So many a times, when life is going smoothly, we hear a sudden news that stirs our lives & feelings & make us think about Life once again....everything becomes so clear. Impermanence!
Last month during Durga Puja festival, we had shared such beautiful moments together, shared our feelings..laughter ..! Till a few days back everything was so real..but today it's not! She is no more with us.Its just shocking! She was Sandeep's ( my elder sister's son) mother in law. Its been only one & a half year since Sandeep got married. We all had gone to Namchi for the marriage, a beautiful hill station in Sikkim. Had a wonderful time there. So happy was she & her husband. They were a peace loving, hospitable & caring couple, I have ever met! In a very short period of time , she conquered our hearts.When I met her this time, she told me that she was going to have a house warming party @ the newly bought flat here in Kolkata.
We plan something & God has some other plans...irony of life...or rather The Life, of which we don't know anything till now. So many things are just unknown to us..Why things happen? A veil that separates us from the Truth. The Truth that all the Buddhas of yesteryear tried to find out.
Not one life is enough to find it ..have to born again & again to find the Truth or may be not...whatever we are experiencing & will experience is all that is, so called Life.
Still in the midst of all, we all will miss her & all those whom we have lost & live only in our memories!
Let they be in peace wherever they are!

Wonderfully written, she was a very caring and friendly person, always cheerful. I wish I could get to know her more. We should feel lucky that though for a short period she was and will remain an integral part of our family.
ReplyDeleteyes, she will remain in our hearts...always.
