Desperation- Thy Name is “Himesh Reshamiya”

No, what you understood is totally different from what I will present here!!!

I baptize Himesh as a Desperate person not because he is trying his hands on all sorts of fields to claim his fame instead it is for the expression in most of his songs. Amongst all the recent music directors- his songs have the highest bass of desperation. Whether it is “Dekhoon tujhe to pyar aye”, “Tadap tadap tadap ho tum”, “Loneliness is killing everyone”, “Aashiq Banaye”- all have element of desperation.

We all are desperate for one thing or another- whether it is love/lust/acceptance and his songs bring out the feelings in best manner. The saucy beats which marinate the lyrics are the essence of his musical melodrama. Garnished with the non-hackneyed voice of Himesh- these songs become point of contention for one reason or another.

Maintaining that he is not my favorite vocalist – I still look up to his songs and experience those hidden feelings to satisfy the craving soul. Try and experience it yourself- some of his songs will grow on you J

Growth

What is growth- hey- we are not talking about organic and inorganic growth- we are touching upon growth not as professional but somewhat personal.

Have we ever thought that we grow in someone’s company? But how does one grow in other’s company?

The fragrance of someone else beautifies our world. It’s about learning how to iron out the differences and keeping common stakes at a premium. While individual interests persist- desire for others happiness never succumbs. You grow by making other’s style a part of your own style/ habits and nuances. When their interests start interesting you, their dislikes become things you despise- you have actually grown with each other. It surely does not mean getting colored in someone else’s color- it’s just a depiction of likeability, compatibility, warmth and love.

True isn’t it?

Matterz

“People who matter - are here and people who are not here- never mattered”.

Such a simple phrase which describes the essence of life. It emulates a sense of accomplishment of beatitude because you have been able to secure relationships who are there through your thick and thin. It displays the zenith of relationship.

Where does all the people management go now? All the fundas go futile. People who love you will stay with you in spite of your good/bad deeds. They love you person not your actions. It is biggest achievement if your coterie is as strong as your beliefs. The world is a waste if you have those people around- who make life worth living. Surrounded by a herd a people wearing masks of congeniality- you will never be able to make up relationships which are trustworthy. Don’t let too many cooks spoil the broth- simple and restricted becomes the key word.

This goes as a word of gratitude to all those who made my year cherishable. Travelling long distances both literally and through times – you have made life a beautiful garden.

You all only matter and to the world- I give a damn!!!

Undo- A difficult button to press

Someone sometime ago commented that “The most difficult thing to do is to undo something. Its easier said than done- especially when it is about breaking something you have built. Moving on from people -in whom you have invested/ willingly given your time/ attention/respect/ loyalty and of course part of your life. And what I am referring to is not just a case of broken relationships in fact many such similar cases. These decisions are hardest to take- the ones that are not just linked to your life but also of many more people around. Undoing something is all about erasing them from your life- erasing their significance/ their feel/ their control on your life. Wiping all the good/bad memories associated taxes you mentally and physically. They leave you bereaved. These decisions are like albatross around your neck- you delay taking them and become turtle like- trying to avoid and letting decisions happen themselves. It has more to do with letting yourself go down – somewhere, where you don’t belong.

Wishing strength to all those who are going through the same especially my near and dear ones who are testing their patience/ emotions at such times of crisis.

Vibrance

 

A word which in itself defines a state of life. We all at different point of time have different sort of exuberance.  

A kid carries the vibrance of innocousness. A teenager presents life/dilemmas. As we move into the next quarter of life- we experience the flamboyance of life filled with spirit and desire to conquer the world. Then comes late thirties and early forties with rigor of maturity and sensibility. We phase out to later stage filled with indifference yet repulsion to today’s ways.

My recent visit to a pronounced café, which was teeming with youngsters in their prime made me realize how infectious is their sense of life. How different has life become with its developments. When I go back and compare my own self  to this young bunch- I am at loss of words. The confidence they exude, the awareness they have, the callousness at this tender age has lots to say about the kind of exuberance they have.

Was it this energy which impressed me. Probably yes, probably no!!

Yes because they continue to brim with confidence, no because of  the toll development has taken on their psyche. Have they become too mature and hopped into the next decade of life or has life thrust too much upon them?

Still don’t know the answer but superficiality and pretense also comes side by side.

Point to ponder- probably Yes!!
