so completely different.

Her horoscope said...

...that she was destined

to be a shining light.

But when you lose your

23 year old daughter like this...

...that pain is impossible

to describe.

There can be no bigger pain

in the world than losing one's child.

At times, I felt like dying too.

People tell me that Neerja isn't

dead, she has become immortal.

I console myself...

...that my Laado's become immortal.

But what about the haunting thought...

that I'll never

see my daughter again.

The night she was leaving

for her last flight...

...I kept nagging her repeatedly.

"Do this...don't forget this...do that..."

And she left.

I wish I had taken

her in my arms just once...

...and hugged her tight.

Just once.

When Neerja received the highest

honor for bravery, the Ashok Chakra...

...President Gyani

Zail Singh consoled me.

He said...

...that there is no other

mother in the country like you.

You should hold your

head high with pride.

You should be proud.

"By sacrificing her life while

trying to save the passengers..."

"...Ms. Neerja, displayed exceptional

bravery under unusual circumstances."

Harish and I must have

good karma...

...that Neerja was our daughter.

Even as she was breathing her last...

...she taught me how to live.

There was a small child on the plane,

she told him...

"Tell my mama..."

Neerja's mom.

She sent a message for you.

That...

"Pushpa..."

"I hate tears!"

"This fleeting moment coaxes you

to think beyond yourselfu"

"Go on |iving.. go on |iving.."

"Forget the sorrow of strangers."

"Let the sun shine through your window."

"Go on |iving.. go on |iving.."

"Beneath the feet is co|d.."

"..the earth which beckons us to sprint."

"A lively fragrance in the chest of time,

it leaves everything behind."

"Let the sands of the past slip

through your fingers."

"Allow yourself to be

in the here and the now."

"This fleeting moment coaxes you

to think beyond yourselfu"

"Go on |iving.. go on |iving.."

"A slice of laughter for taste.."

"A twig of life for keeps."

"Go on |iving.. go on |iving.."

"Overcome the hiccups and hesitations.."

"This is the plea of time."

"Why die when you can live?"

"Drink the drops,

it's the rain of your dreams."

"Let the streams pave the paths."

"Let yourself go beyond the light."

"This fleeting moment coaxes you

to think beyond yourselfu"

"Go on |iving.. go on |iving.."

"This fleeting moment coaxes you

to think beyond yourselfu"

"Go on |iving.. go on |iving.."

"We'll look fear in the eyes."

"We'll pass through the path of danger."

"We've set out with passion.."

"We'll look fear in the eyes."

"We'll look fear in the eyes."

"When it rains from people's eyes.."

"..it marks the arrival of a new season."

"My dreams taught me to live."

"The night of life has passed.."

"Bright and shiny is the morning!"

"To hell with you, fear.."

"Your time's up, fear.."

"Let's get straight buddy,

fear is nobody."

"Open your eyes, no shut.

Tell fear to get lost!"

"Tell fear to get lost!"

"We'll look fear in the eyes."

"We'll pass through the path of danger."

"We've set out with passion.."

"We'll look fear in the eyes."

"We'll look fear in the eyes."

"We'll look fear in the eyes."
