Sambit's Father passed away

One of our dearest friend, Sambit's father passed away on friday evening. On saturday moring, we went to Puri, Swargadwar, for the cremation. We stayed there till about 12 o'clock and then we came back. Even if I did not want to, I still could not resist to ask myself -- why all this fuss, when life ends like this. 

This is something that happens everytime you go to such places, I guess.

Have you ever been to a cremation ground and stayed there??
