Lot to do before I die

On 29th August, Rich had to perform at “Uttam Mancha (Auditorium)”. He knew about the greatest actor of Bengali Cinema. I was showing him the larger-than-life statue of the great person at the time of entering the hall. I was mentioning him that the auditorium is named after him with my overflowing fondness and respect for the icon of Bengali cinema –
“It is like Rabindra Sadan, Rabindra Setu, Vidyasagar Setu – big landmarks are named after great persons. If you…”
The flow was stopped. Rich asked –
“Why there is no Kamales Sadan?”
Worthlessness was so heavy; it shook my inner sole so deeply that I became completely still - a statue looking blankly at another statue. After settling, I replied-
“Till now, I am only able to make a mark on your heart. I am yet to make marks on the hearts of million.”
I do not think that he understood anything from my answer. But I understood from his question that I have lot to do before I die to make the life more meaningful.
