The DEATH

I attended a funeral last week, it was my first experience of seeing grief and pain from so near. Scientifically it is very clear, a human being comes to life and will survive till his body can sustain the wear and tear of life and finally the life ends and we name it as DEATH.
Can this fact be taken so easily? if life was just about Birth and Death, why do we have so much of Love, pain and grief?
We develop so much bonding with ppl around us that more than the feeling of death, parting our ways from our loved ones is more painful.
Being a woman, I can imagine what my aunt who passed away last week went through!
A woman struggles so much for her children and never expects anything in return.she never complains because she knows and understands that her child belongs to her and is a part of her.

And it is so painful to see her go! It is like after that continuos struggle in life she sleeps peacefully undisturbed.

My heart is heavy today! and I end my page here with a beautiful song !!

Gadi bula rahi Hein..Seeti baja rahi hein!! Chalna hi zindagi hein!! Chalte hi za rahi hein!!

26/11

It's two years that such horrifying thing happened . More than 166 people losing their lives, deserted families, agony, grief ,haunting memories .What have we done other than feeling bad for the one who lost their lives? The attack being telecasted every hour on television, discussions with the biggies in politics-is this the way we are going to fight against terrorism?
And the biggest questions is when we have the culprint with us, why is he still not punished? Instead he gets a royal treatment.
How long are we going to take this? can this never end? The questions go on and on....

 I have decided to light a candle and be a  part of the pain the families of the victims are experiencing today.
