Star Light-(Part-3)
She just stood there quietly on that beautiful beach expressionless, motionless staring into the blue trying to remember what a beautiful life felt like. It was hidden somewhere deep, deep within her and she's trying to remember but its buried so deep in her she now has forgotten what it felt like. But there was something about that blue waters reflecting the blue skies as she stood on a golden sandy beach mother Gaia, the mother Earth whispered into her ears, "remember", she whispered "remember". But all she could do now was stare at its beauty, silently, motionless, feeling a ripples of emotions running through her forcing her to remember, what it was like to be truly happy. The past few decades, a significant period of her life, an ocean of time in her existence has flashed by like a second. Those years were not kind years for her, those years were not anything close to beautiful, but of horrors she silently holds in herself. Still mentally trapped by a darkness that now is fading slowly and gradually, she cannot remember a time in her life where she felt alive and happy, as it was way so far back in her life that it almost feels like it was a dream. It feels like it was a figment of her imagination or maybe the undying hope she held on for all these years. Time has not been kind to her, it has tested her to her very last cell in her body, she has given and given and given to such an extend that nothing of her exists now .
A strange peace fills her, she feels safe now far away from the abuse, the fights and the emotional vampirism that has been draining the love and light out of her. She is finally free now, free to roam to her hearts content, free to fly away into the blue to rediscover herself, to remember what it was like when she was a small girl full of life, with dreams and ambitions. For the heavens have finally heard her prayers and they are giving her wings back, they are giving her voice back and her life back with the glory she deserves, with the dignity she has earned. A soul that had fought through all the odds when everything was against her, she was the only source of light for 3 souls when the darkness was fiercely against her. She fought through it all, all by herself, she stood through it all when no one sparred her any mercy, but just stood there and witnessed her sad life from a distance. But hope she held on with all her might and from that hope one day came out a miraculous life. And there she is staring at that blue, not because she can't remember but she's silenced with sudden disbelief that all her dreams are coming true. The relief she feels is beyond explanation, the surprises she gets in her life are unimaginable. Just a moment ago the universe had her at her knees, but she still believed with her unwavering faith and today the universe carries her on its shoulder giving her the experience of a lifetime. Times changes so quick and it unjinxes the bad times and suddenly you feel the brokenness is fixed. It beautifully transforms you to the maverick you are, always meant to fly high shining among the stars.
While you are imprisoned in a rational world, that beats you down to be practical in life killing every ounce of your dreams and aspirations. It might seem foolish or impossible to follow your dreams, while you're held there in that suffocating space, know this, that every dreamer who has achieved their dreams started off once like you. The only difference is they took one step forward and then another until they reached their goal. No magic can be felt in today's world as we are all slaves to our own thoughts and emotions which are deeply controlled by our environment and the people in them. We think that there is no other way than to work hard, and burn the midnight oil for giant corporations or any influence that keeps you in its grips. They in turn groom minds to keep people in a certain way so they chase the money they decide you are worth and trick you to believe this is your reality. And billions live this life not knowing there is another way, yes there will be struggle but aren't you struggling anyway, the only difference will be that you are living life under your terms deciding your worth and doing the work you love achieving the dreams that truly matter to you that inspires you and the others around you. You will no longer feel struggle the same way because it would become your bliss. Shining your own light achieving miracles in your own life. So be that star that shines it's light, for you are here only once as you, in that body, under whatever circumstances that surround you to play this game of life. So play it in your terms at-least and play a game you love instead of being reduced as a player in someone else's game. Awaken my starlight for you are meant to shine.

Star Light (Part-2)
Drumbeats are coming from a distance, the kind of beats
that makes you want to sway to the rhythm or move your head to the beats. There’s
something about music it sets you free, there’s something about music it gives
you wings and makes you want to fly. It moves you in ways you thought you wouldn’t have, it makes you express yourself in ways you thought you couldn’t have. The drumbeats are approaching, can you feel its intensity, can you feel the sound reverberating into you almost
like an invisible hand caressing your soul, and you feel alive like you never
have before. There is no denying that music is inspiring, and it’s rightfully
said that “Music is food for the soul”. It makes you wild and grips you from within
making you sway to its rhythm making you feel like the wind, wild free and ferocious.
It teases your senses and at times giving you the goosebumps, remember, how
many times have you listened to your favorite song, over and over again repeatedly,
like an addiction you take it all in. I feel the universe too is sort of the
same, it inspires you through people or when you travel to an exotic country,
music, food, cinema or even art. We are all so uniquely different, different
things inspires us. Like them drum beats I sometimes feel the universe is
drawing our attention to something within ourselves, that sparks a fire within
us, that brings a yearning for us to be an instrument like the drums and allowing
the universal juice to flow through us and then sending the beats or vibes of
who we are to the world. Imagine radiating pure awesomeness all the time, I
wonder how that would feel? Can you?
Imagine all of the wonders man has accomplished over the centuries,
if you notice only the most exquisite pieces of work may it be in architecture,
philosophy, medicine, technology, the arts etc. etc. has stood the test of
time. Time will erase us all one day, nothing stands against the test of time
apart from the wonders you leave behind to inspire future generations, it’s
almost like leaving a time stamp stating that the people of this particular
generation belonging to this era of time leave this marvel behind so the future
generations be inspired to evolve and blossom to a better community. And through the work
they left behind we get a glimpse of what the people were like at that age,
what they thought and what they hoped for the planet to be. But the planet also
faced dark periods through the ages, it has suffered and has been put to the test but amazingly humans emerge out of it not to barely survive but to thrive prosperously. Maybe some
of us would achieve greatness in a global scale or maybe to the point you inspire
your country men or maybe just your community in your town or village or just
your family. It does not matter at what scale or capacity you brought that
change, what’s important is you’ve inspired, even if its just a soul and by
that one act you would have started a small ripple in the fabric of time and space
for something extra ordinary to occur in the future.
There is a story of Lord Krishna when he was a child, he was
wrongly accused of eating dirt and when his mother Yashoda came to correct Lord
Krishna for his doing, Lord Krishna responded saying he did no such thing, but not
believing the child she asked him to open his mouth and found the entire
galaxies and stars the complete universe in Lord Krishna’s mouth. What if, that
was a clue the Lord gave us, to tell us that we are the universe and we embody
all the mysteries and wonders of it within us. How else would have man evolved from dwelling in the caves to sending launch vehicles into space, how could we achieve such unimaginable
feats unless there was some magical mystical mystery in our being. We create
things like God creates, only restricted to our potential, but then what is our true potential. Each one of us has
that potential but we have lost the ability to see it, believe it, understand
it because we stopped seeking it. It is there always calling out to us,
speaking to us through people, experiences or even in the drumbeats coming out
from that distant drum. You are more than you imagine because you are as deep
and wide as the universe something which we cannot fathom. If you think your
waiting for the experience so you’d wake up, trust me, it happens a lot in a person’s
life. Now its all about responding to that call and taking a leap of faith in
that direction, you are just a chemical reaction away to a spontaneous soulful
combustion so just decide and let go and watch yourself create wonders.
I hear the drumbeats beating and I feel so alive that I cannot
stop my legs from tapping to its rhythm. The hardest part in life is when you’re
struggling and you feel the shit has really hit the ceiling, you feel heavy and
chained, stuck in a reality you just can’t wait to escape and when hope
behaves like a flickering torch light in the darkness of your doom just about to run
of its battery charge. Close your eyes and listen to that drum beat and let it
guide you, that silent voice that whispers in your ears “Keep Going” listen to
it and do what you must. For all the energies you have inside of you, is for you
to wield, you will realize that the more you can wield it, you sort of feel like
you’re holding the Excalibur of your life and then as you learn to use it, you will also learn to
create your world as you please. You will realize the power within you and in self
belief the real journey starts. You will realize that you are a weapon that can
change your own fate and for others. A weapon so unique that there is only one like you out there in the entire world and in the cosmos. There is only one color to darkness and that is black but the light its more. Light can be broken down to its spectrum of colors, VIBGYOR like we learnt in physics. So maybe there is no one version of the truth and due to our uniqueness we see the truth in different versions, but whatever it maybe go ahead and experience your truth, your truest truth because you absolutely deserve it.
Have you heard about a British soldier named Henry James Tandey who sparred the life of a wounded Adolf Hitler during the first world war. I guess many would have debated a lot on, why oh why, didn't he shoot Hitler. Well in his defense, who would have known that Adolf Hitler would go ahead and do what he did. Yes for sure Henry could have stopped the second world war but maybe that wasn't natures intention. The sad part is even after his life was sparred Hitler did not change his ways, his near death experience did not transform him to be a better man but he rather saw it as an opportunity thinking to himself "Ha, now I can go ahead with my evil plan". And like all villains we see in movies we saw him fall too. But I wonder. what if, he transformed his life after that incident and went ahead and became the leader of Germany only to transform the world to a more compassionate place. I wonder what that Hitler would be like, maybe he would have grown his ridiculous moustache out completely and wore a smile on his face kissing people and lifting their spirits up, I feel he would have made a very strong awesome leader. But that was not the case because he had his head so far up in his arsch, he was totally consumed by the darkness within him. He wasn't a cesspool of love, oh no, it was hate. You see, if the darkness doesn't transform you for the greater good it will consume you until you're doomed. So don't hide it, ignore it nor be afraid of it, instead acknowledge it, learn from it and embrace it, cause if you prevent it from consuming you it will lead you to the light.
My Dad used to always say aim for the stars and if you fail at least you'll fall on the clouds. But I'll say there is no limit to where you wish to aim and even if you fail, get back up and aim again. Nobody will understand the battles you are fighting nor will anybody come to fight it for you. Only you know the importance of it, and it is ok if you feel you have lost too many battles until now because only a few battles have been lost for you still have the war to win. Like I said you are just a chemical reaction away from reaching there and this time you're going to be awake while you fight to win them.
