We all wish and yearn for a time machine. It could be to either erase the mistakes of past or to have a peek at the future. Well...we donno if one exists apart from in the Back to Future series movies.
But have’nt you realized at times that simple things take us a trip down memory lane and almost serve as time machines? Simple things like old photo albums, videos, childhood dresses, alumni functions, get together with friends and so on.
Recently I happened to accidentally stumble on the famous Mile Sur Mera tumhara on You-Tube. Haven’t you realized that music is one amazing vehicle for time travel? All of us have at some point of time in life loved some song and later move on with another new song. Then when we happen to listen to it again...old memories come rushing in.
As of now...you all watch this video and tell me what you remember about this video. I will tell you about my memories about the same in my next post :-)

Mile Sur Mera is a favourite of mine. I still remember when I was a kid, how I used to sit in front of the TV and eagerly wait for this song to come and how I used to sing it adding my own ‘lyrics’ wherever I didn’t understand the words being sung (which was almost all the lines ;) ) :D
