Suffocation might well be one of the most uneasy, weakening feeling a human being can experience.
Have you ever thought that love can smother you from inside, spread itself as a gelatinous fluid through your innards, its exhausts clogged, and make you gasp? And no, I don't think the answer is to shower that billowing love inside you over all around you, love all, no, this love is just not that kind of love. This love is rather something you nurtured within you for a long long time, something that evolved with you, something that is too much inherent in you and something that finds expression through someone dear, very very dear. Where can that love go, if the someone dear is taken away from you, when you are helpless, and couldn't have done a single thing to prevent it?
On February 11 Saturday, Bhavaniamma, a retired school teacher who gave birth to her much awaited kid at the age of 62 had her loving dear taken away from her. The apple of her eye that she kept under her wings drowned in two feet water when she was away for a few minutes. In her long long wait for him, she married at the age of eighteen, after twenty two years of marriage her husband died of cancer not giving her a kid. She married again, but was not able to have a kid then too. She made her husband remarry to see a kid born, sure one was born, but she was driven out then, not even being allowed to see that child. Then at the age of sixty two she went through the test tube procedure, and carried her longing in her womb for ten enduring months and gave birth to her wildest joy in life one and a half years before. Can you imagine how much she would have loved him? Can you imagine what she must be feeling when he is gone, taken away from her at the flip of a second?
I hope, just hope ... that among tons of people who would tell her that its fate and past and we can't change it and to come into terms with it, there is one .. just one .. who would not say any of these things .. but who would hold her chin up, smile at her and kiss her forehead.
