In the coming days, Alpa and Aarihini thought of one another often and tried to make sense of their meeting. It was an encounter which seemed entirely random yet was hugely significant for both of them as they pondered their next steps in life.
Alpa would smile as she imagined what it would be like to be Aarihini, being a part of all of the action going on in the city – She must walk down the streets with the confidence of a queen!- So in control of her own life and so bold in expressing herself in the city where exciting lives are being lived by so many!
Aarihini would close her eyes and transport herself to Alpa’s place in the village – what still seemed like a totally different world! – and imagine what it would be like to be Alpa – She must constantly feel fresh and energetic! So free to enjoy the beauty of nature and so much a part of where she lives!
While each of them mistakenly thought that the other’s world was somehow better than her own, neither of them were jealous or depressed. Alpa and Aarihini welcomed these new desires that sprang up, filling their heads and hearts with possibilities, ushering them from darkness to light.

Shot on Ilford Delta 100 Film – December 31st, 2015_

This is a long time companion. Originally a Mexi-Strat – but the only thing left original is the body and jack plate ; ) The sticker – Somedays Best – well, that was my last band. We played our last show in 2009. I miss performing and the music I made with this group of musicians . . . Anyway, feeling a little nostalgic on this Friday night . . .

But today was different. Today Aarihini was so ready to speak with whomever she could that she immediately said hello to the woman, who warmly greeted her back. Aarihini was thrilled to make contact. She knew how painfully lonely she felt, but she didn’t know how ready she was to share her story and her feelings. So many things that she had all but forgotten came rushing out of her as she spoke to Alpa – it turned out that those things inside of her were just waiting for the right person to reveal themselves to.
Alpa had a similar feeling upon first speaking to Aarihini. She had felt like there was nothing left inside of her, but once she began talking and feeling the understanding of her new found friend, she realized that there were worlds of thoughts, ideas and feelings to share!
As the women talked, they discovered that both of them had lost their mothers and they both felt stuck in routines that kept them from living the lives they had wished for themselves when they were younger.

When Aarihini got back into the car, she looked into her rearview mirror and began to put on her red lipstick out of habit. After a moment, she began to laugh at herself for putting on lipstick just to wander around some villages.
“Who out here would even see me to notice”?, she thought. Then she realized that hardly anyone was there to notice at home, either, where she lived and worked mostly alone and hardly ever went out.
Aarihini thought back to the days when she started wearing bright lipsticks as an act of rebellion – it drove her mother crazy, but she liked the way it made her feel extra confident and assertive. Nowadays, it was just a habit, like so much else in her life.
Aarihini thought about how she wears that bright lipstick now – Not to go out on the town like she used to, but rather to sit and work through all hours of the night, many times not meeting anyone at all.
