A SOUL THAT WAS...

I know you too little to comment anything. But knowing you is a part of one the most glorious chapters of my life. I talked to YOU even before I talked to SIR. That was the moment we both had connected somewhere. Though we never talked much but there was always a huge amount of respect for YOU from my side and hopefully an equal amount of respect from your side. Somewhere deep down my heart you made feel really special because you referred my friends as “tumi” but you referred to me as “tui”. My family may have never met YOU and SIR, but they know you too well because I talked about you all so much. I still get up early on Wednesdays and Fridays. It hasn’t yet seeped into that I may never have to visit Salt Lake again. My friends either called you “Ma’am” or “Aunty” but I never did so. Not on your face though, but I called YOU by YOUR name. Because that’s what SIR called YOU, and all I know about YOU is from SIR’s point of view, IRA. You have left us and you have also taken a part of SIR with you. I am too shy to cry in public but I am deeply grieved, and this I say straight from my heart. IRA you will be missed greatly… not only by your family but also by the many people who have known you even by the slightest association. Take care of YOURSELF and take care of us.

A FORTNIGHT LATER...

It’s been a fortnight since the “terrorists” attacked India . A mere group of twenty shattering a nation of hundred crores for three days almost. What a shame! And who are to blame – politicians, “ Pakistan ”, or just simply us? Well, nobody seems to have the right solution. Our dear “old” ministers feel that reshuffling the cabinet will do it all correct. But don’t you think all these politicians are as bad as each other? Do they really work for the country? They just do enough to secure “that coveted” chair. And whatever much they “do” happen only when elections are due. What a coincidence, huh? Nothing much is going to happen if we go on blaming these politicians. These guys are just as bad as each other. But what are we doing? Are “we” taking any steps to better the conditions of the country? We are just sitting back on our chairs and venting out our anger. But is that enough? The present generation (X, Y, Z, whatever you call them!), all they want is to sit in the ultra-modern c...

Yippppppiieieieieie!!!! I was wrong......

To…ahem…Moumita Aunty… You would be happy to know (rather I am happy to let you know) that I was wrooooooooooooong!!!!! Wooooooooh I am so relieved. Well I know you are the best and you will remain the best (till eternity), but my bhabi is not bad at all. She is quite sweet actually. Well, she is my bhabi after all, so she has to be good. :)…… you know what? I had been judgmental a bit too early. Thank god I realized my mistake. She is my brother’s wife after all. So there’s no way I can have a sour relation with her. That would only hurt my brother. And there’s absolutely no reason to have a sour relation with her because she is really good, and hopefully she will get better with time. And, you know what; I am too sweet to have any problem with anybody . Now ask me what I am calling her!!! Nooooooooooo, I’m not calling her RANI , coz someone told me that “Rani is the best”. And I am not even calling her boudi , coz I am telling you that “Boudi is the best”. (now, no need ...

LOVE. FAITH. PEACE.

Last night i tried to kill myself. It was so easy. All I needed was a syringe full of air. I had even taken out the syringe from the fridge. It was right there in my hand. But I couldn't pierce my way into my skin. It takes a lot of courage to take your own life. I lacked that courage at 3 in the morning. I was depressed. I AM depressed. Yet I took the courage to live on. I know, today will be another day of misery and humiliation. Even tomorrow will be just the same. But the plunge has been made and I will have to swim into happiness. These tough times will pass by and I will be smiling at the end. I will have people around me who will LOVE me. LOVE, something I've always yearned for. Something, I never thought I had enough. Something I have never given away enough because I have never had enough of it. LOVE, i still yearn for it. But I have FAITH in my friend up there, that I will eventually have loads of it, LOVE that is. FAITH, I have plenty of it. I exist because my FAIT...
