Zindagi aur maut... ek sikke ke doh atoot pehloo... phir bhi kuch log zindagi ke doosre hisse se khabra te hain... darte hain... Lekin kuch musafir maut mein bhi... zindagi ki umeed chod jaate hain...
Sareeta Di, how in the world do you do this? You simply blow me away... The title was very apt; and it fit very well with the general idea. I admit, I was confused sometimes by the time relapses, but it all made sense in the end. I have to ask, what age are they in your mind as you pen this masterpiece? Personally, I felt them undergo childhood, teens, mid-age and old age. The calm with which you conveyed the chaos in Shiv's heart, was spellbounding. The ending was so... serene? It was tranquilizing... And to be honest, I was not sad at all. It was as though that is where it began... forever... Your emphasis on particular words left me lingering on them as well. In all, you are so talented. May bhagghu always keep his hand over you...
Btw, why does the character of Gauri seem so familiar? From how I know u... I read shades of u in her characterization~
Thanks for the beautiful read.
Cheers,
dc
