When I was young and naive, I thought that my life and experiences are so unique. But then, when I became old and naive, I understood that everything that I have lived through has been lived through and even written about by others. I found nearly all my experiences in some parts of the literature or the other. I think, in this blog only, I wrote some posts about that feeling.
However, as it was bound to happen, I grew up to become older and naive... And that is why, a few days ago, I realized it yet again. That my life is not only lived and written through literature. It is all around me. Sample this - can you imagine someone listening to some popular Punjabi pop songs and finding bits and pieces of their own life, dreams, and nostalgia in that? Serious pieces! Sounds ridiculous, right? Well, c'est la vie!
And if at this point you think that I am going to tell you those songs and resemblance I found... you are right! Or, on second thoughts, let it be! Baat niklegi to phir door talak jaayegi... Or as someone sang in a Punjabi song: Sadde Palle Vi Jo Rone Geya Pa... Kitte Koi Ronda Hovega!!
