Detachment...
Death came knocking
I turned back and looked at all the hard work I put in for years into accumulating all the material wealth, toiled day and Night for it , somehow wisely, I shrug it off and let it go, give up all of it in a single Moment!

Death is happy!
I turn to my husband sleeping next to me and wonder what would he do without me? For half of his life, I have been with him, who will care for him the way I do? Then I realize anyway one of us is going to leave before the other, little sooner or later, it's ok, he is a man and he can tend for himself.
Death is happy!
The thoughts moved on to son... Till an year ago, he did Not know how to Mix dal and rice or wash his undergarments, now he is managing most of the things on his own, in no time he will find a girl, he will find love and start his own life, someone Bright and beautiful will fill his house and life with all the nourishment a mother is capable of providing.
Death is happy!
I turn to the other side and look at the daughter who is 13. The first thing she does every day after coming from school is share her day at school over the phone. She cannot keep any secrets from me. Sharing her aims ambitions goals weaknesses, failures without any shame and guilt. She needs me to help her discover her beautiful side. She needs me to correct her, keep her motivated, to help her identify the real from the fake; she needs me till her core gets strengthened. She needs me for some more time...
I say no to death, and fight it off
I open my eyes with tears I can feel the wetness in my hair behind the ears. I turn to my left and right to see the man and daughter sleeping peacefully, drop a text to the son to check if all is ok and I try to go back to sleep ....
How it is possible to practice detachment, the world of women is her family her relations and emotions for them....
One should be given ample time before they are told to practice detachment!
One should be given long life to fulfill their responsibilities before being told to practice Detachment.
