THE 'MOMENTS' OF LIVES ................

The ‘moments’ of life…………..

I am thinking right now about the moments that I hear the news of the moments of other lives around me, my friends, my relatives, my siblings, country mates, incidents, news of political and apolitical lives around us.

We read and we like watching things. People enjoy talking their moments of lives.

A moment is so huge, uncountable and Immeasurable or I can say even unexplainable and unimaginable too this we can apply in both in memorable and forgettable areas of life of our lives.

The recent news, the yesterdays news ( May 21, 2012) the moment that we heard the news of releasing general Sarath Fonseka from the bars of the jail, this news brought a moment for their family more than for anyone else, a precious moment of their life I believe. This is a moment for both other political and apolitical spheres of the country and globally too.

That is how that ‘moment ‘or the news became wonderful and memorable, a politically valid moment and etc…..

Things and moments have both the apolitical and political value/ worth.

Apolitical moments mostly are dealt with heart matters of all kind, the emotional, parental relationships, friendships, neighborhoods, other relationships such as teacher student, a customer trader, religious etc ….. You can think of many relationships as such and related moments of your life I believe.

It is interesting to know the ‘validity’ or the validness of a moment.  Some moments of lives around us we can measure and give judgment looking at things from an eye of an outsider. But other things are totally outside of the eyes of the outsiders. So those moments become too personal moments of ones life.

The moment that a political candidate hear of the news of winning the ‘presidential title’ how much of validness, happiness, that ‘moment of news’ may bring in to their lives, the families etc. what do you think? Think of the opposite, the anger, the sorrow, the lost, the losing of people of their own groups, the losing of property, disappearing moments of smiles of people, the ‘good morning or good night wish of your own neighbor etc. ……

A ‘moment brings’ thousands of things material or emotional, countable and uncountable and that may also take away so much of other things from us or from our within I like to think that way.

A news of a moment winning a title of sports, or otherwise what ‘heaviness’ that the ‘moment of winning’ may hold when it come to country related things.  If you view something in a holistic, in a unselfishness manner what importance those things hold for a country.

Ms. Susanthika Jayasinghe the moment of winning ‘an Olympic medal’ or SAAF medal, if you think of our yesteryears Mr. Julian Bolin’s moment of winning a swimming events and Ms. Deepika too .......

The moment that the particular commentator aired the news of we winning the world cup title back in ’94….. Those are personal and country moment’s immeasurable moments that we all embraced together as a country. Can you go back to those moments of ‘our country’ lives for a moment.

The moment that we read the news of maestro Amaradewa wining the ‘Magsese (please pardon me I don’t think that wrote the word correct way)  Our ‘aakaasa kusuma’ Ms Malini fonseka winning the title of the best actress award for her unchallengeable performance in Mr. Prasanna Withanage’s film and our ‘machangs’ winning appreciations of international audiences those are personal moments as well true but they are ‘country moments' more than anything else.

Those are so memorable award winning moments of our most admirable, respectable artists of the country.

The moment we hear the news of defeating the most ruthless terror outfit ‘the LTTE”  we made ‘kiribath’ and kewum kokis and we all shared those moments and kewili pewili even with out tyrants ( personal) even we shared a smile with our long angry neighbors

‘ api dinuwa ne’ ‘Prabhakaranwa allala neda’ those are friendly moments too. Did we have time to think of our long years of maintaining anger in a brilliant way at those moments of lives? NO!

People have family moments too. That we all know personal and work related.

I really can’t forget ‘history’ mine and country’s I think those things are like my ‘breath of life’. The moments of my personal history I like embracing them even now. So history matters. That is very true that you sometimes forget the current moments of your life when thinking of the past moments of your lives.

The day or the moment that our people heard the news of our official ‘independence’ announcement our people celebrated. Independence is a vast subject to talk about and it has many dimensions I know that too. May be in 1947 or is it 1949 our neighbor got that official title of winning an independence, the closest naighbour of our region ‘India’?

I like to think how Nehru’s and Gandhi’s celebrated such moments of their political, apolitical news like that.

We really can not forget the ‘global moments’ too

How can it be possible we are a member of international community and we are not isolated from them from that the huge parts of world communities? Though we are a huge and a tall nation of all ( comparatively)

I honestly and only like to embrace the memorable moments of my life current and past. Not the moments that brought bad news to my personal and carrier life

The moment that I heard the news of my father’s illness of him having a lung cancer. 

What do you think of such moments of your life have you ever experienced such 

moments. May be not but I don’t think that you are unaware of such feelings of others or the moments of lives of others. I don’t like to talk and think of such moments again though those moments of my life are inevitable and those moments are unforgettable in many aspects of my life.

The moments of education, youth, adult, the carrier, hibernating periods of lives, all these are important moments of life of a person. The moments teach us lessons and add things to our lives in many aspects or dimensions of life.

An old friend coming back to one’s personal life again is a different moment I like to think.  Call or a message from an old friend that you not heard for years and years…. such moments have some sense.

Adding moments and deleting moments of ones lives both are inevitable, memorable, forgettable, unforgettable, we can think of all sorts of things in these moments of ones life.

How many moments of our lives that we really and truly remember if just close our eyes for few moments can we think or remember all the moment of our lives? No I believe the human memory holds such position in our lives to be honest. (In My opinion)

The moments have different shapes and sizes too. The colours, the values all these things differ from moment to moment and person to person. Am I right?

The life gives us different titles at different times/stages of our lives. We all hold different titles such as a child, a student, parent, lover, citizen, politician, customer, Passenger, pedestrian, co – worker, listener, reader, member of something, I can think of plenty like that. How about you?

I don’t think that I can really stop talking about this topic about ‘moments’ I can talk of this topic any moment and many times, in a non stop way…….

Some moments are ‘money’ moments or money oriented some others are emotional non money moments. I like to add.

We think sometimes our moments are decided and pre written according to our religious faiths, destiny, fate or numerological, astrologically …… that depends on people really their levels of understanding on such and such issues or moments of life.

Every moment we are passing can be a moment of our lives/one’s life. We, the people have the right to give the moment to some validity or the opposite, some freshness or some colours if you will. We manage our moments I believe no one else can do that.

I just tried to analyze the moments of lives giving it my way of thinking and touch and style. I am sure you may have your way or some other way of analyzing such things or your moments of life.

The moments are embraceable and unpredictable

Take care of your moments of your life!

Just a moment! The moment you thought of ‘gossiping’ you lose the validity of your days’ moments.
