Four months have passed away since they last talked… four months for some but for him they were hundreds of gruesome and painstaking hours that have passed since then…
At times he felt happy to realize that he carved his own path..…and did not fall to someone else’s domination
But it’s hard to realize that he could have been much happier than he is today. Not that he was sad then… but the silent presence of someone behind your back gives a strength that is hard to put to words.
The nail from the blue fell when he had to cope with the separation from family and at the same time from the pain of losing his grandfather, all this while he was in 12th standard...With the board exams just round the corner…
The gap of someone who could cajole him at times, one who could lend him a trustworthy hand while crossing the narrowest of the path in life…some one whom he could rely on when everyone seems to be a stranger in this never ending war..Where only the fittest survives……
Even a coin has two sides!! He could see it from a different frame too….let’s just recall the numerous nights that he spent trying to console himself of the loss endured by not only him but whole of his family…. He must have felt proud of himself when he recalled the long dreadful hours that he spent grasping knowledge about this world rather than spending them talking about streams, rivers, girls, families, difficulties….
He could not understand why he was the Chosen One to go through all this. The only logical reason that he could provide his ever questioning mind was such tests were only The Almighty’s path to becoming more like Him.
Quenching the thirst of his heart was however a difficult task… He has still been unable to fulfill it’s want for her!! To this day he still waits for her to turn back and realize where she has left him…
Let’s all hope and pray no-one ever has to face such a situation in his life...
May Almighty Shower His Blessings on You!!
