The You, from family's perspective!
I had this weird dream yesterday. You woke up from your sleep all healed with a big bright smile. It was momentary but the joy I felt, I could never express. Funny how I forced myself to sleep all day today. I wish I could tap into my mind and make you re-appear and talk to me. Let me summarize what each of the family members said about you:
1. That chinnanna was more like a friend. Much younger than their fathers and a friend like figure.
2. You would bring lots of food for everyone. Tons of varieties
3. The DVDs and Video Games to keep children occupied and happy
4. The curd and milk, loads of it for kids
5. Ferocious yet gentle. Short fused yet loving
6. Jealous for religion and gospel
7. Took care of parents and sisters till their breathe when other sons were away
8. A love story of you and mom, the big gang of friends and you were the hero
9. The fun loving chinnana
10. Honest employee who hated bribes even when there was shortage of food at home
11. A lover who found the right partner
12. Someone who fought all the battles bravely
13. Someone who never cared about the wealth or properties
14. Someone who loved Friends and Family
15. Straight forward and never backing off on his word
16. Someone who said Christianity doesnt have to be materialistic. Rather, its something you express and people fall in love with.
17. A father who gave me enough freedom to call him anything I wanted. A good friend.
18. One doesnt have to show how religious a person is or talk about the helping he did.
19. To be humble no matter where you are.
20. To do the job with all your heart poured into it. No matter how small or big it is.
I hope you were happy to see your dear friends and neighbors at the funeral. They remember you in their prayers during this holy month. You finally made me talk in front of crowd. After all, its about you. I could go on forever. I told my friends how much you loved them. I will write to you often na. May be you will find a way to talk back. May be God will feel pity and let you talk. I Love You!
