Chutney Rolls are flavored with indian spices. Serves as great accompaniment to soups.
Yesterday I had a dream. A small girl being cradled by a handsome man. With a flash the scenario changed and now the girl was sitting in a bicycle with the same man full of smiles and they were peddling to some beautiful place. And then I was suddenly awake realizing, that these flashes were of my past with my father. Two months back , I lost my father.
He was unwell since seven months but the pain of his passing was a shock.I was one holding his hand on his last breath. And whenever I closed my eyes, his last moments used to flash like a movie reel.But yesterday my dream was a realization of my happy times spent with him. And this is how I want to remember him.
It was time to make peace and move a step further and revisiting the happy times spent with him. In my heart I know his soul is at complete peace. A man of few words , but very good deeds who always promoted girls education. Always bored in our minds that life is unpredictive. You should be prepared for it and able to support yourself in hard times
When I published this post , I had kept my canvas free of words. Because writing about him was too emotional for me. But I had to let myself out. As he would want me to move forward. I love you pappaji. Thanks for being a good father.Feel myself blessed to be his daughter..
