my enso...for now


What is creativity?
What is inspiration?
What is this journey on which you have set yourself into?
What are the goals you wish to see?
What are the destinations you wish to reach?
What are the answers you seek to search through these questions?

Questions...and more questions...and more yet to come...

When I was 5, I had a dream of becoming the next Superman! I had a wish to fly in the sky and save all the people who needed help. A few years later, I realized, the one person who needed help the most was myself. Help yourself first...however you want to do that! For some it comes by solely being selfish and fulfilling your dreams. For a few others, it comes by putting the people in front of you at the help list and have smiles reach their faces...it helps them once they see that...social workers? Well, aren't we all social workers in some way or the other?!

Just keep helping is what I realized. And by help, I do not mean favoring anybody! By help, I mean to be selfish and find means in which you can make yourself smile in a way that you are not the only one in a group of 5 who does so...because trust me in that case, your smile is a temporary one! Go out and make that a permanent one...if possible, reach that principle out to as many possible.

When I turned 13, I wanted to become a filmmaker. My Dad thought it was just a fancy that a young useless goalless kid of his has caught hold to! Honestly, I wonder why...but it never really bothered me as to whether he took me seriously or not. Probably, because I was way too serious about myself! This was what I wanted to do. This was what I wanted my life to see...me becoming a film maker! Set the frames well, script the words and bind my story having various characters...who are those characters - I had no clue! Probably, I still don't! But, I do know even 10 years later that...they exist...and they will take birth...soon!:) So, simply go out and live your dreams!

Now, about the initial questions...lets take it one by one -

Q1 - What is creativity? -
Can you answer this first - has it come from creation or has creation been delivered from it? Probably, when you get to answer this question, you would know what creativity is too!

Q2 - What is inspiration? -
When was the last time you felt something different in you but yet felt that the feeling is so you? When did you feel that you wanted to just keep walking and observing and seeing and realizing and yet keep walking? When you realize the meaning of Jayesh Bhai's definition to
"WALK" (W = Witness, A= Accept, L=Love, K=Know)...or rather have your own definitions to your vocabulary, I guess you will realize what inspiration is. Once again, I have re-defined my vocabulary (which keeps changing...and I'm glad it does!) and probably thus I'm writing this to you!

Q3 - What is this journey on which you have set yourself into? -
Trust me, its beautiful. Don't really ask much...you will realize and know it yourself once you know that you have started your journey!:)

Q4 - What are the goals you wish to see? -
If you know this, let me know...as I would love to share mine too just as I did in the first two phrases. I guess for now my answer to this would just be what you wish to see yourself to do in the frames that set the reels of your life...

Q5 - What are the destinations you wish to reach? -
Begin the walk...when you realize your journey has begun...you will realize your destinations too!

Q6 - What are the answers you seek to search through these questions? -
You ask a lot...which is not bad...so, you will find your answers. I say this because you have your questions...and questions come with answers...we just need to find them ourselves...which I'm sure we all will when we have finished solving them all. And how do we solve them? ...well, I like this circle...probably go back to Q1 and continue...

Leaving you with this enso of life...

till later...

kuch haseen khwaab


kuch haseen khwaabon se
dil ke saaye hai,
tujhse milke aaj yeh
phir se chaaye hai...

woh din bhar sawaalo ke
jawaabon se khayaalon tak,
jo tum hume le chale,
andhero se mashaalo tak,
har pal mein jeeya har jazba
is rishte ne dohraaya hai...
kuch haseen khwaabon se...

tujhe na dhoondu main kahi,
pukaaru na gully gully;
sab soche yeh kaisi dilkashi
is hijr mein, ankahee;
yeh pyaar ki jo sau baatein
subeh, dopar, au' raatein
is duniya ko, sabhi ko,
aur kin lafzon mein samjhaaye hai...
kuch haseen khwaabon se...

chalte, raah par kabhi
yeh pal agar mile tumhe
uthaa lo tum inhe sabhi,
jo inki baatein bhi sune
hai faasle bhi darmiyaan,
kuch yaadein bhi muskaaye hai...
kuch haseen khwaabon se...
