I had actually listened to this song before but i was in the midst of doing something else, so i didn’t quite tune in. Fortunately, i listened in today and i am glad i did :) . A beautiful rendition of the Electric Sitar and what a wonderful way to start this Diwali! BTW, the song is called “Priority” and it is by “Niladri Kumar

For the last few days, I really no inspiration/thoughts to write. I have reasons to write and I do want to write a poem, but somehow the thought process (or as i call it, the feel) is not happening. I dont know

As soon as i entered the house, a strange silence fell over me. It was as if i had become dumb all of a sudden. Nothing could prepare me for what i witnessed. Emotions were mixed and i simply did not know how to react.

It all started like as usual. A quick shower, a quick bite and race to the office before the early morning rush settled in. Just like everyday, i greeted him via a text message.
But today was a little bit different. He did not respond immediately like how he always does. I assumed he would be driving so the delay.

As i waited for his reply, i gradually settled down to the day’s work. I work in a very busy environment where every second counts and the boss watches like an eagle ready to pounce on the moment someone relaxes. As I started work, my mind kept wandering to the missing text message that should have been here almost an hour ago.

I am sucker for good music. In-fact music is one of my past times. When I am bored, angry, sad or happy, music is an integral part of me. I would even go to the extent of calling it as one of the best stress reliever (at-least personally). I listen to a lot of songs mostly alternative rock, electronic/dance, rock/metal and more…

Rather than creating a list of my favorite songs, I decided to take it one step further and create a site around the songs that I like and listen to regularly Big Grin.

So, without much boring talk, here it is: The Best Music Videos Party

I have just now started adding the songs to it, so there is not much. But soon, I should have most of my favorite songs in there. And if you want to add yours to the site, feel free to do so.SmileOpen-mouthed

You see, whenever Diwali is round the corner, my mind automatically makes me a kid once again. Its not about the sweets or the hyped up programs on the television. Its simply the firecrackers Wink.  How much ever everyone talks about pollution (noise and smoke), I simply turn a deaf ear to that and get quite excited about bursting crackers.

Even when I was a kid, bursting crackers always excited me. And when I had to leave India for my masters in England, one thing I still missed was the crackers part. The food, the parties and people were all there. But it was simply the inability to fire-up a 10000 wala cracker that played the spoilsport SadConfused.

This is going to be my third year since my return to Chennai and I am already excited about Diwali PartyPartyDrooling.

The last few days has been kind of mixed in many ways. Right when I thought I shall start writing once again, my imagination and to an extent the little brain I had did the unthinkable. All the ideas and thoughts that were swarming inside just disappeared after a good night’s sleep.

It was as if my mind just became blank or as I am saying to myself, clear. No reason and absolutely no bloody excuse why this happened. So I did a quick search on big G and the solution was to keep writing more!

Ok, I have no idea what to write and I am stuck in-between this world and that world. Clueless of what to write I decided not to worry too much and just concentrate on other things. Even after a bit of shopping, movie and some late night parties nothing came up. Not even a little spark.
