A special remembrance of the dear departed at SJC Sambalpur

Our salutations, adorations and prostrations to all those who have gone ahead of us, who have gained more experience and who are before us as ideal beacon lights in life. We paid our homage to all those who are not visible to our physical eyes, but who lived on this earth-plane and who now experience a different state of consciousness. We have lost our 2 precious students and 3 committed  Teachers Susmita Panda, Mrs. Lucy Prakash, Mrs. Shikha Mahapatra, and our benefactors  Dr. Anup Satpathy, Dr. Joydeep Kar, Dr. Sachin Dash, Mr. Karan Jethi (ex-Student our advocate ), whom we owe so much. Our few parents also went for their eternal reward leaving our students orphans. We invited their families to join the special prayer service for the remembrance of all who are no more with us. We remember and miss them in every function and ceremony conducted in the school. We miss you. A little too much, a little too often, and a little bit more every day. No matter how long it’s been, there are times when it suddenly becomes harder to breathe; it comes in waves, ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the water is calm, and sometimes it is overwhelming. All we could do is learn to swim and show our solidarity and show some comfort. We gave time to grieve over and spent time wiping their tears the silent language of grief.

The reality is that we don't forget, move on, and have closure, but rather we honor, we remember and incorporate our deceased into our lives in a new way. In fact, keeping memories of our loved one alive in our mind and heart is an important part of our healing journey."
