The beginning of summer feels like a dark cloud has covered half of the sun, muting its brightness. Political events from Pahalgam to the Pope’s funeral have set a somber tone with black and grey colors dominating the month of May. While most leaders wore black mourning attire, Trump stood out in blue, a stark contrast. On a lighter note, summer also brings the season’s first mangoes, symbolizing childhood memories of community bonding over the fruit. The nostalgia of stealing mangoes from neighbors’ trees and enjoying them in various forms is a sweet reminder of simpler times. The digital age now offers the convenience of ordering mangoes online, bridging the gap between tradition and technology. However, not all shades of orange bring joy, as seen in the tragic fire at Dilli Haat that destroyed artisans’ livelihoods. The summer season reflects a mix of emotions, from the sweetness of mangoes to the devastation of loss, capturing the essence of life’s highs and lows.
