Where to Go?

Days end…..

Changes have been so common that now eyes and mind have become too numb to notice them. Each day is very similar to the other day; at times it seems the whole day was just a Xerox copy of some previous day.

There is a discomforting feeling of end approaching, stealthily. However this feeling is also mixed with some sort of fear.

Fear of stagnating, not moving. At times mind thinks that given a chance it would run fast as it can, the only question stopping it from running is.

Where to go?

Two interpretations of a wonderful song.....

Thoda hai, thode ki zaroorat hai....

This post refers to the different interpretations of a song. The song in question is “Thoda hai, Thode ki zaroorat ha” Film Khatta-meetha.

The first line of the song leaves the listener with two possible interpretations.

It says “Thoda hai, thode ki zaroorat hai”

The immediate interpretation is that of all the necessities and requirements some are fulfilled and others are not fulfilled.

After a little while, I thought something different. Does it also not leave room for an interpretation like, “one has modest resources and the requirements are also modest in nature/amount/type.”?

Second line of the poem says “Zindagi phir bhi yahaan, khoobsurat hai”. After listening to this one is sure that the poet indicates the first interpretation, however I believe the second interpretation is also equally likely.

Don’t you think so?
