Happy Anniversary Ma

Its a year (as per the tithi) since you left us Ma on 06th July 2015.

Today, 24th July 2016, we had a batsorik puja for you. My school friends were there, talking about you and so were some of my other friends.

All of them miss you.

A year gone - Life is still not the same

Remembering these  old bengali songs.

It is exactly a year back,  06th July, 2015,  when I was in a flight, flying to Delhi to see the lifeless body of my mother, for the last time.

People say time is a healer. Not sure. Will time make me forget. Everyday, when I think of something at home, I turn back and realize that she is not there.

Every evening there is a lump in the throat and eyes are moist.

Miss you Ma.

Ma I miss you

6th July 2015. I am not sure I will forget this day easily. I hope I do not forget this. The worst day of my life. This is the day when I got the phone call from my brother. He said MA NEI (Mother is gone). That was it. I could not digest this. I still cannot. This is not what I would have thought of. Ever. My life is empty. Today 3 weeks later, watching the Indian Idol 2 kids sing songs about parents. The girl Ronita sang Lata's Tu Kitni Achhi hai. I could not take it any more.
My throat chokes. But I cannot cry. Lest my father get hurt. Its just me and my father now.

Ma. Who will scold me now. Who will cook for me what I want to. Who will listen to me when I want to confide. Who will watch movies with me and share all filmy gossip with me.

Ma. Be happy wherever you are. Shower your blessings.
