Life is a long, wondrous and continuous introduction to yourself.

The act of creation — it leads me to unknown places. Only to make me realize that all was known, always. And yet, I live every day with the hope that I’ll explore, create and grow into someone new. Because what’s life if not a long, wondrous and continuous introduction to yourself.

In this journey, music lives by my side. I find melody in my writing, and a lot of writing in my melodies. Sometimes, I hear songs in the bubbles of boiling tamarind water. Or in the stroke of red paint over the canvas. Or in the giggles of a child after a good joke. Tunes find their way even into my boredom, curiosity and the thoughts in between. And a rhythm taps into my sorrow, so it can take the leap to laughter.

Such is music. Such is life — yours and mine.

Hello!

Achievements and Celebrations

Happiness derived from celebration which in turn is a consequence of a relative achievement will always be hollow.
(what i also call an ego-boosting sensation)

Setting personal landmarks is a big mis-calculation because what we know is limited and keeps growing. May be stretching landmarks or keeping them dynamic will make more sense.

Having thrived on competition for 80% of my spent life and being relatively successful , i today stand at a position to know that competition is rather a ruining entity as it always keeps us aware of relativity and although it might add to a lot of un-conscious growth, it still largely would limit a conscious experience of knowledge and happiness!

Achievement as i understand today, should be a peripheral to a conscious existence, the materialistic or a survival inducing reward of a race to learn and understand.

Ofcourse, this chapter is very subjective. But then, to all their own :)
