A Piece of Thought

Sleeping. This reminds me of my dad. My dad keeps on shouting at me to sleep at proper time. Well, for the people who dont know, I sleep generally at around 3.30 am, for around 6 hours. 

Here, at my hostel, there are times when my room-mate wakes up at 5.30 am and wishes me good morning while i wish him good night. ;)

So, coming back on the issue of sleeping at the proper time, what i have always fail(ed) to understand is 'what is defined as proper time??' If everyone sleeps early does it really mean that it is the proper time. Is everything decided only by the majority, even my sleeping hours. Also another thought creeps up to my mind, 'am I sufferring from some disease, illness or maybe insomnia!!!'

So, to satisfy my curious mind I just googled to find out whether i have insomnia or maybe some other thing. And this is what came up as a solution to my query. 

Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS)

Well, it is the inability to awaken and fall asleep at socially acceptable times, according to wikipedia.

SOCIALLY Acceptable Time i.e. time followed by the society.

But, Am i not a part of the society??

If yes, then why do i suffer from DSPS because according to me my sleeping hours are proper.

Also, taking my room mate's case under consideration, his immediate society would be me and a few others like me who sleep pretty late. So shouldn't he be suffering from this syndrome. But that is not the case. We, who sleep late (early morning) will still be the one who suffer from this syndrome.

Taking cue from my syndrome, Pause and now think for a second

How can something be decided for us by the society, when we are the people who constitute the society??? 

Why if someone does things differently is cast differently in a society???

Why is this phrase 'society doesnt approve of this' always used when we do something differently???

And Why do we abide by these rules when we are the ones who make these unwritten rules???

Why...!!??!! 

I leave you with these thoughts. :)

My love...

ya.. this post is about my LOVE.. dont let your minds shoot wildly.. its not a girl..!! yes.. yes. i am straight.. its not even a boy... its MUSIC.

Music is what feelings sound like. It is a medium through which one can express his feelings and thoughts. It doesnt require a language. It is well beyond words. It is the catalyst of Love. It is the medicine of the breaking heart...

The first ever english song i heard was 'Meatloaf - I'd do anything for love'.. around in 1996. Immediately fell in love with that song. My love has always kept on changing. From Artsits like Meatloaf, Beatles, Creed to Evanescence. The songs with which i fall in love with keeps on changing. But the one thing which always is common is music. 

The first ever concert i attended was Bryan Adams in Mumbai. Immediately fell in love with that too. I clearly remember i had a hangover of that concert for almost half a month. It sent me in a trance. Who said you need to drink (or dope) to get high!!

My deep love for music started when i started to learn the guitar. It thought me how even a pause.. a note of silence forms music.. it thought me how much hard work and pleasure it goes in making music.

My introduction to house and trance music showed me that how some repeated beats given in good effects can raise your adrenaline level. Even those songs without vocals had lots of meaning to it. Each song has someone's soul into it. It is the outburst of one's soul. It has deep meaning.

Well.. the purpose of my post is to share this joy of music. So try this some time (if u haven't): take some hours off, once or twice a week (atleast), only for yourself and music. Indulge in listening to your favourite tracks and thus enjoy this solace This would become as important as having a bath in the morning. ;)
