Gurdas in Nainital circa 2k.
One of the naughtiest of my batchmates in Gulmohar School, this fellow has made it big in life. He was a baby-faced guy back in school, but now he has turned into a turbanated and bearded fellow. This image is a shocker of sorts for me!

Deepanjan has dug himself deep into my mind (which is essentially just empty space).

To be honest, I carry very faint memories of him but it looks like our relationship is now headed for a long innings. Good for both of us .... only an idiot can enjoy another ;-)

Things were so abysmal initially that I had lost the will to live. Acrid in everything I did, I was immensely angered by time phlegmatically flowing through its cadence. It was as if Dad meant nothing to anybody. What right did people have to live the way they always had when Dad was no more? Why was much of the world still
