Dear,
Sharing my thoughts with you and listening to yours has always been a pleasure to me. All this would have continued in full swing if I had also walked your way into Pondicherry University. Am I to find fault with myself is something I cannot understand – ultimately God decides – I believe.
A day should start and end like the 10th of October 1998 – A perfect day my girl, my love….Saturdays’ (10th Oct) sunrise, the morning sunny ride filled with anxiety waiting to see you, when both our eyes met, every second that passed, morning milk with a chat, the last lunch we shared, evening gossip with a cup of tea, a quick walk on the terrace followed by walking down the stairs (having the last look at the room of being together) to the streets only to part has so much meaning to me. Though both of us knew we would have to part, we hardly realized that parting from each other would be a blow on our faces.
I am highly grateful to God for having allowed us to stay together in Alliance as colleagues and enjoy little happenings as smart, playful kids coupled with intellectual discussions on life and many more interesting subjects which people like us would only understand. Ten long months with you; separation now, like a glory departed you leave for good, made me realize many bitter truth we will have to face in life. I am happy it was not some other odd job or marriage that separated us, rather it is a lifetime achievement – PHD. You need this break.
Change in life is inevitable – good and bad would eat us, we will have to hope for the best. I think change from spectacle to lens; shift from Alliance to University will give you tremendous confidence and security in life. I pray your father understand and accept you and your intentions, your better half understand and love ‘real Priya’ you have revealed or exposed, and above all the almighty in whose drama we are characters playing our parts to shower abundant love in different forms on you, the love you really desire in this birth.
What a drastic change in kayana she is not lamenting to you, rather she is learning to understand life and accept it as destined. Both of us should be courageous, confident and have belief in God. For all that we have suffered and enjoyed, we would receive the best.
With love,
S. KanchanaHave you read this letter? Guess who would have written this? A few paras might appear like my style of writing. To be honest, this was written by my first daughter to her friend (name changed) when the latter was on the verge of joining Ph.D. Programme in Pondicherry University by resigning the job. I accidentally stumbled upon this letter and without even consulting her I decided to put in my blog. I was just moved by the content of the letter as also her comment over the language being a student of English literature. Like a student outsmarting his teacher, my daughter has also excelled me in narrating her experience, with all fervor and girlish enthusiasm.
