oh man. it's so sad. life's so sad. why do people have to grow older? and why do they have to suffer with diseases? and the worst part is when they pass away, so many people are affected :( family, friends and loved ones. it's so so sad. my neighbour's mother passed away today i think and they've left their door open. so everytime i walk out of the house, i see people crying inside. and praying that the deceased will be safe wherever they are. i think i've become really sensitive. i felt like going up to them and offering condolences though i barely even know them. it's really sad that nowadays many people suffer a lot before leaving earth. amma thinks it's all part of the kaliyugam thing. i guess it's true. i've written more about this in one of my earlier posts (last yr some time). how lifespans are getting shorter. sigh. it's really sad.

on the other hand, a birth is so absolutely joyful! ok i'm just stating the obvious here. but seriously. the last birth that i knew of was charanya's sister's kid. rhea! on 14th feb this year. the sheer joy in charanya's face and mannerisms was just so infectious! and really heart-warming. it's a NEW LIFE on this earth. another person who's gonna have a personality of her own, and later on a family. it's the whole life cycle thing.

i think i'm really going in circles. i'm all muddled up right now. so i think i'll just post a picture of rhea which i think is bayangara cute :)

ok bye.
