With Chopin playing and my headphones plugged in I am feeling the best I have EVER felt. I am typing along with the notes. Its lyrical.The sun is setting and a gentle breeze is making me shiver a little. A pigeon is walking on the edge of the balcony. He stops and he stares. I stare right back. I like this bizarre evening where I am up to "no good". I am simply writing what is on my mind.
Why do we get so busy in life that we cannot appreciate the beauty of things anymore?
Why is it that we don't play Chopin or Beethoven or Debussy and just breathe a while?
When I have such moments, I listen to the great creators of music who have shaped me as a person. I sit here today and think about all those days I moaned when my mother would push me to go for Piano lessons. All those days when my Piano teacher would call me names in Parsi when I would hit the wrong note.
But when they say you often realise things late in life, I understand.
Today, I am sobbing mess when I hear Beethovens; Silence or Chopins; Nocturno.
The beauty of music is often just lost in the blaring.
I'd just say, sit back and just LISTEN to any piece of music you like or associate with instead of HEARING it.
It makes things fall in perspective and happier. It is music for my soul.
I am one of those who wishes life had a background score. And when times are bad I just turn the volume up and take it all in.
Today I just wanted to write. Nothing specific, no agenda. This is just pure babbling because today, I just wanted to write.
And today, I feel peaceful.
xoxo
Peace out!
