Bhuwan Jee,

Another rainy morning of late July would have been attributed with same old shit if your letter hadn’t pop upped. I want to express my immense gratitude for remembering me so respectfully and so non-critically. I was always used to be the platform of your criticism. I still remember, they were sharp, they were logical and they were very genuine. I always acknowledge your great effort to shape some crucial parts of my mind.

I still hate Kathmandu, as I used to. But you may know I am proudly living a paradox. Being real, your absence has not dismantled any of my dreams we discussed together. But being more real, your presence would have made things little bit easier. Anyway, it was you who taught me to think big, think smart and think alternative.

There are so many things that I want to talk to you when we meet. We will talk about our ‘failed’ project of “ODD Nepal”, we will talk about Om Jee, Tashi, and other talk-worthy figures of Shepherd College of Media Technology, like Principal Narendra Pal and many others. We will talk about how we wanted to be changed and how we have been changed. We will talk about further possibilities of another venture like ODD Nepal. Of course we will talk about Mongolia, Thailand and other nations that matter to us. But like you, I am also not sure when we will meet again.

Bhuwan jee, I am sorry that I couldn’t reply your previous mail and you bothered to find my website and post a comment about my whereabouts. My words of describing the professionalism and job satisfaction are the same as I told you when I met you last time. I am tired of translating the transcripts of authorized dealers of western propaganda, where abduction of a Jew in the Middle East and the pregnancy of a polygamous Hollywood actress is the greatest news and the ethnic cleansing in Southern Nepal is nothing. At least you are doing great. A multinational Human Rights Defender, working in Mongolia.

I had been to Shepherd College few weeks ago for some documentation. I met your brother. He told me that you were safe in Mongolia in that time of the state of emergency.

At last, I am grateful for the love and respect that all of your family has shown towards me.
Wishing you great success and BIG dreams ahead,

KamalKumar
