This is a message for you, Papa, I hope somewhere up there in heaven you can read this.

Papa - it has been quite a year since that tragic day that you were taken away so suddenly and you moved on to a peaceful place. You were always the cornerstone for us and I miss you not being here. I wish I could have learnt a lot of things from you.  Your kind, gentle soul and your vast wealth of knowledge continues to be with me and helps me get through life each and every day. Thank you for ALWAYS making me feel special and ALWAYS taking time for me no matter what. I remember how you used to tell me "everything will be ok" when I felt low. I remember how your arms held me and gave me strength whenever I need it right from the time I took my first steps. You were always there to listen, love, and defend me in everything. In my triumphs you were always proud. I’m very grateful and proud to call you my Papa.

I never thought I would say good bye, I somehow thought you would live forever. If only I could turn back the time I would have never let you go. In retrospect, I say that I will never say goodbye to you Papa, because I know this is not the end for us of seeing each other. You have gone to a place where there’s neither pain nor suffering. But I know you are watching me always, wishing me well and I take great strength and inspiration from the fact that you will always be there for me no matter what. You will be there for me, as you have always been. Oh how I wished it was in person. 

Thank you Papa…. For always understanding, listening, caring, and loving me for all of your life; yesterday, today and tomorrow.
I make this promise today despite the irreparable dent you have left in our lives, an emptiness which can never be filled, I will be the girl you aspired me to be, in every possible way. I know, as I write this, you are with me, around me, wishing me well always. I love you papa to bits, and would do anything to have you back here with us all right now. Your memories still surrounds me and all I can do is cry.  Though I portray myself to others as a strong girl and act tough, I don’t think I can ever get over the fact that you are gone.

Not only do I miss you today, but I miss you every single day since you left. I love you Papa - You're The Best!!!!

Rest in peace Papa. I can't stop missing you .....more than I can say.

This is for all the lovely daughters.......

 
 
oas ki bundo si hoti hai "betiyan"
sparsh agar khurdara ho to rothi hai "betiyan"
roshan karega beta bas ek hi kul ko....
do do kulo ki laaj hain "betiyan"
koi nahi ek dusre se kam, heera hai
agar beta to sacha moti hoti hai "betiyan"...
kanton ki raah pe ye khud chalti rahegi
auron ke liye phool bichati hai "betiyaan"
vidhi ka vidhan hai
yahi dunia ki rasam
                                            mutthi bahr neer hoti hai "betiyaan"

Happy Birthday Sidzi !!!!

Today’s your birthday but the gift is all mine because your existence is what really makes me happy and gives meaning to my life. All I wish for is that you share this happiness. All I want is to give you peace, tranquility and love “for the rest of my life…”
  I want you to always (and only!) have the best that I can give you and the best I have to offer right now is my intense love.

Always count on me, not only today, but every day, month, year… on every single birthday from now on. Always count on me because I love you and I want that love to withstand anything. I thank God every day for sending a love into my life that will never lose the fullness we feel at this moment. I thank him every day for giving me to you so that I will always be there for you when you need to see the light you have been looking for. Today I wish for you, peace, special thoughts of happy times, remembrance of our loving times.

As I said in the beginning of this letter, it’s your birthday but the gift is mine, for I feel like the happiest person in the world, a world that looks even nicer today as we celebrate another year of your existence. 

All of my love doesn't seem enough, but that's all I have to offer you.Happy Birthday :)

Things have never been the same since August 2008...I met him two years ago.. He called that night, and asked me out on a date.  One date became two, then three, then we began to realize something serious was happening.  He was different than anyone I had ever met. He was both magical and familiar, conservative and freethinking. I knew he was a good thing for my life. He turned my life totally making it more beautiful. From the time we have known each other, our relation has just grown. We have seen many ups and downs in life, but have stood firmly by each other. We got married in April, 2009. Our relationship and marriage has had the expected ups and downs (as any relationship should), but it is a dance—we may grow apart for awhile, fight, be immature and selfish, but we always find ourselves back together, embracing, and moving as one. I have come to understand the meaning of love as it was meant to be. This is just the beginning, I know we have a long road ahead of us.  I love my husband so much and I am so proud of him.I think God reserves the best for everyone and I the best gift he showered upon me was bringing Siddharth into my life.

Happy Friendship's Day




Hey Friends,

This is a lovely poem written by a a very dear friend of mine, it surely has a deep meaning to it. Enjoy reading and make more friends ...

When silence talks, you know a friend is listening.

When dreams come true, you know a friend is celebrating.

When tears fall, you know a friend’s shoulder is getting wet.

When colours fill your palette, you know a friend is painting.

When success knocks the door, you know a friend is not far behind.

When raindrops fall, you know a friend is waiting with an umbrella.

When music soothes the soul, you know a friend is singing.

When footsteps create a rhythm, you know a friend is walking along.

When a goal is made, you know a friend is playing on your team.

When one dessert is shared, you know a friend is digging in.

When the echo says ‘WE’, you know a friend has arrived.

Wishing all of you a very Happy Friendship Day!!

15 Dec 2009 - It was the last time I spoke with my papa. Our last conversation keeps replaying in my mind. All I can think is that I want my dad back. And ask over and over why did this happen. My dad is close to me even now as he pats me on my shoulder when I feel low. I truly believe that he is still with us.

God bless the ones who left us and more importantly God bless the ones left behind.

Happy Father's day

You were there when I didn't understand, You were there when I was wrong, You were there when I cried, You were there when I lied. For some reason my dad was always there, when I needed him the most. His love was never ending. And now that he's gone there is an emptiness in my world, but not in my heart.
Happy Father's Day Papa :) Miss you a lot...

Happy Birthday Papa :)


3rd June... :) Today is my Papa's birthday!!! Although he will not see what I post here, but I would write anyway....

Papa, we wish A Very Happy Birthday to You!!! (Hug Hug).

You would’ve been 57 years old today. So many things on my mind, but the one that keeps surprising me – you’re an inspiration. You’ve taught me, by example, what to do – and what not to do.

It’s the first birthday we’ll celebrate without you. As the day goes by, the realization that you as a person is no longer with us really sets in but we also know that you are there in thoughts. I know this day is going to be very rough for all of us, especially my mom. She’s experiencing a whole different level of sorrow. In a world full of stresses and strains you always used to find time for us.

I think if you were here today, I would have called you to wish you a happy birthday. I miss you very much and sometimes I dream about you still being with us. If there is something that I learned from the way we lost you, it is that life doesn’t always turn out the way you think it will. But the other thing that I learned after you went away is what a truly honest and respectable man you were in the way you lived your everyday life. You never took any time to enjoy yourself because you gave everything you had to us.

I am sure Mukul must have planned something for you, and i hope you have a good birthday with him.

Papa, I might not be the perfect daughter in so many ways but I love you, I miss you and of course each day I keep that promise of looking after the lady who stole your heart almost 29 years ago. You are the reason I want to believe in the possibility of meeting you again someday.

I really hope you are in a better place & very happy.

Papa, I can't believe you are gone. It's been around four months and i still wake up and start crying. I dont know how to talk to mom she is so sad and depressed, we try to keep her mind off things. I want to say the perfect things to her to make her feel somewhat better but I think it wont help so I dont say anything at all. I hope you like heaven dad. Hows' Mukul? say 'Hi' to him. I miss him also. I love you papa. I spoke to you that evening about my job interview and you sounded so happy. I just wish I would've come over that fateful night and saw you, talked and stuff. I never would've thought you would die that night. Nobody did, except god.


Siddharth tells me I should try not to think about it so much and he does his best to help me tackle things, but it seems to me that now after almost four months, it's gotten even harder to deal with. I have always been my "papa's little doll" - always...even after I was grown and married.

Papa i know your watching after me, I can feel the warmth of you being around and I love it. It makes me feel better about decisions that I make because you are near me . . . PAPA I MISS YOU SO MUCH! You will be in my heart, my prayers, my thoughts, my everything. Save a seat for me up there papa!

Dear God,

My name is Sherry, and I live here on Earth,
and as far as I’ve been told, whatever I want, I should ask you first.
I really don’t know much about you, only what I’ve heard grown up’s say, they say you are something really magical, and whenever I’m sad, you’ll make it go away.

“Well”, if you can really hear me,
there’s something I want to discuss.
I’ve been feeling a strange pain inside,
almost every single day, it all started few weeks ago, when my Papa went away.
They said that you took him far away, to a very special place,
they said I shouldn't cry or worry, cause someday, I’ll see my Papa's face,
I don’t care what they say, they don’t know what’s in my heart,
all I know is that my Papa is gone, and it’s tearing me apart.


“Okay”, let me take a deep breath, and tell you what I want to say,
just be a little patient with me, I’m just learning how to pray,
I want to make a deal with you, and I hope that I'm not misunderstood,
I want you to give my Papa back to me,
I miss him so very much, I just don’t know what to do,
I want to hug him,

What about when I go back home.. who will come to receive me at the airport?
Who will call me and discuss Mom's health?
If you can really hear me, can you help me?
cause I don’t understand, how can my Papa speaks to me now and in few hours his life is in your hands?
Who told you that you can have him?

Did you ever think of Mummy, and how lonely, she would be?
Did you ever think of me?
You even took away Mukul...
Don't you think you are unfair?

I don’t mean to yell at you,
or disrespect you, in any kind of way,
I’m just feeling very hurt and angry,
cause my Papa has gone away!
You say my Daddy is in a beautiful place, where only good people meet,

You say that you’ll watch over him, as he watches over me.
You say you’ll never leave him alone, and by his side, you’ll always be?
It’s not clear to me, the reason why he’s gone.

There’s just one wish I want to make,
and I pray you grant it just for me, I know that it’s impossible to give me my Papa back, right now,
but could you make it summertime again,

when my Papa was still around... I will make sure he doesn't leave me then.

regards, Sherry
