Nemo
For a long time, I had contemplated on writing about him but somehow was not able to put forth my thoughts…..
He came into my life during the New Year 2006,introduced by my neighbor as a New Year gift…and splendid it was…..’cause I had never thought that I will have someone like that in my life…..His very presence in my life convinced me that life is full of unexpected twists and turns.
Brightly attired with a variety of colors, there was grace in his every move….
Taking care of him was a huge responsibility cause being the youngest in the family I never had to actually look after another life…
It was hard to decipher his feelings but surely there was excitement when I went near him….I hardly ever talked to him but would make sure that he was around every day.
This affair lasted for a span of three months though everybody expected it to last for a month…
He breathed his last on 29th April…..I was not there to say a good bye and he went away leaving behind some pleasant memories.
His name was Nemo…...my pet fighter fish

I was too involved in that matter to comment upon this. He was my favourite too, and yesterday only I came to know about his demise. At times I really felt that a fish bowl is not a place where he should belong to.
I really miss him at times.
So, he is gone, is he not?
Well, do not feel pain when they go and do not feel pleasure when they come. That is the way of least resistance.
I know, I sound a bit rude here - but that is how I think of everything. It makes my life much easier
