SILENCE and WORDS, are they necessarily
opposites !!
I start off on a vague note, but that's how
life really is!! The technology that allows
us to hold communication with any one
anywhere we may be as long there is network
connectivity and balance, today allows us to
keep memories in images, voice recordings,
motion pictures, and with them music. The
real life saver is perhaps this one thing.
The world in which we live seems to be so
spoilt for race, it blurs past us, and
somehow despite friends, family we feel left
out and alone, a stranger amongst strangers
(my way of describing). However, in all this
the Apple Iphone grips the market with a
frenzy, to possess it would mean so much..
and achievement of nano technology(may be
i'm worng with the terminology), who cares!
truth remains, we are continuosly searching
something smaller, more portable in which we
can cram more and more things, music, books,
pictures, thoughts, memories and work...
We often speak of work- life balance, but
how is it possible when we carry our work
and personal life to and fro between office
and home? There was a time when one could
advice young professionals not to carry
office files back home, but the Flash drive
brings not just office work but mingles our
personal PC items into the office PC,
ofcourse, for the worse CUrsed there's the
office Laptop which is with you wherever you
go...
There's the office phone, once a Landline,
now a mobile that's always with you can't
possibly turn it off, forget it!!It's a
tight leash around us ... !! Do we realise
it? We see it as perks and requirements!!
Anyways, meandering and ranting over!!
Music soothes our mind, one of my friend's
pointed it out to me that best medicine for
melancholia and depression which I also
suffer, considerably more in this grey
monsson...is MUSIC..!!And like all other not so nice stuff he is
right about, turns out this one's true!
Cause everytime there's something messed up
taking shape (contradiction!!) in my head i
turn on the music.
So, carry your laptops, and get yourself, a
wireless headphone for office, and Ipod, or
a Music phone, and turn it up and turn it
on!!
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR EXCEPT THE GREAT
SILENCE ITSELF .. !!! .. !!
