An Ehmuk’s Journey Down the Rabbit-hole of Memories

Upon encountering the Urdu word ehmuk, the author is transported into a nostalgic reflection on her late grandfather, Pitaji, who was the central figure of her formative years. She credits his erudition and passion for learning with shaping her deep interest in history and literature, which ultimately led to her career as a writer. Ultimately, she concludes that while he is no longer physically present, his influence remains a permanent part of her identity and memory.
