"..Dil Smabhal ja zara.. phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu.. "

How precisely these two lines summed up the hardest moment of your life! I wonder how the writer felt when he came up with these lines.

"Are you on orkut?" might not be as trivial a question as "Are you on facebook?" anymore. Orkut has a community which says " I can't forget my first love" The info lines speak about how ignorant and unprepared when you fall in love for the first time. You are unguarded and unaware. But is it the same when it is second time? It never is gonna be. You realise the symptoms earlier. You catch the signals of the person. You are cautious of every single flirty line popping out. You compare, you ignore, you reciprocate, you regret. Above all you over think. Left brain is more active than your right this time. You give away sometimes, you run away sometimes.

Well, a person comes right after your first heart break, the receptivity, as we call in marketing is high. You are more prone to fall again. Another hypothesis could be that you will be susceptible which wins over the attraction. However if enough time elapsed, here I have a strong view that you are never over your ex till another person enters your life. Scientifically it takes an year for a girl and six months for a guy to get over a relationship of year long.

So lets say the above mentioned time elapsed and you sense "magic" again. This time you don't fall head over heels, you don't attribute any romantic novel or movie, you simply get alert. That's when you tell your heart "Sambhal ja zara" Its good to think. To take time. To give time. To correct mistakes made before. To analyze. The only thing I say its not wrong. Its not your fault that you can love again. Heart is to love. To cherish life's mind-blowing experiences. Its definitely not your fault that the first love did not turn out to be soul-mate. You need to let it go. Embrace the awesome future coming on your way.

The fundamental question which bothers is "What if this too fails?" But my dear, Schrodinger Cat of Big Bang theory is my answer.

There goes my Valentine post delayed by four days. Sorry, can't resist posting the lyrics of "Dil Sambhal ja.."

DIL SAMBHAL JA.. Sung by Mohammad Irfan, Arijit, Saim.. Lyrics by Sayeed Qadri

Jab jab tere paas main aaya, Ik sukoon mila
Jise main tha bhoolta aaya, Wo wajood mila
Jab aaye mausam gham ke, Tujhe yaad kiya
Jab sehme tanhapan se, Tujhe yaad kiya

dil... Sambhal ja zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu
Dil yahin ruk jaa zara
Phir mohabbat karne chala hai tu

Aisa kyun kar hua janu naa
Main janu naa

Jis raah pe, hai ghar tera
Aksar wahan se, haan main hoon guzra
shayad yahin dil mein raha
Tu mujh ko mil jaye, Kya pata...

Kya hai yeh silsala
Janu naa, Main janu naa

Kuch bhi nahi Jab darmayaan
Phir kyun hai dil, tere hi khwaab bunta
Chaha ki de, tujhko bhula
Par yeh bhi mumkin ho na sakaa...

Kya hai yeh maamla, Janu naa
Main janu naa
