Music is my passion.  For me music is just like a moonlight in gloomy night, it is both my expression and my therapy, and therefore choosing a career for myself was never a tension for me, it was as easy as a pie, something that always fascinated me was music and I was fully determined that if I ever have to choose a career it would be surely related to music!

Belonging to the family of "The Goenkas", becoming a musician was something which I didn't even think about in my wildest dreams, I can imagine what chaos would have been created after my this decision but you people know what when I intimated my family that I wanted to pursue as a MUSIC THERAPIST there was no wild objection against this and the reason was the word 'therapist' , an Indian family thing you know.

Well, hey it's akshara again!

Today my heart is in my mouth, and I don't know how to get away with this nervousness.

This day should be scripted in golden letters in my life book if I am successful and if not, be ready akshu to be back in the same track again.

To feel little relaxed I sat on the nearest bench, closed my eyes and crossed my fingers

Kill my anxiety! Kill my anxiety! God just kill this away! Ohh, well I forgot to tell you all, today is the day when I will be presenting my presentation in front of a panel of judges who are four in number.

And if I am able to impress them then I would finally achieve my goal, for which I have been working for years! I would become a certified music therapist.

Akshara, I heard someone calling out my name and when I looked up, I found my colleague, Rishabh standing out there, I greeted him with a warm smile and he too responded with the same

Nervous? He asked me as he sat beside me and I nodded, I liked the feeling when someone understood me without even having to say and he was one of them who always understood me and was there to help me out

Ironic isn't it? He asked me and I frowned

A music therapist is nervous! The one who is there to help the patients to overcome their anxiety is anxious, he said as he smiled softly and I felt a little embarrassed

Akshi, if I would be nervous what would you do?

I will try to make you comfortable to the atmosphere, I replied

And how? he questioned me

'Music' , I replied

Exactly, why don't you try this way out, he said with a gleaming smile and as this realisation struck my mind I mentally face palmed myself

Ohh God! How could I forget this thing, it was so stupid of you akshu, I internally cursed myself

Now don't start cursing yourself and it wasn't stupid at all , it's natural at times to be anxious, Rishabh said and this brought me out of my thinking but pushed me into another thought 'Was I too loud to be heard?'

Akshi, I am your friend and friends can make out what their friend is pondering about,he replied gently

Rishabh, just tell me that you can read minds of people! I said being startled at each sentence he spoke out from his mouth

I wished that I could! He said while looking up at the ceiling probably trying to convey his wish to God

A notification popped up his mobile screen, he glanced at it and smiled

Well akshi, I gotta go, and don't be anxious.. I know you will rock! All the best, he blabbered it in a single breath and was out of sight

I sighed as I saw his retreating figure, I fished out my mobile from the bag and straightway went to SPOTIFY and there from my thousands of liked song played the one ruling the playlist (perhaps the first song of the playlist) .

It was a little yet majestic feeling, ohh how well it soothed my mind, a smile crept on face as I recalled the old memories which soon turned out to be a blank emotion for me, I missed them so badly! I missed my bade papa, badi maa indeed my whole damn family and especially my Aaru

That day i left everything behind, I was shattered, broken into million of pieces which I couldn't even place at right place even after years and years, and I never turned back at them again, 11 years without family was something which seemed so impossible to me but I did it! I made myself strong, I liberated myself from my fear. I recall calling them three years ago last time and then I got to know my little princess Aarohi had also been out for her studies to London, I never saw her except that day when I left for hostel, she never showed me up thereafter.

But I was so much yearning to see her that everytime I used to open the school website and find her ruling the list of toppers with a proud smile, 'A1 since day one' was the only line which came to my mind on seeing my cutie, she was to return back home tomorrow as yesterday her final year exams got over and coincidentally I am also returning back tomorrow, I am so damn excited to meet her.
