The Missing Frame

It has been more than a decade when Timmi left us ( 6th March 1998 ).

There has been many incidents after the date; passing away of Baba (21st June 2006 ), coming of Sonamoni ( 1st December 2006 ), passing away of my mother in law ( 22nd October 2007 ) ; I was fortunate to share some of my ups with my parents, Ritu and our family .

I have moved to Bangalore with a better job. I have got married and have a kid - both of them are very supportive in their own ways. There are somethings Timmi wanted me to become - I hope I have met some of the expectations of her and my parents.

Ma has come to Bangalore and is presently staying with us . She spends her time playing with Sonamoni and is in a better condition than what she was earlier. It has been around two months Ma is staying with us ; but Baba's coming remain unfulfilled .

As everyone of us get busy with our day to day activities , we just find sometime to look back .

Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows.

Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door.
There's a giant doing cartwheels,
A statue wearing high heels.
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
A dinosaur Victrola listening to Buck Owens......
