The calamity called death...

I have never felt so devastated in life. Of the deaths I have seen lately, most were old and frail, and ever since I came back to Kolkata I made it a point to meet people I know. I happened to meet them a while before their death. That memory comforted me.

My cousin sister passed away last night. She was what? Around 10 years older than me. This was no time for her to go away. I can't come to terms with it. I am now really scared of living. If life is so painful...what's the point of it all? How much more do I have to see before it is time for me to get out of this never-ending maze of suffering? And how can life be snatched away from someone so beautiful, so intelligent and so very full of life?

The lioness sleeps tonight... rest in peace Sejdibhai...
