While passing through this burial ground, today morning, I came across this man digging up soil for putting a coffin inside. I just stopped there for sometime, watched him speechlessly for near about 15 minutes. I was thinking about the situation and wondering what was there in his mind. I felt this job is not just a ordinary day-to-day soil digging, but something more difficult than this. It relates with something, kind of a end of life; and when you realize this fact, you need to convince yourself with this fact that you are also a part of it. And it become more difficult to do the job.
I don't know whether this person too quite thinks in this way, but I am sure about one thing that he does this job to earn a life for him and for his family; his spouse, his children. A different moment of life altogether. Labels: Moment of Life |

Life passes by and so does the time. But for those 3 people, everything seems to be passing so fast in front of them,as if they are sitting in a time machine and watching the changes. Those 3 people were sitting in a busy street crossing waiting for the bus.
May be they are new to this city or they are commuters. This is just another moment of life.Labels: Moment of Life, Urban cityscape-a stroll at night |

It was raining heavily,and I thought it would be good to read a story book or a novel, or may be just to gaze at the window to watch the interplay between the wind and those coconut trees; the girl already came to me a served hot tea twice, I could not ask for more, people are out here were very friendly. I always love train journey, love toy trains going through the Dooars; and those Nepali children playing song in harmonica. Those are truly a memorable moments of my life. I am starting a new series called Moment of Life.Labels: Moment of Life |
