Lisa Ray Instagram – Thank you @theboxwalla for all the moments of happiness and solace you’ve given me over the past two months.
Thoughtfully curated boxes of literary discoveries (for me) like Norwegian writer Kell Askildensen who ‘gets to the essence of things in just a few pages’ arrived in the April box along with a newly released Clarice Lispector translation, one of the ‘hidden geniuses of the twentieth century’. To complement, a lovely bijou notebook by @obviousstate. (I almost wrote ‘envious state’) Their arrival gives me a focal point away from despair and the toxic news cycle. 
The beauty box, well, swipe through to see some of the standout discoveries (hello @twelvebeauty, hello @africanbotanics) that I’ve incorporated into my daily regime. And the film box made me gasp : it not only contained the Apu trilogy but also my favourite surrealist, Bunuel. Seeing ‘The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoise’ tossed me to a time when I grasped at the greats, read and watched to enrich my soul. I lost some of that hunger along the way, but now thanks to @theboxwalla I’m time-travelling back to my parents’ sofa, where I spent long hours reading and measuring my delight not in achievement but through the level of immersion in stories and ideas – which formed the foundation for my personal path. 
Perhaps our lives should not be measured in fixed years but in the time we spend in exploration and wonder, in the discovery of words to express our grief, our fear and our love. I have found refuge in small pleasures that ponder the unsolvable, such as when Clarice asks in ‘An apprenticeship’ or ‘The Book of Pleasure’ ‘how does one even try to bridge the gap between people?’

Lisa Ray Instagram – This. Please read and take its message to your heart ❤️ this is not my story, but shared by my friend @amutedstory and as such, brings a poignantly personal, human element to the tragedy unfolding in India on our screens for those of us who are not in India right now 🙏🏼
Posted @withregram • @amutedstory Eight years ago, while I was still living in Paris, I caught infectious mononucleosis. Those who have had experience with the dreaded virus will attest to how much and how long-lasting the fatigue is. In my case, the early throat and gland symptoms lasted for close to two months, but the lack of energy and tiredness stayed with me for a whole 6 months.
.
At the time I had a full-time job and no partner, which meant that I lived alone and cooked all my meals myself. Anyone who has grown up in an Indian family setup is of course not used to being sick alone, and I predictably struggled with getting my energy back. As all Indian mothers do, mine went into overdrive worrying, and frantically called up friends to see if there was anyone who could check in on me (all except one of my non-Indian friends refused to visit, for fear of catching it themselves).
.
One day the doorbell rang and a petite young girl with twinkling eyes stood at my door with a box full of khichdi made in ghee. She held it out to me, introduced herself as a relation of a family friend, chatted with me a bit and left. It was a small gesture, but I had been feeling so alone that I cried with gratitude at her kindness after she left. We kept in touch sporadically but then she moved back to India to start a family and we drifted apart.
.
Today I learned that the same girl passed away after giving birth to her second child due to Covid-related complications. There is no measure to my sorrow at the moment, but I hope wherever she is, she finds peace. To all on social media who are reaching out and helping each other, remember that even the smallest of gestures can go a long way. Be that memory for someone. The kindness of friends is one thing, but of strangers is something else.
