Foolish Me


(Picture: One of my favorite pictures with Raunak which I uploaded on my old site)

My hard disk crashed last week. Complete no-hope-left-to-recover-any-data kind of a crash. I had all the pictures of Raunak I clicked since he was born and I did not take a backup...ever. Initially I panicked, then felt so depressed that I could not breathe, then so sad that I cried every night for a few days.

But then, I slowly realized that we can survive without things that are important and precious to us. The loss seems so unfair. It feels like a part of me has been torn away, but then what is lost is lost. No matter how much you want it back, it won't come back. I just accepted the fact...in more contexts than one.
