Art refers to a diverse range of activities from mankinds and artefact, and may be used to explain broad subdivision of culture composed of many expressive disciplines. But here I am just focused in the simple meaning of it as a skill; an ability or talent to live a life well or better than the average. Might be many of you arise the question here what it he the benchmark? Happy to do the brainstorms in this!!! .

July the 10 Tuesday, 11, 12 and 13th the Friday I was forced to take classes and to give the exam of life. Still I am not sure it was my life, his life, her life, your life or their life but one thing is sure it is life.

Two couples; together makes five people; Ah! Yes one of them has a baby boy of age 3 were always thinking and analysing about life, trying to make life better than the average. One evil* day; day with full of happiness and pride they decide to migrate their life in west; I should not say all but almost every citizen of developing country dreams for it, and yes it is reality a bitter reality. (One of the diplomat has said us “ Dhukha ko sagar ma dhamilo khusiko sapana bunera lahurina lagechhau dukkha lagyo, kasko lahe lahe ma lagyau timi haru ??? ”)

One of them from the two was (MR H) an Engineer passed out from Pulchok Engineering College and recently completed his masters too. He was one of the entrepreneurs of Nepal, used to be a consultant and supplier and IT expert for different Nepal’s Government offices. He was so energetic and hardworking normally people used to give his example for achieving the better life than average in Nepal.

Another was just 4 years younger with positive attitude (MR B) and dreams to hold some identity on his own. Passed his bachelor and was about to complete masters from Nepal. He was one of the luckiest in his friends circle the reason was he don’t have to be jobless for even a day from the day he has completed his SLC, (must be unromantic and scheduled person ) used to work for one and only one of the biggest IT company in Nepal, trust me it was in deed from every aspect and every prospect.

Both so aggressive but positive attitude holders, Ah! Mr. Yes… You know some guys they can never say No to any one, always agreed to others and be a part of the Joke Mr. Yes.

July the 10th – Mr B heart full of heavy conflict between +ve and –ve attitude, utilizing the lunch time at work, applied visa hoping the near future will have less spikes in life.

July the 11th – Mr H happily with his wife and son with more Mr Yes attitude than the pervious, applied visa hoping the near future will have fewer spikes in life but positive spikes in business. His main concerned was to go abroad and transfer the technology back to Nepal, Ah! Was by profession IT consultant and was heavily involved in e-Governance but his focused in better life than the average so that she can give the better future for their son.

July the 12th – Mr B and Mr H were proud of themselves their education, experience and work status so far so good in Nepal Ah! especial proud for being the one of the tax payer citizen in Nepal, sounds sarcastic but it is the reality, though no one knows where the tax goes and on top of all they got VISA approval, the beauty inside this has second part too and that is their wives, actually they don’t have their legs in earth and butterflies in their stomach untouched, unexplained and not describable happiness Oh yes you are right you can only feel it and no one can explain it in words – Khusile ko kunai sima nai thiyana. They are so happy thinking all theirs dreams will come true from every aspect from every prospect they don’t have drought that now they live a life well or better than the average.

The Night – Yes; July the 12th Thursday Night was the Night they have happily enjoyed with toast for living a life well or better than the average in near future definitely after going there. (I am sorry for using this word because who knows who will go where? Though I am not pessimistic ). The last night they have been together, the last night they have shared themselves together and the last night ever lived together in Nepal and of course for the betterment of life than the average.

July the 13th – The evil*, I will left this on you to decide if the 13th and Friday the July 2007 is lucky or unlucky day of their life.

Early in the morning there was a strike in the country by Maoist and no one was allowed to use they vehicles, so as the rule of thumb no one has did that and Mr H an Mr B were also not the exception. Mr B rushes to his office on foot about 1 and ½ hours walk to office from his home, and was busy wrapping up the project dealing with and has informed officially about migration to management. It was lunch time as usual he hang out with his friends and had lunch and get back to his normal schedule of work. Normally in official hours people used to get so busy with their stuffs that they really do have time to think about personal life and other stuffs like family, don’t it sounds odd but what the reality is Mr B was not a government service holder. At 4 O’ clock, here another amazing believe is 4 people 4 days and 4 O’ Clock might be myth but …still strikes in my mind … because the

July the 11th @ 4 O’clock – B applied for Visa
July the 12th @ 4 O’clock – H applied for Visa
July the 13th @ 4 O’clock – B & H Visa approved
July the 14th @ 4 O’clock – Black day of our Life

he got the phone call in his cell phone the message was “Mr H has a car accident on the way to Manakamana Temple” B cannot believe lots of questions in his mind how? Why? When? The he heard the voice full of misery “Please come to B&B Hospital as soon as you can”

Then and there he rushes to B&B no vehicles so he took taxi and reached there…

Unbelievable not trustable if I closed my eyes then I still can see that scene. Five people in three different room of emergency cannot recognize any one of them because they are all wet by their blood from head to foot. I went closer and ask how you are then I came to know who is who and what happened. I apologized cannot describe it.

Out come of Black Day Mr H died His father has brutal chest injury and still struggling, Mum two hand is not working and waiting for her days wife after the 13 days of another trauma because of traditional Nepalese culture now in theirs dreamed place but alone, son there in Nepal with mother-in-law Mr B and his wife too in same place.

Now they three Mr B His wife and Mr H’s wife are in dreamed place but still the question is will they have an ability or talent to live a life well or better than the average in near future? How and when will their dreams come true? Will these spikes of life slow down and be smooth in near future or even rise because the life ahead is too complicated OR who knows future is uncertain and what had happened is happened for best …

The spikes of life to be contd. …
