The mutual gratification is where the mesmerism of literature lies:

Writing and reading decreases our sense of isolation. They deepen and widen and expand our sense of life: they feed the soul. When writers make us shake our heads with the exactness of their prose and their truths, and even make us laugh about ourselves or life, our buoyancy is restored. We are given a shot at dancing with, or at least clapping along with, the absurdity of life, instead of being squashed by it over and over again. It's like singing on a boat during a terrible storm at sea. You can't stop the raging storm, but singing can change the hearts and spirits of the people who are together on that ship. -bird by bird, Anne lamott.

“O babu, without beggars how will people wash away their sins?”

“Who cares? We worry about finding water to wash our skins!”

-A fine balance (A novel by Rohinton Mistery)

“TIED”

Tied is the end of her sari with her sons’ tattered t-shirt.

So that, on the hustle and bustle of Basantapur, he won’t get lost.

 Tied is hers unconditional love with his every fine gestures,

That she claps and sings and dodges the looks of whom she pesters.

Tied is hers incessant gaze with his glaring hazel eyes,

That she sees reflection of impending happy days that were nigh.

 But, time and again, she takes a deep sigh, because

 Tied is hers frail body to those narrow alleys,

That she begs and shouts that helping beggar washes human sins and fallacies.

Tied is hers wretched soul with the ironies of our society.

That she only found people desperate for water to wash their sins and anxiety.

 Tied is the end of her sari with her sons’ tattered t-shirt.

So that, on the hustle and bustle of Basantapur, he won’t get lost.

Kathmandu style- The flying ninjas in kathmandu!!

This is what we usually get to see and experience everyday when monsoon take its toll in Kathmandu city. The city's poor drainage system and potholed roads are mainly to be blamed. However, there are always positives to take from such rides. The experience is totally breathtaking. Besides, where in this world would you get to fly in bike, while bike itself glides through the “river”?

I wish..one day..one day will come for me to sing that song on that place

[bigyankarki]

For the past few days, a boy has been haunting me in my dream. His cries are deafening. His weepings are clamorous. Even his silent mourning inflicted excruciating pain deep down my body parts I doubt even exist. My brother told me the other night I writhed, all my body was drenched due to perspiration, and I murmured words he found extremely hard to decipher. I have often found myself waking up at midnight pleading for air of freedom, begging to let go this perplexedly strangling thoughts. My lips would have gone pale, and the water would bring no relief to my wounded mind. Days went by but the nights were fraught with inscrutable fears. Bed, which I once considered my haven, was no more cozy. Then one night, we made a deal. I would give him a new place to live on, and a comfy space where his cries would be echoed but only be heard by those who would dare to turn the pages. In return, he would emancipate me. That night, breathing in the aromas of coffee, listening to the music of tapering raindrops on the window and rustling leaves of the tree proudly standing outside in my parched garden, I weaved his words in my notebook with a pen that weigh too heavy to be moved and held within fingers. Outside, leaves snapped free from the tree. Just like that tree, I was relieved to let go what clung for so long. For the first time I experienced weightlessness. As I scratched, I soared high defying the gravity.

There are 7 billion people on this planet who I have not met, and 195 countries I have not visited. Yet I am stuck in this insignificant town, Being pressured into making decisions about my future, When I barely even know who I am.

Divided by countries, united by a flag.

READY TO BE EARTHLINGS.
