रिश्ते   बन   जाएँ  ..पर   पुराने   दोस्तों   से   मिलने   की   ख़ुशी  ही   कुछ   और  है ..

माँ  पापा   की   डांट  तो  सब  सुनते  है ..लेकिन  उनकी  एक  मुस्कराहट  का  कारण  बनने   का  मज़ा   ही  कुछ  और  है ..

शब्दों  के  जरिये  दिल   का  हाल  तो  सब  समझ   जाते   है..कोई  तुम्हारी  आँखें  पढ़  के सब  समझ  जाये  तो  बात  ही  कुछ  और  है ...

चाहे  जितना  आगे  बढ़  जाये  इस  तेज़  रफ़्तार  ज़िन्दगी  में ..दो  पल  रुक  कर  कुछ  ना  करने   का  मज़ा  ही  कुछ  और  है ........"

What a world it was...!

How beautiful that tiny world was...where getting our share of chocolate was justice..and achievement of the day was to win a cricket match or a game of ludo! Promises were always meant to be kept...friends were a part of our soul..exams were the only hurdles..little fights turned our world upside down..and that mischievous smile was never far away....! :)


I miss that innocence..that wittiness..the cute smile which even the eyes reflected..! 
Life followed some simple rules...Good and Bad were so well defined.. Good was when you helped others..Bad was when you tried to cheat or lie...School & homework were the only big tasks for the day..a fixed routine followed automatically..time to eat, time to play, time to sleep..!


The rules have been modified..life has changed...a lot! Sometimes I wish I was a little kid again..when ignorance was justified..mistakes were easily forgiven and  worrying about my future wasn't my responsibility at all..! Life was so simple back then...


There was a time when I wanted to grow up quickly..to do all that which I couldn't being a kid..
Now, I miss those precious old days....
