It is almost a year. In the last one year, time has flown, crawled, and downright stopped! I can count on one hand the number of times I have been away from her, since she was born. The longest was for five days, that one time when I went on a trek. And here I am, almost a year since losing her, wondering how I have managed to get to this point in space and time. How have I managed to exist without seeing, hearing, or holding her all these months?
You write so beautifully Binu. Beautiful. Powerful. Like Mom like Baby girl. Like Sakshi like Binu. Like Binu like Sakshi.”Cancer be damned”. She was beautiful in life and she lives brighter in death. I hope you put more down soon. The joy the grief the sounds of her laughter the stillness of her peace. Put your pen to paper Binu. Make it “totally worth it!” as every moment with an angel was.
Love hearing her through you. Help me “meet Sakshi!” - I feel like I missed so much of her growing up. So much wit and brilliance.
How wonderfully you have pinned down Binu. As I read I could really feel what a strong girl she was. I would like to know her more . So pls share as much as you can.
Hey Binu…your writing makes me feel like I am walking through Saku’s life..pls write more..
how has time flown and stood still at the same time ? Can’t forget the day she called us to the hospital to share an “important update” and how she made it all a joke while consoling us..
Remembering our brave fiery warrior princess.. wishing her peace, joy and drama (as always) while she giggles at us from above..
Moved to the core….. especially reading about the journey thru the last one year that you both have made….. loads of love and strength to you dearest Binu🤗🤗
Binu, this piece made me love, laugh, and cry. So moving. Thank you for sharing a slice of her life, even though it was painful for you. She was giving in her spirit and so are you...
Waiting to receive much more if it will help you heal, try and find your feet to live a bit everyday in the way she would want you to. Take care, you and Suresh, and remember Sakshi is around in her own joyful way. Hugs!
Binu! Your words are beautifully woven that's it hard for even someone who was not such a close WITNESS, feels the emotions you do. More importantly how Sakshi did!
I read somewhere that the purpose of marriage was to bear witness to the life of a soulmate..... I think parents certainly do it for thier children.......
Stay strong and keep alive the memories you had the pleasure to participate and witness!
God bless!
PS. Anjali's store will be very happy to keep 'Sakshi's Joy' it you think you will need a place to sell it out of! It will be out honour!
This is so beautiful chechi...you have described Sakshi amazingly. And now I wish I had known her, met her or spoken to her. I have only heard about her from Usha Valliama. But your notes are bringing me close to her. Do write more chechi as I really love to keep knowing about her more from you !! ♥️
Ah my friend . Hard to read , but feeling her joy for prom and her zest for life . I think of the 2 of you as my own moves through her life with graduation and her 18th birthday , not with sympathy but empathy and taking life one day at a time with no expectations .
