bus hadn't arrived despite a 30-minute wait in the freezing cold. To illustrate, I
added an emoji of a snowflake and a snowman from my iPhone and sent them to his
Android phone. Thankfully, those emoji didn't get lost in translation, but I panicked
for a second wondering whether they'd appeared as a love heart or a poop on his
phone.
The reason I panicked is that just a few weeks ago I had spent far too much of my
time creating a story made completely from emoji, which I sent to a group of friends
via Facebook Messenger. Not one of those friends replied to say how awesome my
story was (and it really was awesome) and I soon discovered why: on their Android
smartphones it made absolutely no sense whatsoever because the emoji were all
different! I was devastated.

Spring was the season of green mountain and meadows, blushing snow and an
expanse of yellow mustard flowers in the fields around our village. On Radio
Kashmir, they played songs in Kashmiri celebrating the flowers in the meadows and
the nightingales on willow branches. My favorite song ended with the refrain: 'And
the night angle sings to the flowers: Our land is a garden!'. When we had to harvest a
crop, our neighbors and friends would send someone for help; when it was their
turn, we would reciprocate. You never needed to make a formal request weeks in
advance, somebody always turned up.
During the farming season, Akhoon, the mullah, who refused to believe that Neil
Armstrong had landed on the moon, complained about the thinning attendance at
our neighborhood mosque. I struggled to control my laughter when the villagers,
anxious to get back to farming, coughed during the prayers to make him finish
faster. He compromised by reading shorter chapters from the holy book and then
turning up at the fields to collect a seasonal donation -- his fees for leading prayers
at the mosque.
In summer, after the mustard was reaped, we planted rice seedlings. On weekdays,
before we left for school, my brother and I took samovars of kahwa, the sweet brew
of saffron, almonds, and cinnamon, to the laborers working in our fields. On
weekends, I would help grandfather and other men carry sacks of seedlings from the
nurseries; my mother, aunts, and other neighboring women bent in rows in the
well-watered fields, planted and sang.
