Katha Parab 2021

Life is uncertain! Hopelessness, despair and gloom everywhere!


All have lost someone near and dear, Engulfed in grief and fear. Locked up in homes or reaching out to help to show you cared. Forced to live in dark , testing times, feeling unnerved and scared. Well, Hold on my friend! This is not the end. Let there be Hope in every Heart...then there shall be Peace in every Home & Smiles on every Face and the world will refresh and restart!
