Mitali... your write up brought myriads of memories floating in front of my eyes.. good times.. I don't remember bad or anything that went wrong when we were children.... but when your dad went away.... I remember looking for my father that day and just feeling blessed.. I could not understand the pain you went through until I lost mine.... to this day I miss my daddy every single day and most when I am globe trotting alone... checking into hotels and after I switch off the lights in any hotel room I still tell Daddy... I know you are there so that I can sleep peacefully...thats the kind of comfort I get to this day... even when he is no more....no where...but I do search for him ... in a beautiful park.. on the road...in the mountains ... the sky .. everywhere.... and I can feel him.. its just that I cannot touch and hold his hands... but everytime I look at my hands.... i can see him....
