Many things have happened in the past month or so. Hence many reasons to write this blog. However, eschewing every other development, it is the personal bit of the news that I would like to write about right now. Six months ago, on 3rd of November, my youngest uncle died an untimely death. The news came around the evening on that fateful day of Wednesday and we had to leave for our ancestral village immediately. It was after almost 3 years that I was going there, however, not to be warmly received by my ever-smiling uncle but to mourn his death. What followed in the next 4 days was a sobering experience. Fast forward to 6 months later, on 4th may, Wednesday again, the sad news of our grandpa’s demise reached us in a similar fashion around the same time.This time around, my sojourn lasted for 2 days-I could not have stayed longer. However, the raft of experiences and observations was no less. I noticed that, in our extended family, we the children have suddenly, almost imperceptibly, grown into adults and our parents have grown older. There were many other important observations which I will keep sharing here over the period of time. I got to go right now...catch u later....
