hisaab-e-umr ka itna sa goshwara hai….

Our flood-interrupted lives will stabilize, our house will again become a home, but these are irreplaceable:

~ Rare Books

~ Rarer Photographs

~ Original artworks by the likes of Santosh and Walli

~ An irretrievable part of Kashmir's history in the form of documents and personal effects belonging to the Last Prime Minister of Kashmir.

P.S:

One item earlier on this list has been crossed out – the manuscript of my unfinished historical novel representing years of imagining and a year of pushing pen on paper. Hope to see it in print soon.
