The weeping Brother

-
Welcome 2015!! It took me almost a month to come up with my first post.

 “Was it him that never wanted to see his dying siblings, or was it his heart that never had the courage to bid them farewell or was it the influence of other that made him to stay away from all his siblings”… he was a brother who never had the chance to face his sibling at all their good and bad times. Blood is thicker than the water, a universal saying which sometime proved wrong!!!
In the recent time, I came across a person who lived the life of a lonesome despite having numerous siblings. A brother to six other siblings, he was the third eldest among them. Those were the days when they ate over a pot of rice and played in the same ground. Life isn't that easy to lead. Every new day takes its turn and land up with something new. More than three decades ago he became completely isolated from his own siblings. What is the use of living when you don’t have time to share you moments with the people you love??... But he had no choice.
The last time his two siblings were sick, he couldn't make it to visit them. On their dying bed, they called his name. They called to their brother who never turned up. They waited for him, trying hard to breath, in every breath they breathed, they called his name. Everyone waited for him, for he never came. They passed away with his name on their lips, tear in their eyes and pain in their heart. After spending your entire childhood together and sharing the love of same parents, how could one stay away?. I personally couldn't think of such situation.  Imagining such situation hurts and gives so much pain. We never know the reason why the weeping brother never turned up. There must be a good reason for it. May be he had no courage to bid them goodbye; a good bye which can’t be said with the word “see you again”.
Life is not always a fairy tale. Only few are fortunate to experience the fairy tale story. The brother hasn't met his siblings for so long and before he could express his emotion and reasons, they left him forever. I just wonder how he would be feeling inside, crying inside and killing himself with regrets. Life has given him a chance but he missed it. He turned out to be the brother who has missed the meaning of having siblings and valuing the worth of the so-called relationship. Yes! The weeping brother must be feeling low but he has no alternatives now…

Friendship Day Special

-
The first Sunday of August is considered as a Friendship Day and this year it was on 3 rd August. Many beautiful quotes flowed on social websites like Facebook , Wechat and Twitter. I started receiving amazing text in my cell phone. The world celebrated the day with beautiful words for their friend and I didn't stay away anymore. I joined the people in wishing all my friends a Happy friendship Day. There is no better way to start my first post of August with this piece. I sincerely dedicate this piece to one of my friend. Who says opposite gender can’t make a good friend. Actually that was my notion during my schooling days. A decade ago, back in Haa I first met my friend. Who would dare to talk with him; he was then the most serious guy we have ever seen.  We weren't really a friend during our schooling days. I was too scared of him and I always made myself to stay away from him. I hate encountering him on my way. We could hardly see him with a...

My Unfinished Dream

-
I left my cell phone at home, and didn’t recall bringing my Lunch Box. I nearly missed my bus. I tried opening my mail, Alas!!! It says “Wrong Password… Try again”. What’s wrong?? Nothing was going well today. “Was it really going to be my Bad Hair Day…?” I whispered to myself . I gazed around and looked for someone to talk to. Just then my eyes were on an orange envelope lying in my unzipped bag. My hands were faster than my thought. Quickly I reached to the envelope. The address clearly says it was for me. Actually nothing can excite me than receiving a letter and going through it. I was just a second away from opening it when a shadow appeared in front of me and found myself talking to the stranger. I left the letter back in my bag unopened. It was a week ago I received a letter. In the rush for some work I forgot to go through it. The ray of summer sun was brightly peeping through my bedroom window. It was Sunday and it seemed a bright day. To the left of my pillow, my phone...

My Unrevealed Crush

“zaii……… kay Namesey meay soft du…..” I thought. I closed my eyes to feel the voice of a stranger seated behind me. It was 9 th April 2012. I was on my way from Chubu hot spring in Punakha. After around four hours of journey, finally I reached chuzom; the confluence. I caught a cab and sat inside. By then, I was fully exhausted like an old tire. The cab driver was looking for few more passengers. After an hour of waiting he got 2 passengers and now only one to look for. Dusk started to pull in and my heart was beating rapidly. We were about to leave when a young guy approached our cab…… The voice of that stranger was soft. He was tall. Every girl dreams to fall for a tall, dark, and handsome guy. It was 6:30 pm when we started our journey towards Haa. The silence in the cab was broken by the guy. It seems like he knows the driver well. They kept on talking and I humbly listened to them. I was lost in my fantasy world. I wanted to talk but I was nervous as hell. For the first tim...
