We all have a
true love within our hearts which we cherish forever. It can be a person, place
or any activity. And I believe we can have more than one true love, as it is in
my case. My day starts and ends with
them. They are my true companions.
One of them is
music; a lyrical, soothing song makes my day joyful. I love listening to all
kind of music be it Ghazals, religious/ spiritual songs, old Bollywood numbers
or latest chart-busters. I don’t have any special preference when it come to
music, I even listen to regional songs from Himanchal, Punjab, Bengal, and even
South Indian songs though words are obviously hard to catch but if chords of melody attract my heart, I make my own lyrics. Music indeed
frees me of all attachment and allures me to a wonderland where I contemplate
my entire life and paint a rosy picture of only love and happiness. I may be sounding foolish or crazy but music
has such an effect on me.
Music has a
great power to boost up my sad, gloomy mood, it encourages me, gives me hope
and faith. My spirits are elevated and inspired with positive emotions and
energy when only music is there to enter my ears. Sound, rhythm, pitch, tempo, melody, harmony
are quite intoxicating for my soul. Music has dynamism and power to alleviate
all my pain and sorrow. It is my ultimate true love.
My other true
love is sleeping and lazing around. I find it really relaxing where you just
chill and sleep with no worries and deadlines approaching. Though times have changed now, daily household
chores, commuting to office, various approaching deadlines, hardly leaves time
for even minimum requirement of 6-7 hours of sleep a day. Though not as
frequently as it used to be long back I still make out time for this love of
mine amidst my busy life.
Ah! Music and sleep nothing like that in life! :)
