In 2009 we (my late husband and I) visited our old friends and neighbors in Abbotabad. Our visit was a huge surprise for them. We had almost forgotten the way to their home. The previous empty plots of land had new houses built on them. It was no wonder we couldn’t find our way. The area was un recognizable.
While we waited in the drive way, their man servant went inside the house to tell them about our coming. I looked at the garden, and was delighted at finding the old tree stump I had given them was still part of their landscape. It looked enchanting with an urn of flowers on top of it, and more plants and flowers planted around it in the soil.
I felt a pang of regret at the moment, why did I part with it?

Would have loved to see a photo of that tree stump. Someone has just given us a date palm to plant – I dont think these have ever been grown in this part of the world

I am sorry I don’t have any photo of it. I never knew some day I am going to blog, and write about it. Tell you what I will do is to ask them to take a photo, and e mail it to me. I will update it to my post.
