Bidisha Roy
My mother Tripti Roy was my best friend ever. I’ve never seen a simple, honest, affectionate person like her who dedicated her entire life for others. When I was a kid, it used to make me unhappy that she is giving equal care to everyone around her. Obviously, it used to make me angry as I was not ready to share my mom!! Then when I grew up, I realized how fortunate I am to be a child of a mother who is loved by so many people more than their own mothers!! She was a brilliant student who got letter marks in mathematics and Sanskrit in matriculation. My father Prof Dhiranando Roy was very proud of the ‘most intelligent student of his life’ who eventually became his life partner. She was a renowned teacher and taught poor students till her last. She used to help so many needy families without any publicity. A devotee of Rabindranath Tagore and Swami Vivekananda, my mother was a true ‘religious’ person who firmly believed that ‘We come nearest to the great when we are great in humility’ and ‘Love is life, hatred is death.’
For me, she is the epitome of humanity and will always remain. Miss you Maa!!!
