Ever imagined that such a statement could be true?
Well it seems so, as I came to find out while
reading an article in one of the national daily
newspapers. The article was about the author’s
‘petrifi ed situation’ as he lived through the
recent 6.8 magnitude earthquake on September 18 and
his consequent realization of how we have been
wasting time on futile issues rather than being
aware of what is happening with our lives. Yes, if
taken positively, we definitely have been
forewarned, as this earthquake, although of a larger
magnitude than the one at Dharan in 1988 which took
138 lives, was not as catastrophic. And as the
author of the article lived to write his tale, we
too are lucky to have been able to read it.
