Into the memory lane ...

I am petrified by this song .... tears flow ceaselessly.. Why the past seems so haunting and touching .. does anyone know the answer? We yearn for those moments gone by .. simply can't have them ...
Continuing in my quest... I guess only the depth in the present and the breadth of purpose can resolve this mystery... Nay, not to the mountains .. instead deep into the grand drama of daily and mundane life.

My favorite composer Madan Mohan & actor Sanjeev Kumar in this song are no more. They too have slipped into the abyss of the past ... But they re-live fully within the experiential moment of yours and mine... as we experience this song.

With gratitude ..

This is a very beautiful song - expressing the life's longing for meaning and fulfillment.

'Why is the past so haunting' - perhaps a question each of us ask ourselves many times throughout our lives. But I think I find answer to this question in the song - Aane wala pal jane wala hai (from Gol Maal).
