Ageing Love - II

I am thoroughly confused where and how shall I begin my 89 years old Love Story?

My watch reads 6:11 pm, time for dinner with Chicken Soups and a cup of tea.   

But, to my dismay I couldn't found them. The room was empty. I couldn't believe my eyes and started to look for them around hurriedly but couldn't. I tried to inquired duty in-charge where about that 89 years old patient, I mean Grandpa?

'He was discharged.' Said duty in-charge for the night.

'When, I mean at what time La?' I guess, after lunch, said duty in-charge. I'm further confused about the matter. Hum! Was there any one who came to pick them up La? 'I don't know.' Said duty in-charge in confusion. I wanted to continue further but duty in-charge have left the scene for round check-up in the Pediatric Room.

For the last time I tried to look back at the bed when I first saw them lying silently and sympathetically sharing their little food and a cup of tea.    

I was lost completely in the thoughts of how they would have spent their young life, how they would have fallen in love with each other, how they would have made their 'First Love'? 

Now, I am completely exhausted. At the same time lost in mixed feelings of the scene, I have left the place in confusion with how my life will be 20 years, 30 years from now? 

"Where they went lo, my wife interrupted?" They said, they have no ideas about them, lo.

Peep, peep! Someone’s car have checked into the parking. I made my journey back to home with dissatisfaction. So, many questions stated to knock on my head, Don Williams, Listen to the Radio Music was on play, wife questioning about the same matters again and again as if I know everything, my head started to become heavy. It has started to behave as if it had received thousands nailing. However, after some minutes of drive, we have safely made to home.

I can't imagine, what would be my state at 89? 

At 89, I may not be standing like him, I may be challenging the next realm of life, at 89 I may be taking so many different forms of life, because I am happy to see 89 years old Grandpa still strong  to hold all by him selves. 

I guess he is a man who has stand so many hard life, he is someone who had seen our beloved second King of Bhutan. I think as a man he might have sacrificed all of his life for making his family yet he is alone to challenge his sickness. The fate of our life always encircle within the dimensions of lonesome, being disappointed and nothing more, it's the part of life. 

I'm lucky to find him on my way to patient's room that day. Because I've seen someone who've seen our Second King. He is the man of Second King's Reign. I hope there will be just few people like him who have experienced the reign of 'Four Kings of Bhutan'. 
  
I'm very sure he won't last much longer by age. However, I will never stop to pray God to bless him for his next life. 

I am unable to say exactly whereabouts their journey. Where they have reached and how they have reached back home. But, all I wish is safe journey and peaceful life ahead.

 I am happy to be in, 'The Land of Khengpas.'

Iron Lady of India dies at 68.

It was neither a good news to millions of Tamilian nor to the parliament house. But, she will continue to remain one of the most influential person in politics and in the film industries. Perhaps, she became more than the goddess of Tamil Nadu politics. She has been a greatest asset to her country in her best pursuit. The women who has ruled India more like 'Gandhian Philosophy.'   Jayalalithaa jee She has done every preeminent possible ways to bring massive changes in the life of millions of people and uplifted the Indian society than any other women. She had worked so hard, she had risk every bits of her life just for the benefit of all the Indians because of which she had gained a huge popularity amongst the other leaders. She was popularly known as an ‘ Iron Lady ’ for being tough and firm in her action and ‘ Amma ’ for acting more than a mother for millions of homeless and to the needy ones.’   The best part I have seen throughout her political regime and fil

Golden Words Of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck

King Jigme Singye Wangchuck "...in particular, speaking for myself; my sorrow in having lost my own father is indeed very great.

Goodbye Beloved Teachers

When life has thousands reasons to walk and live, I've thousands different ways to spend my coming holidays. So, does you all my ‘teacher-colleagues’ I've been working so hard for nearly, 280 days round the clock in, educating different lives with different wants, likes and ages. Honestly, I've been so busy and fully occupied for countless hours of teachings, correcting exam papers, assessing note books etc… – and that is called the life of a ‘every tangible teachers’. As a teacher/educator, almost every time - life goes beyond teaching and correcting exam papers. As, we need to engage our students into various fields of learning – going for extra classes, attending club activities, prayers, co-curricular activities, literary activities, cultural programs and so on…and this is the life of each teacher behind the screen. Yet, we get lots of blame starting from the people of highest rank to the lowest. In Bhutan, now a day in the name of suicide case, educa
