Missed Moments

After going through the irreparable loss, trying to attempt and overcome the incident.

I was trying to find some of the last pictures, moments, voice recording and any video,  only to find that i have some pictures and not any recording where i could listen to some of her songs she used to sing.

She is not a seasoned musician but used to practice singing on the daily basis for about twenty years as much i can recollect.

I used to come back from office will find her practising  her standard list of ten songs she will sing everyday.

According to me,  she was good in singing and will be asked to sing during the golu and other occasions as i can recall.

I could not find a single recording of hers to listen once,  so i realise the magical moments of her songs have been missed and have nothing to listen to. What i have is some last conversations i had with her which just got recorded by chance not planned. We often do not realise all this in the everyday fast pace of life we are moving.
