Those people in the lil' aircrafts must have felt the moment of truth while looking down upon the Nepalis down below. ;D

Shiva Gautam of Harvard Univ. used to write in sajha a few years ago. His story about 'mother' was absolutely heart touching and I heard it was discussed in the A level English classes in Budhanilkantha School. Does anyone have link to that story? I want to read it again.
