Learning the value while you still have it

22nd March, 2017

On the stairs around Basantapur Durbar Square, I was sitting in the morning sun with my newspaper, and a Chinese tourist approached me. I don't know what made her offer me for a snap with her, and when I asked if she was having a good time in Nepal, she replied, "You are lucky to be born here".

Complaining doesn't vanish the problems, but accepting and looking at the brighter sides, at least, helps us move forward towards erasing them.

Every time I do this, I read people’s faces, their way of doing regular activities, their willingness to achieve something. I observe people showing their love, and I observe reasons that make them smile. That’s the only time when I compare myself to those people. And each time I do so, I only feel superior, I only feel blessed to have the life I am living. I just need some spare hours and a spot to sit any place around., I automatically happen to find peace.

टाढै बस मन

ज्यान सिरिङ्ग हुन्छ, भित्री मुटुमै छुन्छ  तिम्रा शब्दको बहावसँगै बहकिन्छु म अनायास रोकिन्छु, अनि रोकिदिन्छु मन यसलाई त ढुङ्गा बन्नु छ  अहँ हुन्न, ढुङ्गालाई ममताले कहाँँ छुन्छ मायामै सबै समस्याको हल हुन्छ  रे झुट हो सब, धेरै समस्या त माया भित्रै हुन्छ टाढै बस मन, तिमलाई त ढुङ्गा बन्नु छ मैले देख्या छु, मायामा मन छिया छिया हुन्छ
