Up in the Air

Vaibhav Lila Jayan February 11, 2020

Whenever I’m up in the air, my brain and heart goes into an other worldly philosophical high, and my EQ shoots through the roof (don’t know what they call roof of an airplane), very plutonic emotional space. I’m in some kind of high where I could feel good about whatever I see, whatever I listen to. I feel empathy towards everyone !

Today on my way from Oakland,CA to Atlanta, I am mesmerized by Harish Sivaramakrishnan’s rendition of the song - Thankathinkal. More than anything its his passion and love for the songs that is profound.

Cheers mate !

I believe that with fierce dedication and passion, anything is possible. The first time I heard Harish sing a song, I didn’t like him interrupting the songs with his blurb about the raga of the song or the composer, I felt it destroyed the song, But what do I know?, it was his fierce passion for music. And I think he has refined to be a great singer. Anyone can achieve anything with dedicated passion, ignorant people like me will call you crazy weirdo, they will kill you but you will come out of that and rise from those ashes like a Phoenix and the same people will applaud you ,speaking of which my stopover is at Phoenix , Arizona

Good day !

Back in my next leg, As I was saying about dedication and passion, fierce passion is your willingness to go that extra mile to get yourself in an awkward pose to get that perfect angle, fierce passion is when you drive an hour from your place of work or home to get that super-moon shoot on a workday. Passion is when you read anything you could to improve you skills. You're fierce when you have the audacity to work and exhibit your own creations which deviates from the normal tones and rules, you are fierce when you become an iconoclast with whatever you create. When you create , you should be uncomfortable ,

Anyways, thinking about where I am , yesterday was really productive in terms of getting some initial glimpses of my website. I want my website to be my atelier, a bottega to all my artistic expressions.A lot of work to do. I need to get all the tasks into an executable format.

In Photography, Inspiration, Passion
