Serendipity.....

Sometimes you plan some things to minute details but they do not turn out as you want them to be and sometimes it so happens that something happens out of sheer coincidence. As a matter of fact that’s what is happening with me these days.....It has been a concoction of feelings being served to me by life in the days going on…. My feelings are taking an errand between happiness and sorrows…. One moment makes me somber and the next takes me on a journey of eternal bliss…….

Some erratic incidents leave me perplexed…. This morning when I woke up….I had a strange feeling….When I squinted in the mirror….I saw something lurking around in my eye….It was a drop of tear which made its way through my cheeks to the ground leaving me with the memories of the dream I had…..I don’t exactly remember what it was composed of but it was about the iniquities of life…..

I was pensive about the topic last night that why is it that some people who have never hurt anyone get hurt instead…and the one’s who hurt leave unscathed…….but another thing I noticed about the former personalities is that they have certain patina of charisma attached to their personality which helps them to overcome all the difficulties and still help people without an expectation of a reward…….

Ohh…I turned from the subject I was on and that being the coincidences that occur in life….I never gave a thought to composing songs throughout my life…. But it so happened to me when I was walking my way back from the office to the hostel after a hectic schedule on one of my summer training day….suddenly I saw a couple chatting around in a corner and voila!!!…..I got the first words of my first song...Similarly…when I was about to go to sleep last night…..I got something going on in my mind…..And I got something to murmur in the sleep and in a minutes time I came out with my 13th song…..I had packed my laptop before going to sleep as usual….suddenly I woke up and recorded the song on it so that I wont forget it in the morning….

And it so happened that I was working on my resume that Rex came to my room saying that he has learnt some chords of a film song……He is also in the process of learning guitar…..I listened to what he played and made him hear my new song….and asked him whether he would be able to play guitar for the same….he was a bit reluctant but then he tried and got it…..We recorded the song…..It goes like this:

“Yaadein teri Yaadein,
Aksar mujhe yaad aati hain
Dil ko mere tadpaati hain….
Tu bhi dekh ja ek baar….
Kya hua mera haal….
Tere bina….tere bina”

And the song looks professional though the guitar is being played by a Rex who terms himself a novice guitarist and I being one in the field of writing and composing….I think that is what is called as serendipity…….
