So here is another emotional upheavel that brings me to write my blog. Thats how I started writing, and that is how every art form takes birth. It is nothing but your emotions.
A painting on a wall or an art gallery, a musical composition by a musician on the streets, a photograph by a wanderer, a movie of a dreamer, a wedding dress in a store or a 'tantra' tshirt for that matter, a novel on the shelf, a building worth looking at, an appetizing dish, a piece of pretty furniture in a store, a sculpture, fireworks out a little box, a bouquet of the little flower man, a couple dancing with the best smiles you can ever see, a potter creating magic with his hands a wheel, biker doing his wheellies (if this is the correct spelling), a cricketer on the pitch creating magic with his bat, a bartender mixing alcohol to make us happy high, a hairdresser giving you a makeover look with simple scissor going snip-snip and well a bloggers post on a random internet search.
Its a form of expression, an expression that comes up from our emotions, our feelings, the way we look at things our perception of them. So whats this post about. well, not really just about where art originates from - we all know that by now :) Its creativity, which is not logical or rational its just a form of emotion we create in our mind and let it out in various forms.
I started the blog in 2006 I think and amongst the most irregular ones. And this one after long is away from the facts and realities, from the complexities of the society or my preceptions of those.
The last couple of years have kept me way too busy with day to day work and exploring the world that it somewhere took me away from taking my time out and in some ways took me away from myself. And then there are times you choose to prioritise and we prioritise the things which are "by definition" are the correct choices, for me it was "Work and Career". My head said now is the time and once this is done there will be loads of time to enjoy other things. And well those "other" things actually me with myself. And here I am after 2 gruelling years of work - with myself again. Looking for something new, a new purpose, a new challenge again something new and different.
The title reads life and if you are expecting some deep insights on Life you may or may not get it :) Cos I just named it Life - i sat down to write and this is the first thing that came to my mind and I just put it down. No thought, just a feeling. Feelings at times cannot be explained in a thousand words and at times just a smile says it all. Writers have gone ahead and created the most beautiful expressions to describe feelings of love, affection, happiness, remorse, sorrow, disappointment. And we read these carefully chosed words, in the form of songs, or poems and read them over and over again to feel them.
There is always a way to express yourself to other people, people like me prefer and find it easier to just say things :) Some people I know cant say it so easy, but their actions say it all. The way they look at you, the way they touch you when talking to you - a slight pat on the shoulder, a little tap on your head, a playful punch, a friendly nudge, and a bear hug - all you need to know they care and love.
And by the time I reach this part of the post im lost as to what I started writing. So well lets see, life - it becomes the most difficult thing to deal with and sometimes the easiest thing. Sometime you are lost in thoughts and on what to say next and do next. Sometimes its the magic of thoughts that carried you far far away. Sometimes its the whilrwind of expressing a lot of things at the same time. Sometimes it leaves you behind to figure itself out sometimes you go far too ahead and it catches up with you. Sometimes its contagious and you end up spreading it all over.
Life - its to be lived to the full. To be enjoyed every moment of, to be kept simple and straight, to be smiled on, to have no regrets, to look back and be able to smile at and most importantly - not to give in but to pursue and pursuem to take it till the end, to fight it, cos we are the champions!!! Champions of our life :)
