you

I memorize our conversations so that I can replay it over and over again every other second I miss you, every fraction of seconds that I miss you. I got your number on speed dial so that I can live the moment when we use to talk endlessly about everything and nothing at the same time… even though we don’t talk anymore. I own no pictures of you to remind me of your face, also I need no proof to remind me that you exist. Truth be told, I cannot remember your face anymore, all I remember are parts of your face- smiling and glistening eyes, your almost flat nose (man, how you are jealous of my nose), your perfect teeth that you flaunt every time you laugh and scar that compliments you so well…I try but I fail to assemble them to make your face.

4 20 an 6

4 20 and 6! She has seen that many season changes and will be seeing many more. If you didn’t understand what I am talking about; “4 20 and 6” was the answer when I asked how old Aama was. It’s 4×20+6=86, for the ones who is still wondering. One of the Aama who was already 10 10 and 1, refused that she was the age she already was, 101! And she was so full of life and wonderful. Seeing the high spirit of hers was simply amazing.

Well, Our Rotaract Club of Himalayan Patan has this annual ritual of celebrating “Hamro Dashain” .It is a club project where we visit Aamas at old-age home. This year we went to Divine Service Home at Golfutar. There were fourteen lovely Aamas, beautiful souls. It is always a bliss to hear stories from them, my favourite is the one that begins with “nabbey saal ko bhuichalo jada… ma sorah barsa ko thiye, ma paanch barsa ko thiye, ma dash ko thiye…”

Being alone at old age, much worse being left alone is my nightmare but looking at them changes everything. Together they live as a family, like sisters sharing same childhood memories. It is unfortunate that they have to be without a family but hearing them with no complaints makes me happy. Hats off to the old-age homes that take care of all the Aamas and give them a new family even though I wish there were no need for a kind heart to think of setting up an old-age home.

A thank you note

I am thankful  to my dearest friend who pushed me extra mile to get my dream come true, and that dream would be owning my own blog. Well! I got a little more than I had dream of, I got “www.nija.com.np” .Yay me!!!

(You must be grinning right now reading this but please don’t complain if my words are wrong here even though I highly appreciate your editing. You know how much I depend on your expert opinion.)

Cheesy easy

Well, it was easy for you to walk away from the world which we drew out of the infinite lines from our conversations, the ravishing colours we painted on the walls (your favourite was sky blue but mine royal blue… so we decided to paint them with all shades of blue ) .Easy! I say it was for you to get out of the addiction but i still madly get wasted by the strong words, those simple words (plain a, b, c ‘s that you assemble so so well … ) .Easy it would be for me as well if those memories had not followed me in day lights everywhere i go and yeah, definitely not crept in my dreams while i slept.

Too easy I say it would be for me to get rid of you, only if your stubborn heart would stop luring my heart into falling for you…

Happenings in my heart

Like a gentle breeze you flow into my heart…

Tenderly stroking every chambers

Tickling them, making them laugh n glee

Making the feelings so exotic,

so defying it rebels against me .

Then,

like a hurricane you storm out of my heart

Thrashing every feelings that comes in your way

Boiling every single drop of blood in the heart,

Burning and tormenting it in the flames of your ego
