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

Sherry we can't fight with God. In his life he needs love, he wants those people who loves him more & cares him more (that's why he called your Papa)

but see around he left you lots of love in your life like Siddharth... (touch wood)

don't cry, your Papa wants to spend time with God let him go...

close your eyes, see your Papa's, tell him that don't worry everything will be fine!!!

WE ALWAYS WITH YOU SHEERY

Sherry,,

i believe in god .. and he never does injustice to any one.. God loves you lot and he will send your papa back once again .. Not in same face that you have seen him.. but you will feel.. once you meet him again.. with same love and feeling..

Your father has not gone .. he is still there with you..

I could feel your pain while reading.. trust me..

i have only one wish that i want to see you smiling again like before..

and i will pray god that he listen to your prayer.. and give you all the happiness in the world..

I cannt see my elder sis like this..

Even I agree with sherry....This is really unfair...its sad and very painful...I remember that time when Mukul left and knw in same way uncle left....Dear we are always with u though we cant take there place.

Sherry as u said he has become your guiding star ..he ll always be around dear !
I very well know how it feels...I ve lost many precious people , the most precious was my nanu .
At that time it feels life has come to a halt but strangely life never stops for anyone...we all ve to keep moving na...trust me Sherry with time you wont feel he is gone ...you will feel him around whenever you want .
Though that vacuum will remain but somehow as time goes by you will become a little more involved with other things to deal in life and though you will miss him still the same but will feel him around you .

He has not gone anywhere .... he will always watch over you and masiji ...but he knows Sid is there to take care of both of you .

Loads of hug ..
tk cr !

Everytime i read this, i want to write something, but no words seem right.. no sentence i can think of that will lessen the pain in some way.
All i will say is he was an adorable person and he has made you into such a fine girl that you are. We will continue to see him, to meet him, through u, through ur deeds!!
Take care n love...
