The Music of Life

The most difficult thing in life is to search yourself and once you have found the person, its even more difficult to know what bringeth him on this planet. The essence of life is to do what makes you happy, but generally, we spend most of our lives trying to make ourselves happy with what we do. Chasing happiness consumes most of our childhood and youth and it is in stillness of the old age that we list the things that we had always wanted to do but never got the time and opportunity to pursue them.

Basically, career, money, relationships, love, faith-all become important because they seek to serve certain purposes in our lives. They are never the end as one assumes them to be, but just a means towards a higher end. And it is this higher end that brings peace, satisfaction and fulfillment in life.

Deep down in your thoughts, in the most unruffled hour of the night, if you close your eyes and imagine parking yourself on the ocean bed, with strikingly beautiful yet peaceful life forms surrounding you, you would feel that there is much more to us. The experience in the thought itself is so pleasing. Its more like a music, the music that nobody but only you can hear, the music of life. Happiness comes to be felt slowly thereafter.

Nobody can deny that if there is one thing that brings you closer to yourself and is the easiest way of self attainment, its music. When you listen, you know that there is something inside; desire, frustration, aggression, envy; that finds expression in your body language, especially when you groove to the rhythm. Dancing is one such medium that blends your soul perfectly into your body. Infact there comes a time, when the lyrics lose their meaning, and what remains is the rhythm and you. That is when you start feeling your real self. That is when you sway with the wind, smile with the lilies and fly with the eagles spreading your wings on top of the world. That is when every single drop of sweat slides down your body drenching you with the freedom of expression. That is when you find yourself. I hear that, so very often. Sitting in the porch, when a distant music tickles your ears, you feel like breaking free and devolving in the feeling itself. Its hard to let yourself go and not to let go, at the same time.

There are a thousand things that sever your wings and limit your flight to your ownself. The best that we can do is to give ourselves chances of exploring and realizing ourselves. Dancing is one medium that brings me happiness, there are many others and your heart knows what is right for you.. I remember having read somewhere that feelings become knowledge through thought. And that thought should come over soon in life lest its too late. Love yourself n live life, don’t just spend it..
