Spaced Out
It is here
Life’s end and the begining of a journey which can never be told.
I am scared, not terrified
I am sad, not sorrowful
I will face it.
I will die knowing that there will be those to come and those to go.
I will die in hope
I will die in courage.
I will die knowing I have made my mark.
-Geetanjali Chitnis
I read this poem over and over again
Kids really grow fast… Met Anjali three years back- always treated her like a kid…
Feels good to read such mature thoughts from her. I am happy for you, Atul and Subha.
yup!
Am not surprised. I’ve seen anjali from the time I shifted to bangalore in Jan 2001. She’s always been a smart kid, learns very fast and has that rare wealth in terms of what her parents are. And as the fact stays, girls do mature at a younger age.
She’ll come out with flying colors.
I wish shubha too was on LJ. It would have been fun.
This poem is the next best thing to Sinatra’s My Way.
Must have been the schooling
When I passed out of Aditi, I think Gitanjali was in std. I.
