June 8th
My world revolves around June 8th.
I was born in 1950 June First. Exactly 6 years earlier my brother Kamal was born on 8th June. Both of us born on Thursday.
On 7th June 2012 when Kamal I called him Chhorda died after completing 68 years. I am 68+ today.
On 1988, 8th June we, Chhorda me and two of his Bridge friends were waiting room outside operation theater for my son to be born. We did not his sex. It was great storm outside. I never witnessed such a storm in my life. Name of the nursing home was EveLand Nursing Home. We waited and waited. At 12:10 AM on 9th Soham was born. But he remained critical for 11 more days.
On Seventh June of 2012 I was woken up from sleep by phone call from Chhoton that Chhorda has died. I never expected such a outcome. Then for many hours I remained awake being told the struggling doctors trying to revive him. The worst experience of my life.
I am for last few days seeing TV serial Parts Unknown of Anthony Bourdain. I shall be re-seeing the same I know. I read he hanged himself on 8th June. He was 61 years. What is remarkable about Anthony is his willingness to eat anything another human being eats or drinks. That is choice of food and he appreciates. Along with food he discovers many histories of places from his host.
I have read so many books and watched so many films. But I wish to watch his story again trying to discover something that I have not seen earlier. He did not try to make any episode interesting. Even when he talked about his addiction and hopeless situation. He never talked about him essentially. He never asked any question that had any depth or knowledge.
