Hakuna Matataaa
What a wonderful phrase...
Hakuna Matataaa
Ain't no passing craze...
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem free philosophy...
Hakunaaa Matataaaa...
Two crazy friends - Timon and Pumba
A bindaas motto - Hakuna Matata
Put them together and brew it for an amazing ride through life's toughest times.
Long, long ago, Disney brought these characters to life through drawings (yes, these were hand drawings, way back in 1988, when the idea was formed, although the movie, Lion King, released in 1994). And if there is one thing that instantly relates to these guys, its Hakuna Matata.!
After more than two decades, the song still resonates, fresh, in our memories. Its catchy, refreshing and simple. More importantly, it gives out a very strong message, not just for children, but for everyone, in whatever phase of life they are.
In essence, the phrase says "No Problems", when translated literally from Swahili. It is formed by the words hakuna (there is not) and matata (problems) and its meaning is akin to "don't worry, be happy".

It rather drains us off all the zest and leaves our minds crippled.
On the other hand, if we chose to keep calm, our minds garner the resources to brew up a panacea.
It is up to us to comprehend the cosmic nature of this philosophy and resolve to put to use its capabilities. The day we decide to stop worrying and start thinking is the day our problems begin to fade from existence.
And the best time is NOW.
So, cut the crass, and lets Hakuna Matata... for the rest of our days...
