I Pledge, I promise

Virtue of prayers #ATOZCHALLENGE #1000SPEAK

by Arpita // 25th April 2015 // No Comments
 As I write this, somewhere in the world, a few thousand kilometers away, a young boy is half buried deep in rubble. His body is covered with dust and cement. He is not sure whether his body below the waist... Continue reading →

The daffodil dance

by Arpita // 25th October 2013 // 1 Comment
