She Is My Music

Source

She was one heck of a girl for me. She was there when I needed someone most in my life. She understands me and me respects me for what I am. If you have a partner who understands you, respects you, trusts you and pledges to be with you whatever the situation is then I bet you my friend, you got a keeper.

It was December and that was when I first heard the music, the music of love. It was so complicated and yet so neat. It seemed as if I am listening to the most perfect note of my life. She was the melody that I would play all my life.

I have seen my friends getting in relationship and ruining precious years of their lives. They misunderstand the alarm of danger to music of life. Through her, life speaks to you and for me it was not just speaking to me, it was singing to me. I knew that chords have been struck and song has been made for life.

It is not that we had never hit wrong notes in life. There were times when we got stuck in some really gross situations. But whenever we got stuck or felt unsure, we searched for the right notes. We realigned our lives and realigned ourselves to come out better and stronger then we were.

Like how music can help you distress you and make you forget everything the same way she made me forget all my worries, disappointments. She just like music guided my mood. She became reflection of my emotions and I became hers. We liked not only each other’s company, each other’s words but we liked each other’s silence too. We both knew what we valued and our conversations helped us in knowing each other better. We disagree and debate but we never disapprove each other’s right to have an opinion. We respect each other’s views.

 I know there was a time when we reached to the point as if we were going to break apart but then something magical happened. She called me and started reading a letter that I sent her whiles we were only two months old in the relationship. I listened to her and as the letter finished we disconnected calls from our end and did not speak for two straight days and then came the third day. There it was she and me sitting face to face at favorite table in a local coffee shop with the same pastry and same coffee that we ordered when we first visited that place.

When I look back, I notice how far we have come and how smoothly those years have gone past. The life was playing with a perfect soothe background music and we walked together the whole time hand in hand.

She is the music of my life and a song that I hum all the time.

A Positive Impact

What it is like to get out of your normal routine life and having impact on someone’s life? Is it something too much to ask for from someone? I guess we all are capable of doing something good and motivate individuals.

There are many incidents in life that make us what we are today. We as human beings constantly learn from situations and people. This attitude to attitude is embedded deep into our genes. This hunger to learn has what made us successful and helped us survive ages while many other beings perished. I just feel that whenever someone learns from me they shouldn’t regret that.

Whenever you walk out of the door you should keep one thing in mind that there is someone who is watching you and you should motivate him/her with your actions. If you are having an impact on someone’s life it is better to make it a good one.

When you walk on the road and see a person help other, it fills your heart with happiness. It motivates you indulge in the same act. What it is about that action that motivates you? Do you know name of those individuals? How those strangers are having impact on you? We as human beings are here to help not just other human beings but all living beings.

I was going through job training in Mysore for the IT Company I am working in and there was my one friend from whom I learned how to be happy. He was a hard working and jovial. He couldn’t pass the training and got terminated but still he remained calm. I know he was upset and disappointed but the way he handled himself and presented it to others, gave hope to others too who got terminated. It was because of him that everyone who got terminated picked up themselves. He was having impact on life of so many individuals although he was clueless about his.

He was not doing it intentionally and never did he imagine that he was having impact on so many lives at the same time. I guess till date he does not know that he has impacted or have changed ideologies of many. He has brought positive change in all of us and made us all believe that how imperative it is to be positive.

There will be many times in life when you would be having impact on someone’s life and will not know about it. Next time when you act or react keep in mind that there is someone who is watching you and you are having an impact on his life. Always make efforts that whatever the impact you have on someone’s life make it a positive one.

Travel And Explore

Source

Are you among those who love to travel? If yes then this blog is dedicated to you. Traveling is one of those things in life that can truly be referred as fantastico experience. The reason for it has been reiterated not once but many a times but I guess it would be worth reiterating the same through this blog.

Have you ever watched those movies where the protagonist loves to travel or is an avid traveler? How you have felt about that? Does it inspire you to go out of your house and explore the whole world? It does inspire me. Travel is one thing that has always interested me since I was a kid. I haven’t visited many places but I can say one thing for sure that I love it when I travel.

When I travel I feel the momentum of time. I feel as if I am strolling with time at its speed. When I travel I can think about my life and think straight. From the time I board my bus to the time I alight, I can think of all things that have happened in my life and those thoughts are nothing but fantastico for me.

When you travel to a new place you learn a lot. When I say about learning it is not just about learning about a new place or new culture or new people but it is more related to learning about you. The way you respond to the newness or the way you respond to the lifestyle of the new place helps you develop a better understanding of yourself.

I have often heard this statement that individuals who have travelled a lot are more experienced and mature in most cases. It is something that I cannot generalize for everyone but I support the fact that individuals who have travelled more are more ready for life.

What makes those individuals so ready for life? It is the courage to accept change and getting accustomed to it. Wind blowing across your face as you sits next to the window seat in a bus or hot tea at 2:00 AM on deserted railway platform, travel has its own fantastic memories. One of the main reasons why travelling is fantastic is because of the memories that are created. These memories are way different from the ones that you have in your life.

I often planned to explore new places around and out of city to get to know about surroundings in a better way. For me exploring and travelling is something that everyone should indulge in. It makes you feel confident and independent. Traveling is fantastic and awesome in all the aspects.

When I first travelled alone to Mysore I was a little scared but now when I look back, I can without hesitation say that it was one of the finest memories that I have. From then on I have visited few places and with every trip I became a lot more confident and aware.

Travel little and explore a lot. Don’t miss the fantastico experience.

Peppy Pets

Source

How awesome it is to have pets. They are those beings which are always there for you. They are just darlings sitting on your lap and making you forget all your worries. Many a times we act childish and stupid just to irk our non-human friends. How often have you done that when you were with your friends or your family? How often you have done something for which you will not be judged? I guess many of think before act, which is a good thing but if we continue to live in the same way without any emotions then it is utterly wrong. The reason we do all the crazy stuff in front of our non-human friends is just for one simple reason and that is trust. We know that they will not judge us and would always be on our side.

I had a dog named dusty. He was one notorious fellow. He would rip newspapers and would chew off our sandals but still he was our darling. Everyone in our house loved him. I remember one incident when our family went out for a party for two hours and left him alone in the home. When we returned he made an upset face. It took us about half an hour to make him normal. He kept his head low and didn’t look into our eyes. Finally it was his favorite treat that came to the rescue.

Pets are peppy and with them you also feel the same way. They fill you with the same energy that they possess. If you never had a pet then you are surely missing something in your life. People often consider their pets as part of their family and it is for no reason. They fill your heart with joy.

When you come home after a long tiring day and your boss has yelled at you for something and you see your dog running up to you in the same old peppy way and you forget all your tiredness when he comes to you and keep his head on your lap.

You sitting on your chair and feeling bored and suddenly you feeling someone trying to snuggle in and you see it’s your cat. You just cannot get mad at her for it. Pets are someone who cares for you much more than you do for yourself.

Pets are peppy who fill you up with the same peppiness. I remember correctly that my dog used to jump and down in front of my dad when he used to come from office and will not settle down until my dad would pick him up and keep him on his lap and pat him. How good feels it to know that someone is waiting for you to come home and welcomes you with the same affection every time.

Pets are really peppy beings, have one to experience it.

Music- Keep It Original

Source

Music is one of those things which I guess everyone appreciates in some form or the other. What is that about music, which makes it one of the most appreciated things? The answer lies in the simplicity and complexity at the same time. There are various songs that would just seem so simple and their tune flows like a water but the hours that have been invested and the intricate stitching of notes to create that gem is something that is clandestine most of the times.

It is said that music has no language and is independent of borders. It is right because music like any art form is created to appeal to individuals all round the globe. It is not really something that is been created to cater a specific audience. Although people have different choice when it comes to music they like but no one can deny the fact that a lot of effort and thought goes behind that process of creation.

Still I would agree to the fact that pure music is something that is not witnessed quite often and whatever we listen to is a commercialized aspect of it. Blaming those artists for creating music that satiates few specific ears isn’t something I support because it is absolutely normal to supply the music that people demand and make bucks out of it. We need to have respect to all the artists irrespective of whether we like them or not. There is one artist who needs to be reprimanded for his music and that artist is the one who steals music and call it inspiration. Those individuals are nothing but thieves, who make living out of the creativity of others. Being a blogger I know how bad plagiarism is. There are many individuals who just blindly copy the creative capital of someone and post it as their own.

Music being a universal language needs to be kept free from such individuals who do not have a creative nerve. The hard work that goes into creating something can never be compensated by someone who is just blindly copying the ideas.

Music is an awesome way of relaxation. People have accepted that music has such a deep impact on them that their mood depends on the song they listen too. I second their statement that music can change your mood. When I feel restless I just plug in my earphone in mobile and just blast my ears with heavy metal and it helps. I can actually feel better after listening to those songs. In the same way soulful instrumental gives you an insight of yourself. I find it really inspiring to listen to soulful music because it helps me introspect.

I feel that music being such a therapy and so pure and universal, it should be copied or should fall victim of plagiarism. Creativity is for everyone but not for stealing.

Be Peppy Be Happy

Do you have any friend who is a pure bundle of energy? I guess everyone have such kind of friends. They are those individuals who resonate energy. They make even the most trivial of the things interesting with their sheer enthusiasm and energy. It is fun to be with these individuals. I can recall that most of the amazing and interesting memories that I had during my college life was because of those peppy beings. It feels as if they are made of a different material all together. They would bring light to the gloomiest of the settings.

I had one friend who was power house of energy. It is not just about the physical aspect of energy. The way he spoke about the most trivial of the things and making it sound most interesting thing in the world was his quality. You could see individuals opening up to him in no time.

Peppy is more of choice. You can be that peppy being who brings energy to the dull setting and light up the whole place. It is often seen that people who were once enthusiastic and full of energy turning into something they are not.

In recent times a movie was released where the protagonist had these weird side, which he never revealed to anyone. He hid it deep beneath the fake character that he played in his life. He was not acting the way he was but he was acting the way people around him wanted to. It is quite a common phenomenon that we stop ourselves from doing things our own way because of others. Sometimes we care too often about others, about society that we stop caring about ourselves. As that movie suggested, we just become a machine assigned to do a task, without logic, without creativity.

There was a time in childhood, when people used to come up to you and ask what you wanted to be, to which few used to answer doctor, engineer, IAS but very few said dancer, actor, singer, musician. When we used to answer that question, did we really answered it because we wanted to be doctors and engineers or we were just reiterating the things that people around us wanted to say.

Many of the individuals grow up to be nothing but a machine which is performing tasks assigned to it. We miss on the opportunity of being peppy and happy. Sometimes you got to unwind yourself and indulge into activities that you love and fell peppy and happy about it.

Peppy is not something that is reserved for a certain age group but it is an emotion, a feeling you can enjoy at any time of your life. Be peppy and spread the energy.

Music: Art Of Living

Source

What is music? Is it really related to the sound that is generated from the instruments or is it something more?

When I asked individuals about their hobbies, I have often come across this answer from individuals that they love to listen to music and name their favorite artists. For me music is not really something that you listen from great musicians or maestros. I will not deny the fact that the creation of those creative minds is music but it is not just plane sound, which is music.

Have you wondered how your favorite song would sound without all those pauses? How empty would be if the music did not have that elegance of pause, which gives that stability to the changing beats and tunes?

I am very sure that many of you have heard of this phrase “Nature playing its music” or “wind was singing to me”. Is it really something that has been said metaphorically or something that is observed keenly? I bet you cannot deny the fact the nature has its own music and the instrument she uses is just jaw dropping.

On a lazy summer afternoon birds chirping and the wind blowing on the deserted road. What is that sound, isn’t that a melody? If you have ever been on beach and paid attention to the sound of the waves, you could relate to the music I am talking about. A music that is not dependent on the instruments but a music that has beauty, which is not repeating itself, that is not created just to soothe few ears.

A kid laughing, wind blowing, lustful whisper and many more happenings of life can be music. Rustle of leaves on an old boulevard to honking of cars in a traffic jam, everything is music.

If the beauty lies in the eyes of the onlooker then music lies in the ears of the listener.

I play guitar and do treat the sound that is generated from it as music but also consider the pause in between the tunes as music. Music is beautiful and truly a stress buster. It gives time to you, to realize and contemplate on your being. For me it is really something in which I can find my reflection. It helps me unwind and let me focus on my being myself. It sets me straight.

As they say music is same everywhere because it has no language, no borders and no appearance of its own. You cannot differentiate between music as rich or poor or black or white. It is universal. If you ask me perfect definition of democracy then it has to be music because music is for everyone and anyone can contribute to it.

Music not only makes me happy, but it can also make sad, it can also scare me and it can also make me violent because music to me is emotion. Emotion that spreads without medium.
