Music.....to me, right now, that word symbolizes Enigma's Celtic Dream. Evokes memories. Soothes my mind. Looking out of my window, I can see the brilliant Sun, always unfailing in its duty to provide us with the brightest of all its rays of light. It just breathes life into all of us, but I don't get why so many of us run away from something so incredibly out of this world, on a pretext like skin cancer. While the Sun sprinkles its gold dust on us, the leaves on the trees outside my window bask in the glory of their share of gold dust. Listening to Celtic Dream which makes everything around me feel so divine. The magic of the sunshine and the innumerable memories that the song and the swaying branches bring to my mind are just more than the simple pleasures of life. They are the elements which make Life seem like such an illusion...such a dream...I was also reading a comic strip alongside and then Celtic Dream began to play...that combination just evoked a lot of memories...especially, the ones with my grandfather. The best memories I have of him are when I was really young, we used to sit up late in the night and read the 'Dennis the Menace' cartoon strips in the newspaper. Those were some precious moments that have claimed their rightful place in my 'sky of memories' and it doesn't exactly bring a smile to my face when I begin to realize that I can only look up at that sky, but all those memories are like the stars in that sky, I can reach out to them, and even see them sparkling bright, but I can never bring them back into my life, never hold them in my hands. My grandfather passed away in December 2004, soon, it will be a year since he passed through the golden gate where each of us will someday have to pass through. I'm not sure if it makes me sad or if makes me just wonder....wonder about the moments in our lives. Somehow, everything's just written in the stars, and that's Life for me. Picture in my head: A person walking alone on a long road with the wide sky above him painted midnight blue. All the silver stars above him shining like jewels in the darkness...it's not an ordinary darkness, it's in fact a darkness full of promise and wonder..it contains all the magic in the world, all the prayers, all the hope, all the wonder, all the voices from the heavens...and...all those who have watched over him and all the others like him who have travelled the same road..and they will continue to watch over everyone who will ever travel that road.......
