Bassa Contemplates..

Been seeing the latest Iraj and Co. videos on tv. Well Macho Kudos!!!

You certainly have the eye for style and music. (or ear maybe..) The whole gang seems integrated. I’ve seen several videos and i downloaded more from www.irajonline.com More than your music itself, its the concept I like. They way you mix traditions on screen. Not many have done this, and many are afraid.. So Kudos again for you ….

PS. I really like the idea of Our songs reaching out to other countries. I had an Indian friend who absolutely went crazy for “Ahankara Nagare” remixed video.

Its hard being a doctor…. Not that I’m complaining. Most of you would already be asking “You’re a bit too late to think about that!”… I’m referring to being a doctor son to my parents… They want all the best for you, but when its your turn to advise them…. nobody pays attention, or “we’re fine…” or “I feel like a rock”…

I’ve often asked them in frustration after my caring but feet stomping lectures go unheard… “why did you encourage me to be a doctor?”…. I only get the “looks”… those sad eyes… which I can’t tolerate.

It’s hard as it is consoling other people, but “Prevention is better than Cure” is a 128 bit SSL encoded message that my parents just can’t crack open. I know they won’t be here forever, but I want them to be as long as they can…. Its simple in thought, yet so complex in action. Another paradox of my life.
