Mirror is said to show it all
Nature still is a stranger’s call
Seated in a corner rest
Some thoughts put logic to test

Destiny takes you to alien
places. It also brings one face to face with new situations and makes you meet
absolute strangers. Time as fourth dimension trudges on, marking each moment in
your life as an event sequenced through the past into the future. I often
wonder if destiny and history have some connection or if past has a distinct
and common connection to the present or the future.
I see mirror as a reflection
of a truth you are, yet it also transcends the borders of imagination by
crossing the transient to the perpetual. Travelling further, we are confronted
with new situations and new people who begin to look familiar after sometime of
sharing. Yet, as we settle down permanently at one place or with a person, in
some vague moments of weakness, our hearts jump out seeking new places and
people, some that fit in exactly like a note of music we had always wished to hear.
Such an embedding of patterns in our psyches, make us question the law
attraction that defies logic etched by our thoughts and behaviour.
Some songs, few words born
Reminiscences of bereft bygone
Carefree, gay, left away
Memories like stacked dead hay

It so happens that you meet
someone, an absolute stranger, who seems so known to you that every aspect of
his/her speech, thought and action is sketched as a pre-marked Etch in your
mind. In Hindu mythology is said that a person has six clones in other parts of
the world. In essence it is thus believed that there are seven identical
entities born at a single moment.
In music, some tunes stick to
our souls. Some notes seem very familiar due to their close resemblance to
similar notes in other songs. Yet combination of words of each song makes that
it distinct and beautiful. Human souls are such combination of notes. Memories
on the other hand are like untouched desires that probe through the lyrics in
search of an association or link to some forgotten notes of music. Songs that
may have left you lonely, happy or sad at some point of time! Are such
reminiscences stacked and stored like dead hay? Perhaps kept dry for being used
on some other day!
It rains intermittent slow
Like Myyazhi’s slow flow
Words resting like little birds
Perched alone in yesterday’s tone

Like dejavu, situations,
places, fragrances and faces, return to haunt us, teasing our memories. They
may take you to an edge of time which seems to be happening exactly the same
way it had happened before! You meet people with whom you feel absolutely
comfortable. People so naturally connected that they seem to be part of you in
some way.
While the rains bring back
thoughts and germinate feelings that ebb and flow like river Myyazhi (A river
in Mahe), Words can soar, glide and flap their imagery like birds ending up
seated in loneliness reminding us of the bygone. As we scurry around to clutch
onto our present, it turns into our past within moments and also our future.
This brings forth a period of emptiness we feel like drawing back from;
Experiences of our past and reliving such memories in the mirror of time.
Step out, travel, tread along
Take your heart where it belongs
Zodiac, Stars, tides can bring
Reflections real, like your Cosmic twin.

Human emotions change like
hues of the sky. A rising sun in shades of orange turns Golden and as dusk
approaches it turns crimson red and eventually ambers die down in the night
sky. If we listen to our minds, joys of travel and moving out of our hearths
eventually reflect time frozen in our memories and make us realize that we need
to move on. If we listen to our hearts, we tread the line of excitement,
adventure and passion to ultimately be one with our desire and stay on in
eternity, a true reflection of our loving awakened self. Yet sometimes the
constellations and designs of nature bring us face to face our reflections and
destiny. A new place you reached today could be a place you were destined to be
and perhaps were present in some other time period. A new soul you met today
could be the face you had always yearned to see! A face so similar that even
the mirror you peer into would reflect on its surface an image of your cosmic
twin!
