A song i created when i was in the 10th grade... found it in an old mail attachment!
Barring the guitar solo at the end i composed the music and played all the instruments....Oh Nostalgia! 

A Letter to You

Hello Reader,

I have noticed in my very few years of existence as a human being in the early 21st century that we have all built on our ancestors and kept creating new things that would ensure that we stayed away from thinking about who we are and this in-turn has put us all into a vicious cycle that dis-allows us to get back to thinking about our core values as human brings. What we created as distractions in the first place have become the reason why we live. Distractions like money; institutions like family and society; and conveniences like civilizations have replaced the sole reasons to exist. We have slowly found ourselves adapted to this impure way of living and we simply blame them on other important reasons that were only created by us to keep ourselves busy. Technology, Business, metro political cities are all created only so that we quench out initial thirst of experiencing multiple realities and then eventually move on to figuring out those long lost ideas. Ideas that are complex because of their simplicity. Us, humans have stayed away from them cause of our laziness.

But we are so far away from it now that we have started calling those people who remind us about those initial ideas lunatics. We have slowly and sub-consciously shoved aside all the ideas of peace, harmony and brotherhood all because of our collective laziness.

The human beings have become lazy. They have because they can afford to. Their super-developed brains have made it so they don't even need to meet another soul to connect with them. And no they aren't using love, faith or trust to communicate long distance. they have figured out ways to send their voices across the globe to create the illusion of connection.

The reason behind my unsettled mind is that we have ignored this "issue" when it came up, every-single-time. And we continue to do so. And we will continue to do so for as long as it takes for somebody to stand up against this blur, effectively. I use the word effectively because i think that all the people who have used different methods have all been ineffective. This does not mean that all these tries are meaningless. Actually, one of these methods or some combined together is going to give that somebody the right and effective method. However, there is a huge loop-hole in this whole chain of thought. At least one major loop-hole.

Here it is.

One man is not the solution. When one man starts something the rest follow. That man no longer becomes the cause. everyone involved become the cause. so while we all go to work, school, life we should think to ourselves at least once a day "Am I doing the right thing?"

This will bring us to re-awaken that sub-conscious that is sleeping or should i say taking a nap. We can wake up and all it takes is a slap or a soft whisper.

OK. I guess the real loop-hole is this.

We don't realize that we are one. When one man stands up it means that we all have stood up.

And now all I want you, as a reader, to do is understand the pain that I am feeling in my legs. For I have stood up and am carrying that weight, everybody's weight. Only when the weight is shared can my legs rest. All I have to do is ask myself everyday " am I doing the right thing?" and I stay standing.

And dear reader, I want you to know that I really and truly love you. I hope that you will someday love, the same way I do.

शान्ति and ॐ
