Change

  

There are a lot of words I can use instead of changing. ‘Fearful’, ‘scary’ ‘different’, ‘uncertainty’, ‘unsure’, ‘difficult’, ‘separate’, ‘emotional’, ‘dissimilar’ or perhaps the rather cliché: “inevitable”. Regardless, they are all related to world change. We feel all of these when there is change.

Change can be good and change can be bad. Change can be positive and change can be negative. Change can be personal and change can be political. We have been facing change ever since we knew how to breathe. And yet, when we feel a change coming into our lives, we hesitate. We hesitate to step out of this comfort that we have made ours. We hesitate to make a different routine. We hesitate to adapt to a new environment or a new system even though we know in our hearts how relieving it would be. We would rather things stay the way they are or the way they used to be: much simpler. But there is no denying, that there will be change whether you want it or not.

There will be changes in you and everyone around you whether you like it or not. It’s a part of life and it’s part of growth. Change changes you. Accept it. Embrace it. Welcome it. And here’s the deal with the change: change can be hard, but if you have the right people who can help you deal with it, change does not seem to be as hard.

Rajamati

I think we’ve all heard the song of Rajamati growing up. It is so popular that many people in Nepal claim this is the only Newari song that they have heard. The song was written some 200 years back. The first few lines go like this, which I’m sure you must have heard of, unless you’ve been living under a rock: Rājamati kumati, jike wasā pirati Hāya bābā Rājamati-chā Rājamati mabila dhāsā Kāshi wane tela bubā Hayā biu Rājamati-chā. San dhāsā kuli kuli, mikhā dhāsā bālā bālā Sakumi yā mhyāy machā lā Khwā dhāsā tuyu khwā, khwālay niga tee du Tāhā Nani yā Rājamati-chā. It is said to be written by or rather from the perspective of a man who was infatuated and in awe of the beauty of Rajamati. He describes with great admiration: her hair, her eyes, her complexion and the little moles on her face. However it is unknown who the writer of this beautiful song is. The song rushed into popularity after it was played in England in 1850 when Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana vi...

Best Places for Breakfast in Kathmandu

The only reason I love sleep, more than the reason that, well, it’s sleep, is that it’s like time travelling to breakfast.  Yeah, no kidding. Breakfast, the most important meal of the day. Whoever named that meal breakfast, was straightforward. I don’t know who named lunch and dinner, but the breakfast guy? He cut in straight to the point, didn’t he? Because breakfast is literally breaking your 8-10 hours fast. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper, they say. So, you don’t really want to compromise on breakfast now, do you? Now, this is no backlashing, but in many restaurants around town, the most breakfast things they have on the menu are omelet and toast. Yeah, I was disappointed too. There’s this restaurant in Mangal Bazar, where my best friend and I met up early morning. We decided to have breakfast. The restaurant overlooks the courtyard so it’s a beautiful place to talk over a cup of coffee or tea. She and I ordered a cheese ...
