"I was the only person in the entire household (my chachos, dad and rest of cousins included) who could actually high five him, an advantage of being the eldest grandson I suppose. I vividly remember the day I “fived” him for the first time, my mum and chachoos (uncles) were visibly shocked but somehow I knew I didn’t cross any boundaries." but in a different way whcih ofcourse dint crss any boundaries either. P.S: i dint mean dat u misbehaved :P i meant that i didn’t discuss stuff like this…

Another one of life many ironies. @Tazzy Somehow its complicated and simple at the same time. There are things which we all feel and there are emotions which are local to us only. And what do you mean by "not like wrathchild?" @Rabia

P.S. One good thing that came out of this post is tht you were finally able to come out of that vacuum of not feeling anything ....to feel is human :) You know actually the best part is like having History live in front of you…the eyewitness of the times that have been.And I am impressed that your Nana was so up to date, very cool :) May Allah(SWT) rest both their souls in peace Amen.

The real thing is that we need to realize the importance of the people we have in their life time.

I know it is hard, but this itself is a test for you, trying to move on but not forgetting them. Its been 2 years that my grand dad passed away and still there are moments when i miss him or would like to be in his presence. I guess one can only look back and reminiscence. allah un ko jannat naseeb karain ! Very moving!! I know it is hard, but this itself is a test for you, trying to move on but not forgetting them.

They say when you experience something tragic or any loss(huge in magnitude) you some how learn to move on. a ver dear friend of mine lost his mother last week. the loss was so huge that one cant express in words or even tears. I hope we are able to give the amount of love and respect to our dearly beloved that they actually deserve while they are with us. Touching.
