My Little Epiphanies by Aisha Chaudhary
It's her voice. Her raw scribblings. A part of her soul resides there. One of the means to talk to her.
About the book
This is like her personal dairy. She has written what she felt. Her raw emotions. The phrases or the quotes don't describe a story. It's as if she is talking. Sending out her deepest emotions into the world.
Honestly the book doesn't deliver a story if you are hoping it does. This book is a reflection of her mind. It's a place to store thoughts, scribble etc.
About the author

Reading Journey
I watched the movie, the Sky is pink and I wanted to read this book. After watching her story from the point of view of those who were alive I wanted to talk to her. So I bought it. I feel so grateful to be able to buy books whenever I want.
It is a quick read. 75 pages. Her little epiphanies along with her artwork. Slightly emotional and a lot more enlightening. I loved it.
Since it was a film addition, the forward is written by Priyanka Chopra.
I loved it.

I watched the movie, "The Sky is Pink". The movie was on my watchlist for a long time now. Yeah since it was released.
This movie is Aisha Chaudhary's story.
What did I feel? I felt good. It was their life's story. Not here for us to comment on. Instead this movie is one means to connect with these characters (real life characters). Yeah the Chaudharys.
I have ordered the book. I just feel I want to connect with her. Long after you die your art remains in the mortal world. That's how the soul much ahead of its time can connect with us. So Aisha, would you like to be friends with me?

Hey, the book is here. Just got delivered in the evening. I was happy to receive it. The cover feels awesome. It's a hard cover book with coloured print. The book has some of Aisha's Paintings. When through the book. Like reading on air. The overall beginning vibe is good. I'll be reading it after Lanka. Well so far that's the plan. I'll keep updating…

Today I started reading this. They, many readers comment that the book is emotional. Yeah it is. Not that emotional but yess emotional. Just like that meme that says "how do I tell you that my parents are strict but not that strict, still strict but not strict strict." Same feeling.
22 pages into the book and I cried twice. See if you tell me to explain why I cried. I won't be able to. Because even I don't know why. Few sentences, yeah just those sentences make your eyes wet. They directly hit your heart. As if they were writing with wet eyes. I'll keep updating.
And one more… Have you experienced this anytime, that you are reading a book and you hear another voice reading it to you?

Watched a film about you "The Sky is Pink", just found out that there exists a documentary too "Black Sunshine Baby", and now reading the forward, prologue and introduction of this book… It's time to read your words now. Know you from you.
I'll be continuing after dinner…

Finished reading. I won't say "completed reading" because there is a lot to read in between the lines and the white spaces around.
