The oldest beautiful souls that I descended from

13th June, 2016.

I introduced myself more than 5 times to them during our 1 hour long conversation. Already into their 104th year on the earth, they could merely keep stuffs in mind for long, great granny was quite well with her memories though. The great grandpa seemed to be quite active and also very caring and loving to his wife, so was great granny with him. "I don't know, they say we've already crossed 100, she is even older than me, 1-2 years, may be", he said with a frown as he started and a lovely smile towards the ending. Granny spoke out immediately, "Nah, it's just 8 months."

Both of 'em laughed out loud, I could see their teeth well attached with their gums. They don't have even a single tooth off their gums. Staying currently in a temporary house after the massive earthquake of April,2015, they said they miss their family home so much. Pointing his early days as if it was only yesterday, grandpa shared, "We were all so good. I'd been working in fields, I planted all these trees of fruits around, and I'm not able to figure out what happened to us today, it isn't fever either. But it's okay, after some days I'm gonna be alright to get back to those normal active days again." These words of him kept me speechless with only a big smile on my face. They are oldest beautiful souls I've ever met, I'm so thankful for that moment.


Edit: 24th May, 2017. Great granny's divine soul left her body. The whole village, and people even from other villages and districts were present on the funeral. She used to be really kind and helpful to people around, and hence trip to the funeral was a must, people said.
