It all starts with dreams and aspirations where we believe we want to be this magical version of ourselves. Do we want to be crazy, fun or balanced? Do we want to be full of passion and love or sadness and pain? There is so much light and life in the world, as well as pain and suffering. Is one better than the other? Is one good and one bad? Frankly, we are too small of a fly to understand the absolute reality. Absolute reality or absolute truth is relative to the lens we use when looking at the world. Opinions are treated as facts, and facts are easily manipulated. That’s the view that only the more experienced ones will tell you. Is it the truth? Maybe, but it’s relative truth based on someone’s individual experience.

Here is my version of fanatical Heer Ranjha( an exciting love story from my culture). There is a crazy version of life which awaits all of us in the future, which is full of mysteries, intrigue and opportunity. Heer refers to a diamond or something powerful. Ranjha means a lover or something that can appreciate something unique’s value. They come together to form ‘nothing’. Nothing which one can’t understand, only experience, and once the experience is felt, it goes back into nothing. It is a very esoterical and spiritual concept, hence impossible for anyone using intelligence and rationale to understand. It doesn’t need any external substances to ignite the spark; it’s internal and, in fact, the most honest thing to experience. Let’s put this in rhyme

Heer the powerful shakti but misfortuned rogi

Ranjha the talented raagi became the wandering jogi

Everywhere I look, I see you, my forgotten beloved

Is this separation really deserved

Was it me, I or you

You were here all along I just never knew……

To everyone confused, thinking, what’s wrong with this guy? Wow, that’s a bit too much for my brain. Let me simplify it for you. Your time on this planet is finite; love endlessly the ones who tolerate your absurdity; instead of changing others, change yourself. Become friends with the insane, illogical, but brave version of yourself. Thank the ones who cared. Tell the ones you liked; AI can take over your job, but it can never take over your beautiful smile. When you feel all hope is lost, faith will enter. There is a lot of noise in the big city and a lot of dull silence in the small towns. Someone cares. Someone wants you to smile.

Please realise you are that someone…….
