“Everyone around the village has been sad this whole time. At first I would also be sad but I was tired of sitting in the corner and only thinking about what is lost. So I thought I can’t sit in sadness. I have a family to look after. I have little brothers and sisters who depend upon me. So I just keep a very strong heart and go to work everyday, singing happy songs.” (Buddha Gurung, Barpak, Gorkha)
