Finished watching this movie Khamosh paani and I have a lot of thinking to do for a few days...nothing radical thinking ...nothing thats going to change the world....plane thinking ...like turbulations in water after throwing the stone...
'Mainu ta Aisha chahi aaj bhi yaad hai, par ki fayada...onnu yaad rakahn te ganthea da bhai te ahi badal jayega....(I remember aunt aisha very well but whats the use...remembering her doesn't change the price of onions)...this is what a character said about the main protagonist of the movie in closing remarks.
So brutally true yet truth nevertheless....a cliche'ed question though yet why is the world the way it is....things happened ...people died...innocent people for no reason at all....we forget and it happens again....after a day or two i won't even be thinking about it unless I watch another movie of this sort or read another book...but right now when I am thinking about it ...it kinda hurts..

Chakra in my feet
My parent says I have a chakra in my feet...this chakra they talk about is not some auspicious sign if that is what you are thinking. This Chakra refers to my tendency of being constantly on move....I love traveling...I dont mind changing places...seeing new things ...meeting new people...learning new things...
Anyways the reason I brought it up is that this love of travel doesnt come for free ...it comes at a cost ...infact it comes at a very good cost and I often hear these remarks about the sanity(or insanity) of these expenses. Remarks come from all side like friends , families, acquaintences ...The question arise that in a society where the moment you finish education and start working you must start saving for your daughter's dowry, your son's school donation, a 2 bhk house and a second hand luxury car how do you justify your need to see the world, experience things you always dreamt of.
Yes there is a way to turn a deaf ear to all this and carry on but you still cant ignore daughter's dowry, son's school donation, a 2 bhk house and a second hand luxury car.
Alright lets say one can manage the monetary part of it but you still have to justify your act to the people you care about.
If you ask me my stupid but honest to God answer is that down the line when i turn 60 (If i live that long) and i sit on a rocking armchair i want to have a lot to reminisce about...I must say I want to have a lot of important things to reminisce about....something like 'Been there seen that all' kind of feeling. I realize that while dying I would have a list of things which I would wish I could have done but I want that list to be as small as possible....

'The Kiss'
When your lips melted on mine
Everything froze and,
the moment was electrified
Our bodies formed,
a magical alloy in that moment
The union of our lips,
begot a spark
A spark which illuminated every corner of my heart
Its been ages since our lips parted physically but,
in that electrifying moment
When they melted on my lips
They left their soul there
My lips are still afire
My heart is still glowing

They left their soul there
My lips are still afire
My heart is still glowing
