Charlie brown says...
Charlie Brown once said that the secret of life was to own a convertible and a lake. "If the sun is shining, you can drive around in your convertible and be happy . . . If it starts to rain it won't spoil your day because you can just say, 'Oh, well, the rain will fill up my lake!"

Daddy's Girl!
"Little woman gonna break your heart
Gonna miss her when you're both apart
She's a lady, but she'll always be Daddy's Girl "
Every little girl has her father around her little finger! At least I did! My father was my hero, and like every little girl, every time my mum said "No!" to anything, I stuck out my lip, and went to Pa. And, every time, his heart melted quicker than ice-cream in the Sun! He was proud of me, like I was of him. I loved it when he came home in his Army uniform, and gave me one big bristly kiss on my cheek. I remember once when I was six, I wore his shirt, and it reached my ankles! Growing up, we were the typical Indian family,- one elder son, younger daughter and two doting and very much in love parents. I wrote him letters when he went to the Exercise Area, with great big vines of flowers drawn with sketch pens in the margins. And he always wrote back, drawing an oval mustachioed face with a huge grin saying "Love, Pa".
Being little, allows us a few misleading facts about life. You cannot imagine days where you will not climb into the arms of a big loving man, on summer afternoons, and hear him say "Bimchooli". You cannot begin to comprehend that he will not get better. Its horrible being so little and being so lost.
"...And nothing quite so least as truth-
-I say though hate were why men breathe-
-because my Father lived his soul
Love is the whole and more than all "
...E E Cummings.
And now, God has been kind to give us a second chance, a chance to proudly claim to be a daddy's girl. A father to look upto and look towards for advice. Most importantly, a father to help a mother in the daunting task of bringing up children to be good persons. Its not always perfect, but its beautiful in its own disjoint way. Very few people get second chances, we are lucky to be one of those.
