Emotions enriched words

 Emotions enriched words

Emotions don't ‘need' words .

But nothing should prevent us from humbly using certain words ( of address) as powerful tools/instruments, to invoke/reLive the emotions that got attached to those precious emotions of kid age, when those emotions were pristine, pure and genuine 👍

I am a ‘bit’ fortunate, in having a few of my school classmates still in touch with me 😜

I wrote to them, my views.

can "afford" addressing each other ( kid age friends) in the same style " अबे, साले, हौला, हौ बाप" etc। 😜

It's not just about the 'words'.   Words are mere tools/instruments to dig_out our childhood का innocence 🙏 ( no frills, adornments, embellishments needed.   Inside-outside same!  Pristine emotional bonds 🙏.  जेब में एक खड़कू नहीं है 😜, to even 'think' of appeasement 🤣)

Formal words have become more about 'appeasement' rather than a genuine heart_felt REVERENCE for the other( for the well deserved honour in the other 😓)

[23/08, 7:28 am] PSN: We "associate" a few emotional experiences with the words we happened to use during the occasion ( and the frequently used words especially).

Emotions, by themselves, are non_verbal. ( Beyond a point, we struggle for words, when overwhelmed 😭).

Then why 'deny' ourselves those words?

( A classic example of deep pain struggling with deep affection of a father :  mughal_e_azam....  Prithviraj Kapoor shouts to Dilip Kumar " शेखू 😡" when Dilip is adamant about a "लौण्डी"/heroine 🤣)

ज़रा सोच ( to my friend, i wrote)...

You are ½ asleep (not alert).

You hear someone uttering "Guroo"(my friend's pet name, used by his parents ).

You wake up with a 'start'( startled wala) 😂

The voice , tone and texture felt like a xerox copy of your dear dad/mom calling you! 

In a milli_second, you experience a very deep emotion related to your affection for your parent🙏.

( We 'recover' from it next moment 👍. We realise it's a false alarm 😂).

No psychiatrist can ‘match’ the effect of those magical words, to revive certain emotions which can be like a tonic/elixir for our mental health 😂

Even great surgeons request that ‘close’ relative to come into the operation theatre and try whispering those magical words into the ears of the patient, who is not responding to ‘life’, post_surgery 😜

A thousand odd names of Gods, not counting the names of Gurus, in our irreligious Hinduism, unscientific???? (Ask those who got ‘initiated’ into a ‘mantra’, about what it does? 😜🙏🙏🙏).

NonVerbally yours,
