Hello Everyone!
My heart goes out to the people of Nepal and to the families affected in India. I hope your near and dear ones are safe. It brings back memories of my days in Gujarat, India in 2001. I was there, right there and did not know whom to protect and save. What to do? Where to run and how? The stairs were shaking as we were trying to climb down. It felt so surreal! At that moment, I still remember, the three of us, my mum, brother and I (my dad was in Kohima, India at that time), just ran. While we were running, I saw the slabs and bricks from building no. H were falling heavily. There was chaos all around. I doubted for a moment if at all, we could make it to a safe place. We stood there still as nothing but as mere witnesses of the event. For the people who were there, it must be still vivid in your minds. It brought back a lot of memories and here I pray for your loved ones for strength in these difficult times.
Much love
Suranjita
