I miss u thatha


I miss u thatha....
Right from the instant i was born, u ve known me, seen me growing up..I remember those times when i used to play with ur shaven head...wen u used to carry us for evening walks..those times wen u used to return from work wearing a white shirt white veshti carrying a black bag under ur arms. We used to await ur arrival outside the flat and u used to buy my favorite halwa...those times wen u used to cum up 3 floors to rams flat to celebrate anna's and ur birthday on 31st august...those times wen u used to teach me to brush and the way u used to clean up the bathrooms wenever i cum for a stay...those times wen all of us used to fite for sleeping next to u on the bed and wen we used to drink water only from ur jug...numerous aavani avittam and diwali celebrations..those times wen u wud tel me stories of ur meet with gandhiji...

And suddenly u became immobile...got confined to a room...brought in so much of a gap between us...we spent less time with each other...u started asking me if i am free so that u can cure ur boredom by narrating ur past adventures...u got frustrated of ur sickness and ur immobility and now u lie before me...physically lifeless....with the same charming look that brought smiles on our face all those years...

U taught me one great thing...Life s really short...There's really no use crying for ur luved ones after their life if u cant be with them through their life... I really repent for all those hurting words tat i may have uttered which u mite have carried with u till the end...the past 6 yrs wen i did not spend enough time for u.. I swear i wouldn do this to another person...never hurt anyone knowingly...i ll learn to spend time for my luved ones... i ll do all that i can to make others happy...

If anyone's reading this...pls take it to ur heart...whether u like them or not...spend time for ur ppl...ur grandpa grandma mom dad aunt uncle cousins friends....cos u surely know that they ve been a part of ur evergreen memories...the least u can do is to be a part of their's...

Luv u thatha...u ll live forever in our memories.....

By,
All of ur ppl...

.........

Well I just couldnt control myself from attempting to blog for a third time(hopefully this continues gud) after this incident(may not seem really impacting to all:) )...

I was on my way back home from Office, struggling and getting into the crowded and spit-painted walled Guindy subway when I noticed this visually impaired person in front of me. People were dashing against him every now and apologizing after looking at the stick in his hands( wonder y sorry shudn be said to others whom they dash against!)..He was walking down the stairs, his stick stumbling against stranded slippers and other decorative pieces and I slowed down my pace and was walking by his side just to warn him of any sudden obstacles he may not recognize..I was just thinking if he could ever imagine what sort of a dress color combination he was wearing and we reached the middle of the subway..

All of a sudden the power went off..I could hear the whole subway screaming and this person dint show any emotion and continued his walk...The thought that light being there and not dint make a difference to him drove me to tears but in a flash brought about an awe...How awesome Nature and her methodologies are! What seemed normal to me is normal to him and what was tough to me was again normal to him!!!!

Wowwwww!
