Music Only Makes Me Stronger

"Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music."

Jimi Hendrix

The power of Music is often understated, you may probably even live out your whole life without loving any other person but you can not live your life without loving music. For me Music isn't about loving any particular genre or any particular band or artist, it's more than that, it's life. 

Music is one Universal language that you don't even need to speak, listening is enough most of the times, and most of the times you understand it. Music is the thing that connects the world in its own way, you don't have to belong to any particular religion or any specific community to like any kind of music. 

It has the power to bring happiness out of the grey shades and to make one drowned into nostalgia, It can make one cry through one's smile or smile through the tears. It can lift you up from your deepest griefs and make you remember all your broken dreams.  In short Life would be as incomplete without music as it would without your partner, 

I have been lucky that I am born in a family which love Music, I have attended a lot of Indian classical music concerts and I have felt great at times listening to them. Music has eased many difficult ways and I hope it will do so in the future. It's also a blessing to know an instrument to play, to be able to play what your heart wants is as divine as meeting God himself. And I am not talking about myself here, I do play Guitar but it would be a lie if I say I play that good. 

It's never gonna be enough to write about Music. Music is GOD.

Manchester United: More than just a club of football.

Manchester United, one of the world's most famous sports team, let alone the football clubs. Its amazing to think how just a name can mean a so big part of the life to someone that one can not keep it out of the head, and I am not talking about myself, there are millions of people like me who share the same feeling for a football team. Although I will write about my love only and How I fell in love with this beautiful club, may be many of the readers would relate with this story. Let's start then....

My name is Chandrakant Tanwar and I was born in November, 1990 in a small city called Bikaner in India. Small town means the entertainment devices like TV were rare in early 90s. The first TV was a black n White, I don't remember the make or anything about it. The first color tv was a 14' Philips Tv, It was bought just before the World Cup Football 1994, so it was tagged that the TV was there for Football. Although my family have fans of all sorts of sports. Obviously in '94 I was a child so I didn't understand the Football, However in WC'98 there was a vibe around my home, so I used to watch some game and I remember Nigeria was my Favorite team. In final the game was between France and Brazil, it was late night IST, so we were all supposed to sleep early and then wake up for the game. Rumor has it that I didn't wake up, I don't know if my family bothered to wake me up though. So in the morning I got the news that it was a great game and France won it. It got me all frustrated and I kinda stopped watching football until the next WC in Korea-Japan in 2002.

In between this period my dad had gone to UK during in 1999 so I had this a little connection with UK and I wanted England to win the world cup, So I started following them and came across to know David Beckham, I don't know why but I just fell in love with his style and felt a attachment with him, There was so much fuss about his haircut. I also liked Michael Owen, Paul Scholes, Steven Gerrard and others but I just loved Backham. I actually cried when they got out because of that Ronaldinho's freekick. After the world cup I still didn't know about the club football. Then I don't remember I somehow started watching football and saw David Beckham playing for Manchester United and fall in Love with United. I was just 11 then. I watched all their games that season, I further fell in love with other players too, Ole Gunner Solskjaer, Ryan Giggs, Fabian Barthez(yes)  and the Manager himself. We won the league that year, and also Beckham left United that year it was a shock to me.

And the rest is history, I have supported United through its glory days and their darks days (which are lesser). I didn't know any other United fan until I came on the social networking sites, and I am really glad to have found so many United lovers like me.

It is my first blog ever so I wanted this to be about Manchester United, I hope I will write more about United and other things too.
