Happy Birthday Papa :)

3^rd 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.
