A Blessed Life -- The end of the story
Hi friend,
Thank you for coming by.
I hope you have already met with Kaushal, Reshma & Shweta in the previous episodes of 'A Blessed Life' .
If not, start here please.
I hope you were able to rejoice with them as well as feel their hurt.
I also hope you were able to peep into the lives of those affected by one of the major diseases of the future: kidney failure. I hope this evoked some empathy in you too.
On my part, I enjoyed writing this story. I enjoyed going through the trials and tribulations of the players in this human drama. I only wish I could delve deeper into the psyche of the less prominent players. Give you some more details, so to speak.
I also thank you for encouraging me with your comments. To those of you who thought it was autobiographical, thank you. It was mostly that way.
But on the other hand, I enjoy getting beneath the skin of other people. Live him/her for the moment. Feel her emotions, influences, experiences. Walk a mile in his shoes...
But I digress.
It is time to finally end the story of Kaushal.
Here is what I request of you.
Please complete the last part of this story in your own words and in your own style. You are welcome to give it an ending of your choice. Draw from your own experiences. I assure you, it will be a great experience.
Just post it in your blog and add a link back to this post at

There is no judgement. There is no contest. Just write your own version of the ending and have fun. Ask me if you need any help.
I hope you will participate.
Add a comment here, so I can look out for your post.
Please drop me a note when you have posted your ending to the story.
Thank you all,
Hawkeye.
P.S.
To those of you who are going to shout at me for taking this too flippantly,--"Ease up! Its NOT the end of the world."
