tera na hona

You know that song na hai ye pana na khona hi hai ye, tera na hona bhi jane kyon hona hi hai ye, from jab we met, I love that line, that idea, tera na hona ... hona hi hai ye.

I get that. I agree. In a lot of ways your absence is as good as your presence. In a very bad way, it is better than your presence. In your absence I can imagine you to be whatever suits my fancy. In my imagination you say all the things I want to hear. But when you are there yourself, you so irritatingly insist on saying what you want. ugh! what a spoilsport! main nahi khel rahi

ya shayad angoor khatte hain... beggars can't be choosers... whatever... let me live in my delusion. tera na hona bhi .... hona hi hai ye. It is a comforting thought and come to think of it, the external realities of life are of little to no consequence. It is the alternate reality that you create in your brain that helps you survive and get through the drudgery of everyday existence. So go ahead. Knock yourself out. Lord knows I do.

There are so many things that happen in your daily life which you can not relate to anything and then after some days everything starts fitting in like a scrambling puzzle. Then you feel amazed and say..wah rabba teriya tu he jane..

I read your blog abt the song, but I could not realized what so go abt the song. And then one night with some upset mood I was scrolling through TV channels to stop at NDTV news to see Pritam singing live in studio and telling story about how he composed one particular song...and when he sang it and I can recall your blog immediately. "hai ye pana na khona hi hai ye, tera na hona bhi jane kyon hona hi hai ye"

There were 2 parts of the song which he composed differently and wanted to have 2 different songs first but then he combined it into a single song.

And I also agree that in absence of anybody I can imagine him/her to be whatever suits my fancy rather I am obsessed of doing it:)
