I would really say people on the streets during strikes going where so ever are like participating during walkathon. Normally on other days if we have to walk even for 10 minutes we go crazy, but this walk after years I loved it. Not just during the office time but all day long there are lots of people walking, either to reach to their destination, or just to have some healthy walk. Nepal has experienced a lot of strike during last short time spam. Strikes have become the “fashion” in the current Nepalese political condition. General strike of Jan 25th 2012, which was demanding for with-drawal of the price hike in the petroleum products which would in fact not be fruitful, was a happy strike for me even though I HATE STRIKES, I loved it. A walk to remember, the moments created which will be near to my heart forever and the company which would be loved forever. The streets were full of people walking both the side and there wasn’t any pollution or loud noises. Cycles and freedom to walk, the best part of me during strike. With a friend I decided to make a walk on the day of strike. After my half-day at work on the day of strike, I met with my friend and after spending few moments in his residence, my friend his brother (who had actually come from Pokhara) and me started our journey from Pulchowk-Sankhamul-Tinkun-Sankhamul and back to Mangalbazar. Indeed there was rush of the people but we were on our own way. Few kids trying their skill of cycle-stunts on the streets, playing badmintons and other few people were just staring the people passing by. The walk for me after a long time was really refreshing for me. “World is a small place to live”, and now I completely do believe in that. I dint meet this fren of mine in school, college or work place. We had a common fren and we met co-indecently. But, that has become a very incident currently. With the sips of coffee we have started to share the happiest and the saddest moments of our life. These days we are trying to convince each other to start the old habits of reading novels again, trying ways of doing the funny things going mad laughing and smiling. During our walk too we discussed from the serious days of our life to the happiest day. It was like a good strike day walking, smiling and above all enjoying a lot. J Friendship is truly the best relationship in the world; especially when u find someone with whom u can share the best n worst both. It was really a long walk, but at the end of the day I was happyJ
