I Think, Therefore I Am

Goodbye, buddy

A recent event has left me completely shaken. A friend of mine met with a train accident and gave in to his injuries.

People knew him for his cheerfulness. Was the life of any discussion. Loved cricket. Was a big fan of Sachin. I never saw a hint of evil in any of his intentions. Was dedicated to his work.

More than anything else, I remember him for his 'chill' attitude. I cant imagine him trying to rush for a train. Yesterday, a common friend was narrating how he had scolded her for crossing railway tracks instead of using the bridge.

It's been less than a year since he got married. I remember very well because his marriage reception and mine were held on the same evening.

He is survived by his parents, wife and soon to be born child.

Let's all try to be a little extra safe in our activities.  Let the extra crowded train go. Do not catch a running bus/train. Do not alight a running bus/train. Let's place our priorities right. It's not worth the risk.There's someone waiting for you.

Goodbye Apurva Nahata. The world needed people like you. It will miss you.
