Anti-Gravity Handle

A friend of mine asked me a few days back, if I had ever felt weightless ! I said yes !
Though that does not happen more often these days, however everytime I listen to the music with the handle you see below, it just lifts me up :) and the mood alongwith !



And something that I am listening to these days :

Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
The town lit up the world got still

Im learning to fly but I aint got wings
Comin down is the hardest thing

Well the good old days may not return
And the rocks might melt, and the sea may burn

Im learning to fly but I aint got wings
Comin down is the hardest thing

Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I started out for God kno ws where
But I guess Ill know when I get there

Im learning to fly around the clouds
But what goes up must come down

Im learning to fly but I aint got wings
Comin down is the hardest thing
Im learning to fly around the clouds
But what goes up must come down

Im learning to fly
Im learning to fly

A beautifully written, sung and videographed song by Tom Petty... Check it out here.

  1. what does weightless feel like? no thoughts, or only happy thoughts, or what? I have never felt it...maybe because I cannot even imagine what it must feel like.

  4. Nice song... another song which shares the name "Learning to fly" by Pink Floyd (and a few other songs) combined with some substances which are banned in most countries is almost certain to give you that feeling.

    its a feeling that you cannot really describe in words... I still remember when it happened to me for the first time.. all thats to that nasty weather outside and my dad and mom !!!

    its like you are not suspended by anything and still are not falling anywhere... just being in the space... just like that... phew... its tough to explain like i said..

    # Tanu...
    aayega beta aayega... we all get so much engrossed in the world outside that we tend to loose the ability to give our brains a rest...

    # Anony...

    its very tough actually specially when your mind is occupied with so many thoughts that never leave you !!!

    I guess thats where continuous meditation helps... My pa does it, and I am not sure how it stays focus on his chants even though there is so much happening around him...

    The song is a nice one.. i liked it...

    I guess it will come only with time and not as soon as you want it... spend time with yourself ( like i think you already do in the garden) enjoy silence, try not to speak anything for a few minutes in the day...

    hoga dheere dheere, if you really want it..

    I am not giving anyone my headphones :D

    # Vaishali...
    i have tried to answer it for KAshmira... see if you think its sensible...
