But our good friend, philosopher and guide, Seetha, passed away in US today, 6.40 pm, during a surgery of a malignant brain tumor, that was detected some days ago.
She came into our lives as a fresh breeze bringing with her the beauty of nature, the warmth of her heart and the splendor of her words...so here are some of her words that she wrote to me...
"Change is an inevitable part of life !--the Universe may seem huge ...friends on opposite side of the world may seem a great distance .There are many things the friends can communicate ,but even without these there is a way only real friends know ...that is soul connection ...all the mountains and valleys in the world cannot separate real friends whose hearts are as one !
Every leaf has it's destiny ...quiver for a while and without any complaint silently fall on the ground and mixed with 5 elements !That is the ultimate truth of life !
The fact is , eventually the truth is penetrating in to my mind . ...and started accepting it too. Be brave ...it is ok I am brave enough to face anything..."
And so she set and wrote a poem, an Elegy to herself, that's how amazing person she was...
An Elegy To Myself !
Is it ok if I ask you to forget me forever ...?
Is it ok if I ask you to delete me from your memory ?
Is it ok if I request you to wipe your tears for now ?
Yes ...wants to slip in to time's oblivion ...
Like a twisting and twirling leaf falling in Fall !
To reunite ... with the sky ...with the sun and the moon ..
And with the countless stars ...the breeze and the phrase !
Dreaming about losing myself in to the past sense !
I am the person who wrote her own elegy !
Past is the prelude and present is The End !
In between is there anything left ...except me ?
But ...but the main content ...yet to reveal ,
Still to realize ..there the glares of darkness ...
Yes ..a ray of hope ...that is rebirth !
Oh ..no , nappies and nipples ,toothless smiles ?
Apple cheeks and youthful cheers ..
Wow again for me ?! Love to die ...to die
Yes ...to live again ...to love again ! Love to die !
She was such a huge fan of Pratyusha Banerjee and Anandi. She loved a girl like she loved her own daughters, so many times she fought for her. She wrote so many poems, write-ups, stories, OS/SS that brought joy in our hearts, and we enjoy in her writing immensely.
She was such an enchantress with words. In hospital she took two Prats siggies that Biki made for her, told her daughter to transfer it on her i-pod so she can watch it when she feel like it...So Prats was there, till her last day...smiling her gentle smile for Seetha...ā¤ļø
RIP Seetha, my sweet friend š, I know we will meet again...ā¤ļø
If she would be here, I am sure she would say this:
