Nothing Serious - Just Life

Madhyantar se Mahashoonya tak
Saal ha saal ki tallash ke baad, Zindagi ke chaman se chhante hain;
Aapko chahiye tau pesh karoon, mere daaman mein chand kaante hai.

The incompleteness of the seemingly fulfilling life

Often Quoted -

कभी किसी को मुक्क्मल जहाँ नहीं मिलता,
कहीँ ज़मीन तो कहीँ आसमान नहीं मिलता।

Everybody and anybody has witnessed the truth behind the above lines, yet we run after the 'everything' and seemingly let the smaller moments of happiness pass by, unnoticed.

The life itself, is such a fulfilling track of events, happy and sad; yet we try to inflate it like a baloon, till it is just about to burst. Then, we try to fill in stuff into it, and stuff it like a rugsack. Once full, we shake it a little, press is here and there, and make more space in it, trying to fill in a little more. We peep into the sack of life, see that extra space we have created, and give ourselves another illuion of still more emptyness. There is still so much that I can fill in my life, when everyone else has so much. Just cant feel satisfied.

We pick up most stuff from the shelves, and stuff it further. The moment seem to fulfilling. And the moments sink into the rugsack of life, settleong themselves in small spaces. Satisfied, we pick the sack, heavier than before, on our already burdened back, and carry it a few steps further. Tired, we keep it down a rest a little while. Curious, we peep into the sack again. Some movements, and time, seemed to have settled the last set of happening, and we see still more space...

Alas.. my life is still so empty .... We start the cycle again.. stuffing it with whatever we get.

Why can't we be happy with what we have। We have so much to enjoy, including the space, instead of stuffing our lives with so much just because the rest of the world has it?

I guess, life itself has given me so much, including the most beautiful pain I can live my life with. Each pang has its own charm, each pinch has its own smile.

So, guess ... instead of ..

कभी किसी को मुक्क्मल जहाँ नहीं मिलता,
कहीँ ज़मीन तो कहीँ आसमान नहीं मिलता।

I would better say ..

शुक्रिया ए प्यार तेरा शुक्रिया,
दिल को इतना खूबसूरत गम दिया।

आंख को आंसू दिए जो मोतियों से कम नहीं,
दिल को इतने गम दिए के अब कोई भी गम नहीं
मेहरबान जो कुछ किया, अच्छा किया।
शुक्रिया ए प्यार तेरा शुक्रिया,


जिन्दगी को दर्द में डूबे तराने दे दिए।
हसरतों के, आरजूओं के खजाने दे दिए,
ये नवाज़िश है तेरी क्या क्या दिया
शुक्रिया ए प्यार तेरा शुक्रिया,

I am Glad..... for the emptyness I have, so that I can enjoy each emotion in its completeness.
