Who’s she!

If you ever feel confused
With a focused desire of getting out of it
Meet her
Smile at her
Look at her
And talk to her
She may not know the reason behind the conversation
She may not know you at all
But she has a strong sense of intuition
And she’ll know that you’re looking for an answer
And she knows that answers are a rare commodity
Among the chaotic existence of us
So, she’ll listen to you
Before telling you her views
And she’ll be on point
Bang on
Because she just doesn’t speak
She feels the emotions
The vibes
And then speaks from her heart
Her suggestions may not guide you instantly
But they’ll definitely help you
Look beyond the confusion
She won’t get anything out of it
But you’ll definitely be a better person
Post the conversation
And you have to somehow let her know
That you appreciate her time and effort
Or else she won’t ever know
What it meant for you to be not confused
What her help meant to you
How leading by example is so beautiful
And she does all the beautiful things beautifully

P.S.: This is a special dedication to a good friend of mine. Today’s song is It’s You by Ali Gatie. Have a great September! I am going to Orissa next week for Dusshera and let’s hope it’ll be a good time. I make sure to go to my hometown every year this time.

That night

There’s always a beginning

The pilot

Chapter 101

And that’s why there was that night

Our first together as friends

Just introduced that same day

Talking in syllables

Trying not to sound interested

Cutting the conversations midway

And then it came

The wise evening

With its cool breeze and drizzle

The weather turned class

The tension faded

Conversations became longer

Longer became the day

Food was shared

And so were many other things

Like favorite color, movie, books

The more the time passed

The more close we became

And soon the night fell on us

Our other friends

Receded to their beds

But we weren’t tried

We wanted to share more and discuss more

We didn’t want that day to finish so soon

And the night was young

And so were her eyes, her lips

Her curly hair swaying our her face

I so wanted to brush them aside

But I was scared

Maybe I will face yet another rejection in life

But then she came near

And hold my hand

And arms in arms

We walked down the road

She in her bubbly mood

Moving her head to and fro

Me smiling silently

Thinking where was she for so many years

But, it all didn’t matter

Because now we were together

I am grateful for that night

Which got us so closer

And also for the friends

Which got us introduced

And this is how that beautiful night

Is still young in both our hearts ❤

P.S.: As you know, I got a YouTube channel where I share my travel/motivation talks. You can subscribe to the channel @ Darshith Badiyani. Today’s song is Get Lucky of  Daft Punk. How is your September going on? I am going to Gujarat from 22nd Sept to 2nd October. If you’re there and want to meet, please do let me know. Yo! Peace out! 😉

Life changing event

Show me one person in this world who do not want to travel to a different time period and I will praise the lad and do nothing else 😛

At least, most of us would have thought of traveling to a different time period and go to that particular time to meet somebody or to see the discovery of something eventful. Something life changing for Earth. I also have the same wishes. Wishes seldom come true if you don’t give your hard work and dedication to it. You need to give these as inputs so that they will be processed and you’ll be shown the output.

“Easier said than done” is such an apt proverb to describe the above. We all can give suggestions and our point of views(POVs) but those may not be correct for others.

Similarly, I was in a discussion today with a close friend of mine(let’s name him Alex)about the events that changed the course of life on Earth. He said that it has to be World War 2. And for a brief period of time, I believed him. All the words and images from our class 8 History book of Hiroshima & Nagasaki along with the destruction faced by millions of people rushed into my mind. What can be more crucial than this historical destruction faced by humans?

There was some silence & I thought about what else can be that life changing. And I said, “What you said about the WW2 is spot on but that was a loss. It was negative. It was life changing for many millions, yes! But the thing which has a positive impact is always more powerful & has an upper hand on the things which are negative.”

He said, “Like what? Positive in what sense?”

I was not sure what I was gonna say but I just blabbered, “There are 2 worlds. One, what we see. Two, what we wanna see. What we see is the reality. Many others have an impact on it. It is the least self-controlled world out there. To survive, WE HAVE to keep on adjusting from day 1 till the last day. It doesn’t adjust to our needs, we have to do the adjustment. Always.”

Alex listened & I continued, “About the second world, it’s never the same. It’s always changing. It takes new shape & new form based on our present thoughts. Present mood. It’s the imaginary world. Think of ‘Inception’ movie. They had imaginary world too. Just like that but we don’t have to be asleep to visualize that. We just need to close our eyes and the world will take shape as per our mood.”

My friend, who was wearing a confused look on his face stammered, “So so so.. What? How is this life changing for EARTH”

Having a wry smile on my lips, I said triumphantly, “This imagination, escape from reality, for the most beautiful world is life changing for an individual. He time travels. He goes to a far off place by staying in reality. Imagination makes it possible. One doesn’t need a time machine to travel to places. Books, movies and discussion like this make it possible. With imagination, we can go in the past or in the future just like time traveling. In time travel, you cannot be in multiple time phases, you either are in the past or in the future. But imagination has an upper hand and that’s because we can be in multiple time phases. While imagining, we are mentally in the past or the future but physically we are in the present. And that is the answer to your question. If we can TRY to match our imaginative world with the reality. It is life changing. This is such a process that has to be done on an individual level and then it can be worldwide. Possible?”

“I would definitely praise your thinking and I can almost agree to it but there are no facts to support it & hence I would not be totally IN for your idea.” said Alex, nodding.

“I definitely require your belief to work with but then I also need to be sure that I can work with my thoughts and I think, I can. So this is life changing for me. This conversation was most definitely. But now I am gonna try to make my reality & imagination match & hand you your facts to think upon.”

Alex said proudly, “OK! I will be waiting for that day because it will be a double achievement for me because of the facts I will receive and the success you’ll achieve. I have a request for you, though. Do not stop imagination after reaching there once.”

I said jokingly, “Don’t worry, my friend. After reaching, may be my imagination will show me a new different world. Then it’ll be time to achieve that.”

“So there is no need for a time machine now,” joked my friend, “none whatsoever.”

And I gave him a thumbs up and we went to the nearest coffee shop to have his favorite cappuccino so that if not satisfied, he can imagine it and make it more perfect as per his imagination(a competition to Starbucks 😉 ).

Perfect combo

Moustache: A person is a dude if he has a moustache. I am the sign of his manliness.

Beard: Don’t over think, Mr Moustache. A normal person can have a moustache and still won’t be a dude. For being a dude, he needs to have a beard. Trimmed, well-maintained beard. I magnify the aura of the dude multiple times & I can survive without you too.

Moustache: I agree with you surviving without me but if a person, who wants to be a dude and wants to grow a beard, has to have a moustache first. I am mandatory. I am the foundation and the base. You matter because I matter.

Beard: Now I don’t agree with you there. Seriously? You think that. You, of all people. That’s the lousiest thing I have heard from you and remember, we have been partners since the beginning of time. We used to get much time with each other in the beginning during stone age and when then the evolution started.

Moustache *being emotional*: Yes, I agree. Those were the golden days. We used to be important and mattered to the people. Nowadays we’re just there for style. There is no stability too. One day I am there and girls are wanting to smell me & dwell with me and the next day I am gone. Silly people.

Beard *joining the party*: I have to agree with you. These people are just so unstable. Sometimes they shave me all, sometimes they trim me, sometimes make me a goatee or a french cut. They play with me as if I am a toy. Such a nuisance cannot be tolerated anymore.

Moustache: I feel you, man. Let’s make sure that we won’t tolerate such torture from these people and grow uneven and crazily no matter how much they try to make it even or pay bucks to hair specialist to keep us within boundaries. We are the ones who are awesome and it’s us who help guys look awesome.

 

Some of the many styles

 

P.S.: Today’s pick is I want it that way of Backstreet boys(my favorite band) in acoustic version sung by Boyce Avenue ❤
