Questions piled onto questions


First it was the threat of a suicide.

Then his parents persuaded him to marry the girl he didn’t love. He tried all possible means to love her. But his heart never opened to her. But he married her anyway. Saving someone’s life was a better option, he thought. And when his supposed wife became too possessive, he could bear it no more.

Only regrets. 

Now when he finds someone he really loves, he seems to be losing that person just because he is married. 

Then the only option left is a threat of suicide. Will it work? Will she marry him? Will his wife go and hang herself?Will his parents listen to his heart this time? 

Questions piled onto questions. And no answers.

    I hope you are not planning something dreadful.
    Coming to one issue of yours, which i disagree- "Married man can't love" This human rule makes people unhappy. Why can anybody love someone else after marriage? heart is big enough!
    IF the guy in your article is allowed to be with the both then perhaps he will be happy! So god willing let the man have both!

    Gosh! Quite complicated. I hope the guy finds peace with the one he loves and his wife finds another to love more. How else otherwise can two lives be saved?

    I never believed it when someone said he/she would commit suicide. But then, I started reading about weekly suicide cases in the newspapers and it used to make me feel uneasy. But again, I am not sure our folks have committed suicide in the name of unrequited love. I will have to update on that. Perhaps some of you can help too.

    No one should use 'suicide' as a means to blackmail people. I think that is utterly selfish and heartless! Looks like more interested in jeopardizing other's life by taking your own.Very cheap!Don't you think? :)

Utpal Academy - Bhutan's first All-girls High School

Academic Block Welcome to Bhutan’s first all-girls school. Isn’t that wonderful news to all our parents? Certainly, as a parent of a one-year old daughter I am excited about the coming of a school exclusively dedicated to the needs of girls. Our girls need special treatment, which we can for sure entrust the responsibility to Utal Academy, Paro. Dinning Hall I really like the name – Utpal – in Buddhist world, Utpal is another name for lotus flower, which is believed to grow from mud and yet blossoms into a beautiful and majestic flower. It stands for purity and many deities are depicted holding flower Utpal, more prominently Jestusn Dolma, the Goddess Tara. Symbolically, it also stands for the transformation of our girls. What an apt name for the school! Hostel Room The Principal’s message posted on the academy’s website promises providing our young women an “opportunity to participate fully in a wide range of extracurricular activities to develop skills and qualities that...

Community of Bhutanese Bloggers Conceived

And finally it happened. I must say that it was by far the most attended Bloggers Meet. In the past we had bloggers agree to attend and cancel at the very last minute. But on June 24, 2015 – almost 100% of bloggers, who confirmed came. I would like to thank everyone for keeping his/her words, especially those who had to come all the way from Wangdue or Paro. Thank you! 35 Bhutanese bloggers met in Thimphu. We were honored to have the presence of senior bloggers like Aue Yeshi Dorji and Dasho Sangay Khandu. The meeting assumed more significance because of their presence. Equally, we were happy to have many young bloggers in whom we see so much enthusiasm and potential. On top of many things that transpired during the Meet, one of the most significant outcomes was the unanimous decision reached to form a formal group of bloggers, a platform aimed at encouraging and inspiring more bloggers around the country. The members decided that we will call it Community of Bhutanese Blogger...

When FIVE is more than FIVE HUNDRED

Bhutanese parents complain that our children are exposed to so much foreign content and that they might soon forget our own root. Some parents also feel that their children respond well and better to stories that have Bhutanese characters and places in them. That's why the need for more and better Bhutanese books in the market. And we have only a handful of people who are committed to making this happen although the financial return is almost none.   Bhutan can boast of not many writers. Here writing or publishing aspect of writing is an expensive hobby. In the first place, it is difficult to convince people to publish their writings and many leave it before they are halfway. Publishing is a complicated process. But here it is even more complicated since our publishers are not publishers in the real sense of the term. They would only 'publish' (print) school textbooks and in that they are only being wise - averting risks to their businesses.  Recently, the whole...
