While I am here

इस पार प्रिये मधु है, तुम हो
उस पार ना जाने क्या होगा?
- हरिवंश राय बच्चन
Read these lines so many times since childhood. We have grown up adoring Amitabh Bachchan and so have our parents!
I recently came across his "much in the news" blog, and the first lines staring me in the face were these.
Very apt and true. While we are here, we have so many things to live for...family, career, love, home, town, politics, school, college, academics, sports, books, dance, painting, music....the list is endless. When we leave here, we don't know what awaits us.
