alphaville-forever young !!!

no,no,no don't go on the name. i am not gonna post the lyrics of this song. this is something that i expect you all to do after reading this post, besides listening to this mind bending song.
this is not a hard rock head banging song nor a classic eminem rap...its a normal single from the great 1980's but the reason that it deserves a post is that the song makes you realize so many things,so many simple things that you would have never realized before listening to this song.
to begin with, atleast i agree with song that i do wanna be forever young because life becomes so monotonous when you get to your late 30's and it gets even worse from thereon, except if you are vijay mallya!!!
the best part was the one where it tells about the normal human tendency to "hope" for the best but to "expect" the worse...strange but so true. and no wonder, at some point of time, in their life, people do think why don't they stay young, just like i am thinking now and maybe you are too!!! besides all that, even though things are never in our control but still we never say never, we never give up and we keep on trying,isn't it !
oh yeah...who wants to die. so many great songs are still left to be heard,by god, really even though i find a couple of new songs almost everyday, still my playlist seems to be incomplete always because there's still plenty of songs to enjoy, plenty of songs to dance to and plenty of songs to learn from, just like this one here!!!
well, just think once and you will realize that there were so many things that you had planned to do,so many dreams you had, so many people you planned to meet, so may places you wanted to visit and to do all this in this short life suddenly seems to be impossible.
well, there's much more to this song but i will leave that for you to figure out. listen to this song asap and feel what this song wants to say!!! hope you all love it !
PS- while writing this,felt like i was giving a hindi exam from school days where we had to explain a poem line by line.i wish those poems would have been like this song, i would have written a book on them, if not an encyclopedia. :)

light at the end of the tunnel

well we all are quite familiar with this famous quote from i don't know who and you will find this being used by many people like a zillion times in their life.
to begin with, in case u wanted to be sure, then the meaning of this quote is
the end of a difficult period or job
the only question that bothers me right now, given the state of mind that i have, what to do till the time that light doesn't shows up??? i mean even if i believe that there IS a light at the end of tunnel i am in right now, then what am i supposed to do till then. you just can't wait for that light, cause you don't know when its gonna show up, in 2-3 days or 2-3 years or 2-3 decades??? can anyone know that and worse, what if, this is a tunnel without an opening, what if there is no LIGHT as such, not even a waver of light for that case.
agree or disagree with me, but not all problems have a solution that is feasible. take for example the kashmir issue or indo-china issue. why didn't anyone come up with a solution for that till now which could be accepted by both the parties? can we even imagine a light at the end of this tunnel. you can't answer this even after 500 years i bet. not because its impossible but just because some questions don't have that perfect answer which can please everyone.
well leave that for now. but i really need to know what one should do while waiting for that light to shine bright, bringing with itself happiness, satisfaction and acceptance. but before that light even shows a little flicker, what is a person supposed to do. we all know very well, that in situations like these, everything feels like shit and nothing can make you "feel good". and in moments like this, which make you feel helpless and weak and god knows what all, there seems to be no end to the suffering.
i could easily go on for pages on the topic because i need to find the answers to this asap. i am ending this post not on a conclusive note but as a question for you all. what to do when you are going crazy due to problems you know that may not give solutions in your favor, not even anywhere near that. what to do if that light is just too far from you and the probability of tushar kapoor giving a hit suddenly feels more than that of you seeing that light at the end of the tunnel. what to do at these times except running while shouting loudly and madly on streets, talking like crazy to yourself and sleeping all day along.
do you have the answers???
