Life goes on.

Almost a month now. It is hard to describe how I feel. I can't say that "I am over it" or that "I am still in a state of shock". I miss Thatha very much.

I think how your family behaves when hit with a tragedy is a true measure of its strengths. The way my family has coped over the last month I am sure is one that would have made Thatha feel extremely proud.

I have two months to go till I submit. We are looking to buy a house. My parents are going to shuffle between India and Australia over the next few years. I am presenting at a conference in Adelaide. I will hopefully have a real job soon. Srini will be working soon. Rama is finishing off his degree and starting honours. My Grandma is looking after my pregnant cousin.

Life does go on.
