Back to blogging!
So, here I am racking my non existant brain thinking, what should I write about, what should I write about, when the topic literally floats through my head.
So, me racking my brains does not necessarily mean that I have devoted my entire concentration mediating it. Rather it means that, in between fits of distraction, I make my mind wander through the fog that is the 'issue in question', whatever that may be.
The process of mediating leads me to the path breaking conclusion that when the fog lifts, my mind will still be blank! Aah, I can see a few smirks, freeze it right there. My thought process might look exactly like my expression at many a time- absolutely vacant, but yet, at many of these moments, my mind is experiencing a euphoric sensation of wonder contemplating a strain of melody. So my dear friends I take a decision to write about something that has become innate in me- Music.
Many a time, we all think that such and such a thing is an extension of our personality. In my case, its a part of it. From as far back as I can remember, I have always quenched a part of my creative thirst in the sea of music. This, however, does not necessarily mean that I understood the opportunities to further my musical journey. As a kid, I repelled efforts on the parts of my elders to hone my musical sense. While I rejected organized musical teaching, I tried to grasp whatever I could. The result is a passion for music that is deep seated.
Coming to think of it, music is one of the things in my life I have displayed contstant commitment towards and its something I seek to better with every passing day. I dont think I have displayed an abiding interest to anything else in my life, at least not to the extent to which it is evident in my music. Doesn't say much for me, but then it is an inescaable fact. So without any further ado, let me list some of my favourite songs. Oh C'mon!If you've gotten this far, you can read a bit more!!!!
