“Grief is cyclic in nature. At first it is so continuous that it almost seems like a never ending sob that is stuck in your chest – unwilling to let go of it’s grasp on you. And then slowly a break in the sob – a moment of respite as the drudgery of life takes over, only to return more fiercely than before. I know, the time between grief and drudgery will increase, and as they say – time will heal all wounds – but that time is not here for me as yet. I wonder if it will come at all,” he added.
Praying for his mother’s eternal peace, Vikram shared: “My gratitude to all who shared the pain with me. And here is my prayer for her as she finds a place with the source.
