My philosophy

I read a blog entry from one of my good friend which is about some best moments of your past and can you live them again.If you want to read here's the link to her blog.The title is "Can i live them back"
http://www.shrutigautam.blogspot.com/

After reading following thoughts came to my mind.......


Can I live them back..???…actually we do live them back when one is sitting alone and remembering those beautiful days....a smile comes across his face and then for a moment everything around is just lost and we r in the past..living some most beautiful moments of our life..i think that’s why there’s such a craze of pics with your friends...and that’s why everybody just rushes for the slam book when friends part... because through them he can again remember these moments and live them even for a small time…and after these memories when you are back in present everything seems beautiful to you...you hear the voice of nightingale around you..even your ugly neighbor looks like Katrina to you..sound of your crying nephew seems like music of a.r. rahman....that’s why I believe, songs that generates nostalgia e.g. summer of 69,woh kagaz ki kashti are loved so much because they take you through your best times and make you happy.

But there is a strange thing. when one is living these moments many times he does not realize these r my best days…he is so engrossed in the small problems that he fails to see larger picture…it’s same as when you are in the middle of the mess you just try to get out of it by finding the way out of it but after some time when moment has passed away you are able to see it from the top(guys try to imagine a bit....) and then it seems very beautiful to you; the frame; the complex beautiful creation of god ; and you realize the beauty of life is in living these moments only and not just in getting out of it and achieving the ultimate result. That’s why I say life looks beautiful in retrospection because you see it from top.

hey, it's true actually....
when u're living a moment you rarely get to realize the hidden beauty and value there...
but it's only later that you realize that it was probably the most beautiful moment that just went off.....
too nicely put vaibhav...
happy writing....

Well Mr vaibhav, a good one !
I must im impressed by your simplicity in just bringing out the thought (or process) which every single prerson lives with but never brings it open bcos it sounds too emotional and weak.

But this is what life teaches you. Evry moment in your life you are learning and once you fully realize and experience a full situation (problems,success,achievement...etc) the whole experience of the process becomes a beautiful moment.

But if there is no fear of failure or their is no frustration/anger/loss, then this moments would become very dull and we would not have beautiful memories of past to live with.

IS IT?

Retrospection- the word although very simple , but the meaning is deeeeeeeeep.One forgets the current pains when he/she runs through retro(as a song says.."dard me bhi yeh lab muskuraa jaate hai ...beetein lamhe hume jab bhi yaad aate hai").
The feeling is so beautiful that u re-live some of the best moments of ur life, n then again gonna back.But as time is one thing that evryone has to bow to.The purani jeans,the kagaz ki kashti,the college days,the summer of 69 r thus cherished n will always be.

Vaibhav u have done a gr8 gr8 thing by starting a blog.
I'll always be grateful to u for the same(reasons not mentioned,but u'll get to know). Aur bhai woh tutions waale idea me ek aur baar gaur kar le[;)]

luv
Khandoo
