Maaaamaaaaaaaaa

Aajke ma tomar kotha khub mone por chhilo...
memories of you...
I want to say one thing about my mother, that she fought till the very end. Not everyone can see death coming imminently and still say - amake shanti te morte dao. Let me die and go away in peace. May be she always had a nascent death desire within her,.. or maybe that was just the way she was destined to exit from this most thankless and unfair life, this birth that was totally unfiar on God's part to have put untold sufferings in her fate. That she fought though her whole life and even to the end is testimony to the iron will that lay beneath the beauty that was my Ma. She had her follies and failings but they were those of an indignant child, a child no one pampered or cared to understand. She was envied by all and admired by so many.
I just wish you are very very happy and peaceful wherever you are, my mother. And i want you to know that i know you will always be with me and when i die, i will once again come and rest my head on your lap and go to sleep a peaceful sleep. Amake chhere kaeno chole jete holo tomar ma?I love you very much Maaamaaaaaaaaaaaa.............
