What is the one thing that hurt you the most?
“Once a friend told me that I would end up alone sitting in a bench when I grow old. And as soon as he said that, it took me to that place.
It was not a pleasant picture and it hurt me.”
What did you do?
“Nothing. I just keep to myself. I feel like everything is temporary and no relations really last for ever. I just have a certain way of things. I like to be left alone but I am not lonely. It’s just me.”
– Prakriti Pokharel, Mandikhatar, Kathmandu
