November 2014! The last time when she scribbled something in her blog, she never thought its going to be the so-called last post of an era. Yes! Life is always unpredictable and it happened! The girl who doesn't wanted to take a break from her favorite blogosphere never looked back for her space. Whenever she thought of coming back, there were tons of reasons which pushed her back. Once when someone asked to write, she said she doesn't even have a subject to write about. (As if she had millions of subjects before). She too wanted to write, yet it didn't happened. But now she has a beautiful subject to write about. A special day to kick start her most beautiful journey in the blogosphere. So, what's the reason? What's the day??
The most beautiful topic she ever have in the chapter of her life. Her Father! Yes, it's Father's Day and she is restarting the journey with her father.
Achan, the ultimate hero of my life. The one who stood beside me not as a support but as a strength to fly high. He is the one who made us realize what we need in our life is the truthfulness. “Whatever be the reason, be true to yourself, it's the pure self that we need in our life”, it is this quote which I love to follow in my life. He never stopped his girls from achieving their dreams. He stood with them, find out the ways and helped his girls to achieve their goals. The smile in our lips was his awards. He celebrated each of our successful steps. I remember how much he became happy when I got my first byline in a National Daily. I was not working there, was just an intern. But he believed in me. Said me that it's a small step to achieve my dream. He believed in my dream. He wanted to achieve that. Yes! I realize it now. Even now each of my byline credits are precious to my father. He don't mind talking endlessly about it. Others may find it too silly, for him it's his little daughter! The one who wanted his hands to sleep.
Being a daughter, my first successful step was getting a job. And that too before completing my Post Graduation (yea, of course that's a big deal). The dream of my parents. The gift I could give them. The proud feeling in his eyes when he think of his little girls. When people ask him about the paths his girls took (one being a journo and other a social worker). He is proud to say they live their dream. There was a time when life seemed so much dramatic. When you don't know what to do next. When you know what you need but don't know how to achieve it. But his words, his steps, and the belief in his girl created the difference.
The unstoppable support and love from that heart. It's for that I am blessed for. For many Father's day may not be a special day. But today when I look back I am seeing the Gem of my life. It's because of him I calmly write this note. It's because of him I smile. And it's for him I thank God Almighty! Happy Father's day Acha.
