Title inspired from
an article I happened to read in one of those weekend magazines in my desert
city. Unlike the usual reads full of shallow materialism, this particular
article spoke about Brianna, a nurse and Nate Lytle , a miracle survivor of a
disastrous accident. How Brianna never guessed when she started her nursing
shift that she would fall for a patient in coma…how she used to speak to Nate
while he was unconscious and how she felt that one of a kind..strange
connection with him… which happens only once in a life time… when love gets eternal…
At a time when I was
almost doubting the existence of anything ‘unconditional’ in this unforgiving
world… God made me browse through the pages of that magazine..when yet again..
my beliefs about life..love..and the existence of that ‘someday’ when
everything falls in place.. were rekindled. For that’s the way with life… the
unique strange thing about it.. when we are almost on the verge of giving up..
life gives you something to hold on.. something to start living all over again.
True that sometimes it’s better not to worry about not having someone by our
side.. or to worry about not finding that unique kind of connect with anyone…
instead… cherish each moment of being in love.. with life.. with all the good
and bad it throws at you.. spend the rest of your life making memories..
happy..positive..serene ones...
Sometimes we all find
love in the unlikeliest of circumstances.. when you start looking at life with
a whole new perspective.. ‘Veyilaay oru naal’ from the Malayalam movie ‘Unnam’
is one such song which got to me when I had almost lost touch with my
reflection…my blog. Didn’t want to wait till tomorrow to write about this
track. Penned sacredly by Rafeeq Ahmed sir and given the soulful tune by Sri
John P Varkey, ‘Veyilaay’ is a heavenly track which touched my soul…
Though I could not appreciate or
relate to the way the song has been used in the movie, I just could not look through the soul of the
fabulous melody which beautifully captures the most unconditional form of the
divine emotion. Again another realization that.. quite often things are not
exactly the same as they appear…shallow turns out to be deep and what appears
to be the most intense thing..turns out to be nothing but chaff. It’s
unfortunate that just like the song.. many of us look through he abundance we
have in our lives… just not content..always looking for something else.. when
some where during the course of search.. we lose ourselves… when we eventually realize
what we have left behind is what we needed the most… what we crushed under our
feet is what gave meaning to our existence…
While the song begins to play one
more time in my phone… I close my eyes and wish that at some stage ..we all
find that priceless unconditional love Nate got from Brianna… as for my part, I wish to be that dew that
melts away after watering your much dried soul.. when it rains ..wish to be that
ray of light which would make you warm and then fade away… wish to be that prayer which
will keep you safe.. just to be that silent breathe that follows you where ever
you go living your life. In a world I can be anything…I wish to be myself…!
Yes, there is dew in my desert..
‘Who wants to live forever.. I
would rather live my memories with you and breathe my last…If you are cold at
night..let the promise of my love for you..cover you warm..’
