Author's POV (Edited)

We as humans when born, set our goals high. We love to achieve the greatest spots and wanted to be successful at every moment. Some were lucky enough to achieve their goals while some struggled for it their whole life.

Some achieved them sooner than the others while some spent their whole lives achieving it. We as humans have so much in mind. We want to do hundreds and thousands of things in one day. We want to travel the world, see varieties of places and enjoyed the delicacies of those places. As humans our wishes and goals had no stop.

We keep wishing and thinking and wishing and thinking. The cycle repeats itself. We as humans think that we have all the time in the world. We as humans think that we can achieve anything.

But it's nothing but a lie coated with sugar paper. We as humans think that nothing can separate us from our wishes and goals. But literally one thing can.

Death can separate us from our goals and wishes. It can make us leave our goals and wishes halfway. It forces us to leave our house, our loved ones behind. It separates us from our loved ones and left them in misery and grief. It is an inevitable part of life that no one can run from. It will come one day.

We as humans sometimes got so lost in the worldly pleasures that we often forgot that we have families at home. Our mothers, our fathers, our grandparents are waiting for us to come home and spent time with them. But we as humans neglected them thinking that we will spend time with them some other day.

But that day never comes. Either, they left us or we left them. Life is unpredictable. We as humans will never know what's waiting for us in the other second. We spent our lives on what ifs. We don't know the future rather we guessed it and try to live our present accordingly to it. We are just foolish people thinking that we have got all the time in the world.

Rather we got very little time and we as humans kept deceiving ourselves that there's so much time we still have. But only after a grave loss, do we understand the importance of time. But then it will be too late.

We were left with nothing but guilt, remorse, regret and loads of tears. We as humans only understand the importance of our elders in our lives when we lose them. It's the bittersweet truth of life. It portrayed us the bad guy in our own's eyes. It made us feel pathetic and kept taunting us that if we had spent more time with our loved ones.

It took a lot of effort to keep our grief aside and board the station of normal life again. Some people achieved it sooner than others. While some kept failing in it over and over again. Some overcome their griefs so early while some kept grieving for lifetime. But one way or another, we as humans had to put our grieves, our problems aside so that we could live in this world. Otherwise, it's people would kill you by their constant taunts, their continuous efforts to let us down.

We as humans become heartless to overcome our grieves and one day we almost forgot that we even lost someone. We came back on the track of life and that's how my friends, the circle of life works...

It was a fine day but only if it was. Shiza was ironing Shah Zain's clothes as he was in the shower. She hanged the ironed clothes before turning off the iron and coming downstairs to prepare breakfast.

It was her routine now. She would make breakfast and dinner for the whole family. Zohra, Lubna and Yusra were finally free from the cooking chores as their daughters and daughter-in-law had taken over them. Lubna and Yusra were pretty happy about it but Zohra was so not.
