Musicpervs - A boy's journey through words and the mixtapes. I write every Thursday.

Today is the youngest you will ever be

Published December 18, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Everyday, once in a while, breathe on purpose, with purpose or without.
~ Musicpervs

^{Angie McMahon – Serotonin}

Go look yourself in the mirror today and look at your photographs from 10 years ago.

You will know.

You have changed!

Good chances are that 10 years from today you will again be a completely new person.

In 10 years,

things you worry about,

things that keep you awake all night,

things that feels like nightmare,

things you dread,

things that is killing you, hurting you,

things that are weighing you down,

will have absolutely

0 consequences,

0 effects,

0 significance,

0 weight,

0 value.

For,

after 50, no matter how beautiful,… preety you were; your beauty will have zero currency value.

After 60, no matter how prestigious life you must have lived; your status game goes to trash

After 70, the house you’ve built with your hard-earned blood, sweat and tears will not be as valuable when the knee pain starts creeping in.

After 80, no matter if you are a billionaire, your life will be limited to couple bucks of medicines and a strict diet routine.

Gist of it all:

time will never be ‘just-right’,

time will never wait,

time only and only leads us to our aged, weathered, weaker self.

Which is why,

Stop!

And, cherish whatever you have at this minute, the hours and the day.

Work on your gratitude muscle and spend your mental bandwidth all wide-awake, with care and a little bit of harmless selfishness.

Today is the youngest you will ever be.

Sleep on it.

Namaste.

Sthita-Prajna

Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood, carry water.
Zen Proverb

^{Sweet Heat Lightning – Gregory Alan Isakov}

Geeta, Chapter 2, Verse 54.

Arjun, curious, asked — How does an enlightened person

talk?

sit?

walk?

Krishna unpacks — a person of steady wisdom.

There is no high, no low.

No pleasure, no pain.

No sway, no downfalls.

No expectations, no attachments.

No fear, no anger.

No status, no power, no money.

No past, no future.

Absolutely nothing but —

you;

y.o.u.r quiet existence.

Namaste.

Solution Day, 2025

Published December 4, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

There is only one happiness in life — to love and be loved.

George Sand

^{Basanta – Sajjan Raj Vaidhya}

Happy Birthday L❤️VE!

So many beautiful things have happened in the year since your last birthday of 2024, isn’t it?

Feb 14, 2025 happened.

April 30, 2025 happened.

and, I finally get to call you my ‘Wife‘.

April 30, 2025 – Engagement Shoot by *sophiejeannephotography*

Today, being the ultimate Solution Day, 2025 — I can’t believe you’re stepping into your third decade on this planet! 🦖

This day isn’t just special because it’s your birthday — it’s the day that reminds me how endlessly lucky I am to have you in my life,

– to have you as my guiding light,

– to have you as my reliable compass — keeping me in check, encouraging me, pushing me, believing in me, and fighting the fight with me,

– to have you as my mentor — inspiring me to go beyond and giving everything to bring out the best in me,

– to have you as my friend — offering me a shoulder to lean on, a hand to hold, a laugh when life gets heavy, and unwavering companionship through every high and low,

– to have you as my shield — someone I can truly trust my life with, my protector, my safe haven, the one who stands beside me through storms and sunshine alike, holding us both steady.

– to have you as my home to return to!

Without any doubt,

Solution Day — will always be close to my heart, until my very last breath.

Solution Day — is my reminder of how lucky I am, not just to love you, not just to cherish and create moments with you, but to witness your light in the world… in my world! It’s the day I celebrate you, the love of my life, the reason why every ordinary day feels extraordinary.

Lastly, just in case no one has told you lately:

I am also so freaking proud of you:

– for the life you have created,

– for the battles you have been braving,

– for the unsung battles you have been winning,

– for the grace you bring into this world.

– for the light you are!

Many, many Happy returns of the day again, Love.

Namaste.

Mid Thirties. Go Figure

Published November 6, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Wisdom — is not proportionate to the years you’ve pissed on this land.
~ Musicpervs

^{Mannu – Jhol}

Trust yourself.

Deliberate assiduity calling.

People tell.

People talk.

Unsolicited advice rampant.

Unfair judgements nakedly screaming at your face.

Understand, what matters, matter!

You’re at your mid thirties. Go Figure!

Namaste.

What is the most important thing right now?

Published October 16, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Your mind is your biggest enemy.
Musicpervs

Your mind wants to keep you safe.

She tries to make you as comfortable as you can be.

She wants you to have less stress.

less pain, less to none problems,

have a happy life or at least the feel of it.

She wants to protect you from everything that frightens you.

You might be going through rough waves.

People questioning your character,

belittling you.

hurting you.

Visibly your brain is deep fried.

Ruminating thoughts — draining you,

sucking your energy,

turning you off.

These suckers try intimidation,

terrifies,

gaslights,

pressures,

and step over you at every opportunities they get.

Startling you,

keeping your senses tingling.

keeping you wide awake!

The antidote to all these crap is to come-to-senses.

Realize.

Actualize.

Accept, everything is a facade!

Far far-fetched from the reality.

Ask, what is the most important thing to me right now?

Ask often.

Ask when there’s emptiness.

Ask when you sense a drift.

Ask when you have rumination.

Ask when you need help.

Namaste.

Are you grateful?

Published October 2, 2025 By 8ijay.shrestha

Desire is a contract that you make with yourself to be unhappy until you get what you want.
Naval Ravikant

^{Lost Myself – SYML}

These days I have been hooked into the World History Videos.

It is hard for me to fathom the fact that no-one had hot shower until 50 years ago.

The electricity.

The entertainment.

Technology, the amenities, modern medicine, and the infrastructure we have today are mere fragments of imaginations for the ones who lived 100 years ago.

Someone said it right, “We are living like Kings.”

Yet.

We are never objectively happy.

Subjectively worse.

To top it off, the rampant social media; the flex culture in tandem bringing in the worst of us. Nakedly. Ignorantly. Unknowingly.

Are you grateful?

Namaste.

Is, Was

Published September 18, 2025 By 8ijay.shrestha

More is lost by indecision than wrong decision
Marcus Tullius Cicero

^{Chezile – Beanie}

Robin is an ordinary 88 years old man just sitting on a park — all by himself.

When asked about how he feels at his age. He says, “Well… it feels less than 88… I don’t feel 88. It sort of comes up upon me.”

He further adds, “The older you get, the q.u.i.c.k.e.r it goes. and you have to make the most of it.”

There I remembered my Grand Ma.

When asked about if he has any regrets in his life.

He goes,”I suppose, I do,… yes. Not marrying the right girl!”

He digs deeper confronting he had the opportunity but he was too slow. He stresses, “Be Decisive and Go For It if you feel it’s right.”

There I remembered my Wife.

As naked as it can be, there will be one day when my ‘Is’ will become ‘Was’

When, stuff I stress about today will mean Nothing!

When, people or things that mean world to me today will be a distant memory.

Live immediately! One step at a time.

Namaste.

Gen Z

Published September 11, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Life and Fairness are not promised
Musicpervs

^{Alex Warren – Ordinary}

Generation Z or often referred to as ‘Zoomers’ are the ones who were born between late 1990s and ealy 2010s. They are often described as first true ‘digital nativees’, having grown up with smartphones, social media and the internet access.

On September 8, 2025. Gen Z organized a protest against Corruption. Although there are plenty of other narratives that have found its way on the local, national and global media.

Estimated total of 21 Gen Z protestors were Gunned down that day

The videos coming out were heart wrenching.

Heavy.

Unimaginable.

Nepal was crying.

People outraged!

But.

I can’t comprehend how a grown-ass man can pull the trigger aiming for the maximum fatality towards those kids.

I can’t comprehend how a genuine concern to call out on an evident corrupted system can have you killed. Not one. Not 5. Un-official data is:

I can’t comprehend how horrifying it would’ve been for the ones who heard the news of their loved ones killed.

My thoughts and prayers are with parents

who will never see their children,

who will never hear a word … from them,

who will never feel the warmth of their skin.

who will never share their laughter, their sadness, their happiness, their experience.

Grieving.

Empty.

I pray for Nepal.

I pray for the lost souls.

It still has not sunk-in yet.

Namaste.

Not everything in life is in your hands

Published September 4, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

An easy life is mere a concept. Far from the truth. Lie. Destination without roads.

^{Me and The Devil – Soap&Skin}

Not everyday will be a Monday.

Not everyday will be the bad ones too.

Not everything in life is in your hands.

Not everything in life is promised your ways.

Memento Vivere.

Just Start

Published August 28, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

Don’t try to write a great book. Just write a book, then make it great later. Don’t try to build a perfect product. Just build a great product, then make it great later. Your initial jobisn’t creating something amazing. Or even something good.Your initial job is simply making something exist.
Hugh MacLeod

^{Krishna Stuti by Devrishi}

After along day at work and a game or two of chess.

I was melting.

Eyes hurting.

Head heavy.

I wanted to sleep.

I needed to Start.

Just Start.

Kick in the momentum. Flowing..

Bake Musicpervs warm and fresh

Give her lungs to breathe, the heart to beat.

Show up!

Namaste.
