"Bachpan"

Palak jhapakte dekho
kese waqt palat ye jata hai....
mere bachpan ka mere aaj se ik tuta tuta naata hai.

girte padte jab bachpan me ghutne tuta karte the....
sar par ghar uthakar hum zor zor se rote the.
par ghutno ka wo dard bda kam nazar ab ata h...
jab dil tute ya sapna koi tut mera jata hai.

kaisi ajab ye zindagi hai..
socho to man muskata hai...
jab dard na tha to aansu mere sath bada nibhate...
ab dard me hain hum to ik aansu bhi ruswa kar jata hai.

bas phulo se the rishte naate....
kaanto se hum darte the.
apne ghar ki phulwari ki badi hifazat karte the
bade hue to bat smjh me ab ja kar k aayi hai ki
phulo ke chubhne ka dard kanto se zada satata hai.

itni bate thi karne ko...
par shabd bade kam aate the.
ab shabd sare sikh liye jab...
samajh wo hi nahin pate hain...
jo kehte the tera tutlana bhi samajh me humko ata hai....

choti si thi mutthi fir bhi kitna kch ajata tha....
ab bade ho gaye hath to pakad me kuch ni ata hai....

Palak jhapakte dekho
kese waqt palat ye jata hai....
mere bachpan ka mere aaj se ik tuta tuta naata hai.

-Aayushi Kapoor

Life is a resonance of extremes

Life is a resonance of extremes

A continuous low note or a higher one can create sound but not music, because music can only be created by resonance of extreme notes...music is bliss..a reinforced frequency produced by overlapping of different sound frequencies....ans so is life.

The psycho-social equilibrium, that we commonly call as life, can only be attained by successful overlapping of its different frequencies, which are happiness, sorrow, joy, pain, loneliness, togetherness, ups and downs, thick and thin....if we stick to any one of the above frequencies, high or low, life loses its meaning. There has to be a constructive overlapping of different emotions, different reactions, different thoughts, different ideas to compose the music of life.

No person has ever born on this earth who hasn't faced any adversities of life. Each one of us have felt one or the other pain. people have seen separation from their loved ones, greatest reason being death. people have seen hunger, poverty. There are orphans. there are people without homes, unemployed, penniless. But even than life has so much for them too. even the beggars smile. they don't have homes, but they light diyas on footpaths on Diwali.They have seen every star break in night sky, but they don't make wishes,may be they've left them for us.  They know the taste of the most miraculous liquid on this earth, that is water. They know the warmth of a torn blanket on a cold winter night. They have felt the ecstasy of the morning dew, they know how to catch rainbows. And as long as they know this, life will continue to propagate because a perfect resonance has occurred between all the high and low notes. 

The most beautiful music is hence produced.............
