For too long now
#Eid
has come with heartbreak and anxiety. But like every year, we pause, put our best face on, express gratitude for what we have, and pray for better, fairer, happier times.

The only way to get in touch with anyone in Kashmir right now is if you're lucky and they have a BSNL connection. There is no mobile internet. You cant even make a phone call unless you're calling a BSNL number. Imagine the implications of that for a minute.
Dedicated Oxygen War Rooms will function at State and District levels with representatives of Police, Health, Transportation, Disaster Management and PESO. O2 stock is being monitored in the Districts by Collectors. O2 module will be included in Covid Jagratha portal.
First mango of the season folks. Pakistani. I went to the shop to buy something else, followed my nose to find these. Uff. So good. (Is this a Sindhri or a Chausa but? Cmon MangoTwitter, enlighten me.)
Doesn’t feel like Eid. Death, loss, separation, injustice, pain, uncertainty. And yet it’s Eid. It might not seem like there’s much to be grateful for, but we’re still here, and we can’t give up on hope. So,
#EidMubarak
. May this year be better than the last.
Gentle reminder that in all of this Kashmir still has no access to high speed internet, no way to access rapidly changing information about this pandemic.
We finally found (a little bit of) time for our winter shoot. And I don’t even look like I’d only slept 3 hours the night before! Courtesy the very talented

India doesn’t allow for dual citizenship. So if someone holds a Canadian passport they can’t hold an Indian passport,right?They can hold an OCI card,which gives you all but political rights (should we call them *non-political* rights?).So you can’t stand for office.Or vote.Ya?
Just the right time to remember that no matter where you’re from, what you may or may not believe in - in all of our stories, in the end, good prevails over evil, light dispels darkness. May it always be so.

Everything is terrible. I can barely breathe. Then I panic thinking isn’t that one of the symptoms! Then I realise it’s only my old friend - anxiety. This close to a panic attack. I clear my mind. Think of all the love in my life. Love old, & new. So so much to be thankful for.
It’s only when you suddenly encounter light that you realise the depth of the darkness you were in. Shukur. Hamud.
