The memories of the day are still vivid in my memory and every time I wish for a different ending …. wishing we had not gone on that picnic, …….
wishing we had not gone on that boating trip, ………..
wishing you had not decided to swim, …………….
wishing someone had stopped you …
wishing someone could have saved you …………..
wishing we could have done something …………
I don’t know how different our lives would have been had your life not snatched away from us and have so many what ifs …………..
You would have joined army….. no doubt would have had a distinguished service record … just wished I could have seen you in uniform and felt so proud that I am related to you!
Always wondered who you would have married …. would you have fallen in love or mom & dad would have chosen someone for you (well looking at our family history later would have been quite unlikely 🙂 ). Where would you have met her? What fun your wedding would have been? What kind of person your wife would have been? How many children you would have had?
Where all you would have been posted and how many times we would have visited you?
Would mom and dad have been different had you been around?
Would we have made different career choices had you been around to guide us?
Wish you were here with us to celebrate our successes and holding us in our failures.
Miss you …. and wishing you peace and happiness wherever you are … hopefully in next life we would meet again. ….. love you bhayia.
