COME SEPTEMBER!!!!

COME  SEPTEMBER!!!!




 September 1!! The month starts with the WhatsApp forward of the title song of the epic 1961 American movie COME SEPTEMBER.  For me, it’s pure nostalgia.  I was introduced to it last year by a friend.  Again 2020 special. 

This Rock Hudson and  Gina Lollobrigida dance number is the ultimate adrenaline rush to last the whole of September.  I have it running non-stop in my head for days together. Crazy me! I bet it is the same with many of you.  Just that you don’t carry your heart on your sleeve like me!

Though I haven’t seen the movie, the tune and the handsome couple convey it all in that dance. It becomes a fantasy for some like me. Yes, a fantasy it is.  To dance with him (My man🤩!) with that sense of joy and passion.   The expression and the body language of the dance say it all.  The chemistry is so evident.  It’s an example of the cosmic energy on the roll!  I bet you don’t understand this!  But this is my interpretation of my feelings on the song.  You might have a different view, but I am sure it does make your heart flutter, whatever your age may be.  That’s the magic…

I live with this magic and want to share the sparkle with you this September.  Let, the magic of love remain in our hearts whatever our age is.  After all, age is just a number.  It's about dancing to a tune in your heart and this is one such tune…

COME SEPTEMBER!   Let the magic happen again!!

    Come September means "to arrive or happen after time has passed" of come. I will be back in school come September is same as I'll be back in school when September comes.
    The tune and the dance are so carefree, open, full of energy manifesting the feelings of the couple in their beautiful movements and can be infectious marking it as a reference point for some memories in our lives.

    The 1961 movie shot in Italy is a beautiful comedy and this tune by Bobby Darin is a timeless hit. This has been plagiarised (oops inspired!) by composer Nadeem Shravan for their movie RAJA starring Madhuri Dixit Nene with the song 'Nazre mili dil dhadka meri dhadkan ne kaha'...
    This tune was also used by Anu Malik.

    This Hollywood movie also inspired 3 Indian movies - Kasmir ki Kali, Mere Sanam and Anbe Vaa in Tamil, all with excellent soundtracks.

LETTING GO OF MY DZIRE....MY PRIDE, MY GRACE!!

  LETTING GO OF MY DZIRE…… MY PRIDE, MY GRACE!! ‘Life is a balance between holding on and letting go’…..RUMI quotes. Easily said than done!  I realized this a few days ago, when the family decided it was time to sell off our old car.  All the logic dished out to me made sense.  But my heart ached.  How would I let go of 11years of having her, the memories that I share with her?  The tears looked foolish, more than ever with so much silver in my hair.   I was supposed to be practical with age! Finally, I let her go with grace(well maintained, shinning and beautiful as ever ) with a prayer that her new owners would keep her with pride as I did. (Hopefully)  It made me think…Should all old things go?  Just because they don’t serve our purpose in the present scenario.  Just because they are old?  Because we cant afford to service them?  (The logic for the car!) The maintenance costs have increased?  I found this logic ech...

HOPELESSNESS TO HOPE ....A JOURNEY

  HOPELESSNESS TO HOPE …….. A JOURNEY As I watched the news on a particular channel, that ended with a good news story, my lips curled in a slight smile.  Hope, in these times, seemed rather alien a thought.  I pondered on these two words. Hope and Hopelessness. These words, I believe resonates with each one of us.  We find ourselves oscillating from one to the other many times in our lives.  Sometimes, many a time each day.  In this still new (although more than a year old now) covid situation, can we be blamed? After all, hope and hopelessness has never been alien to civilization. They have been a constant with humanity. From HOPELESSNESS to HOPE and vice-versa is a journey that all of us have taken time and again. These feelings walk together. Thanks to the uncertainties that we are facing today (It was always there, but not as much!) every situation seems overwhelming.   We seem to be taking this journey more often.   With no...
