I Cried! Don't tell anyone.

Once i was watching a movie with my Grand Father and voila! i saw tears in his eyes. I was in college then. I didn't know how to react. I had an astonished look. He was a tough guy but my image of him has taken a dent (although, a very small one). For a long time, i have wondered how one would get so moved by a movie? It was just a matter of time, i found my answer.

One winter evening, I was watching "Taare Zameen Par" and i'm already feeling bad for that little guy and then in the climax - a painting competition with a background song. The moment this little fellow peeks in to Amir's pic, it gets revealed with a big bang background music. i was like, WOW! In fact that revealing moment, lyrics and the background music gave me hard time suppressing my tears and i was almost choking. I don't know if i would ever describe how i felt at that time. Atleast since then i stopped making fun of people who gets emotional while watching a movie.

Recently "Aruvi" has made me so emotional, i would have sobbed like a kid if i was watching that alone. Nevertheless, my wife noted.

Nomadic Inner Life

I let my mind wander wherever it wants — into places judged right or wrong, meaningful or meaningless. Rules have never bound me; it’s not that I reject them, I simply lack the energy or will to follow them. Laziness, perhaps, but also a quiet indifference. Whether it’s daily rituals like pooja or even personal hygiene, I never gave them much importance. Pain or discomfort I endure until it becomes unbearable, only then do I seek help. I accept such things as karma rather than reshaping my lifestyle. I am reckless with myself, not out of rebellion but out of carelessness. I’ve never found a compelling reason to change. When I see organized, disciplined people, I feel happiness for them and a deep respect. Yet I never feel inspired to follow their path. I simply don’t care enough. Maybe some hidden trauma shaped this indifference, dulling my sense of urgency toward life. Or maybe this is just who I am — a wanderer of mind and habit, respecting order but never seeking to own it. But...

When i work, often i leave the choice of music to Youtube and now i'm stuck with this song. While everything sounds so soothing in Arijit's voice, it is the lyric that caught my attention. Agar Ishq Se Hai Mila, Phir Dard Se Kya Gila Is Dard Mein Zindagi Khush-haal Hai, Yeh Dooriyaan Filhaal Hain Writing is an art!

BIKSHAIPATHIRAM by IIlaiyaraja

Was listening to IIlaiyaraja 's Ramana Malai and got addicted to the tune of "BIKSHAIPATHIRAM". Could understand the meaning of the first few lines. With the help of a Tamil friend, could get the translation of the song. Blessed! Toggle Translation BIKSHAIPATHIRAM - this literally means the vessel which the beggars use for begging.... BIKSHAIPATHIRAM ENTHI VANTHAEN ...AYYANE EN AYYANE I have come carrying the bikshapathiram .. ayyane .. ayyane... ( it can be termed as guru .. father... ) PINDAM ENUM ELUMBODU SATHAI NARAMBU UTHIRAMUM ADANGIYA UDANMBENUM BIKSHAIPATHIRAM ENTHI VANTHAEN ...AYYANE EN AYYANE Carrying the body with bones nerves muscles blood as bikshapathiram ... I have come carrying the bikshapathiram .. ayyane .. ayyane... BIKSHAIPATHIRAM ENTHI VANTHAEN ...AYYANE EN AYYANE AMMAIYUM APPANUM THANTHATHA... is that bikshapathiram given by mom & dad ? ILLAI AADHIYIN VALVINAI SOOZHTHATHA or it is cause from the deeds of our roots?...
