LUMBINI WITH PUSKAR

I had visited Lumbini before. I had seen the temples, rode the boat and burned my skin under the scorching sun. This time, my visit to Lumbini wasn't to remind myself of the Pancha Sila but to meet some of my friends living in Terai.

The pandemic, the lockdowns, the online classes were events that we never faced before. In such situation, nurturing the friendship that we would have grown in physical classes when we would chat, have launch together, play games, hangout around campus and study side by side was uneasy. That's the main reason why I wanted to visit as many of friends, travel with them, live with them and understand them. Through difficult times, I have tried to do so.

Fingers crossed, I just hope, someday, some of my friends would come to my house and call me just like I did when I reached theirs.
