What a wonderful world !!!!

I am sure this has happened a lot many times to a lot many people.....I mean u hum a song and within a few seconds u here the same song playing on a radio or a stereo nearby.....it happened to me some days ago.

Me and my roomie in those days had  this habbit of going out on our bikes every night to have tea...i know it sounds stupid but almost every night between 11:30 and 12...we just have to take a bike and ride to the railway station to have tea and our daily dose of nicotine   . Anyways..that night as my roomie was driving,with me on the pillion,he said...'Sing a song mate...' and almost for no specific reason,and in fact it was pure irony indeed,I started humming Louis Armstrong's  .... 'Its a wonderful world'..... why I sang it i'll never know....I mean those  days had been hard on me....I was suffering from some kind of Anti-Midas touch syndrome...I mean everything I touch turns to dust.....I just don't seem to get any thing right.....but still I sang ....and then just suddenly,maybe as a sign from the God above a car passed us by......and guess which song was playing.... :-) yep.....its a wonderful world......hey those of u who haven't heard it....here is how it goes.....


I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?"
They're really saying "I love you"

I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Oh yeah


Maybe it really is a wonderful world....ya we do have our troubles.......and many of us,including me,who concentrate on the big picture tend to miss the finer details of life.....and the devil offcourse lies in the details.There are too many things in life to be thankful and be happy about...and really,these are the small-small things in life...things we tend to take for granted which really make us who we are.......and inspite of all the talk of the world having gone to the dogs,it still is.................a wonderful world.Chow.luv.P. ;-)
