Let it go



Irrespective of good or bad, our life has become so cool, cool like our foods, our gadgets, our dressings, our relationships, our works. In short, all of us want cool pieces of everything, you know It's so cool. What the modern so cool (badhiya) means is the traditional cheap, fine, strong (sashta, sundar, majhbutti). There is a very little room left for good or bad when something or somebody happens to be cool. Here, we can take another drug of coolness in addition to the already cool prescription and continue our doses of life.

And it is the coolness of just Let it go. Yes, let it go.

Don’t take it as a good advice, like a big-time moral teaching or a high philosophy, like forgiving is divine or something. Take it as Yo-Yo, like raps of Yo Yo Honey Singh, ‘Aunty police bulalegi, Party phir bhi chalegi,’ or anything else as such. The practice of Let it go, will add up a host of new coolness to our life in some easy and effortless ways, in un-cool situations like somebody or something being unreasonable, annoying, foolish, silly, undue, thoughtless, hurtful and the list can go on, creeping the hell out of us. Then, we coolly just need to let it go. 

It does not mean to forgive, to ignore, to avoid the person or situation, but not to stress us out or pull ourselves through, to help ourselves out by just letting it go. For instances, if waiter drops the order on you, if auto rickshaw bargains for just one rupee more, if neighbour is unyielding on sweeping the common walking-way even once, if your close friend passes a comment what is least expected and hurtful, treating the incorrigible house-maid, dealing with discouraging colleagues at work place, and the list can go on, till we are ready to break your head or hit the person in front of you. Then, we easily just need to let it go.

This coolness Let it go of ours can make a foolish image of us before others, they can take us for granted, we might be considered to be careless. We should let it go as we care enough for people not to hurt them, to give them chance after chance to correct them, then to show them how fool they are, not us who have not lost our cool even after their hundreds of un-cool trials. At times, we need to be little smart there to pick what we should let go and we should try our patience. We cannot turn blind to an eave teasing in front of us, to a corrupt personal rubbing public property, to domestic violence, to any harmful person or situation as such.

The coolness let it go; actually can make us upgrade our profile in many other ways. It adds up style, suave, respect, and mostly when we stay cool, we feel cool, we become cool. We don’t have to lose coolness of our lives. C’mon, we can be cooler at least than our foods, gadgets, dressing, vehicle etc. Life will be always un-cool like summer; we have to be cool, like the drinks. We can’t get rid of summer; yet we have to let it go. Hard like the green coconut and cool like its juicy liquid.
