Cheeku,
Yesterday in the light of the diyas, your smiling face glowed with the radiance of a thousand suns. I couldn’t determine whether it was the diyas that lit up the room with their light or was your radiance making everything and everyone glow in an ethereal light.
You were present, and how! Diwali is your festival. You are the centre of the universe of light.
In the afternoon, some guests came and asked Tubby how tall he was and he said that it ran in the family. That his dad, his elder brother and he were of around the same height. His elder brother was around somewhere. He is always in the present. He is there to celebrate every joyous occasion, he is there with Tubby in whatever he does.
Cheeku, you may choose to travel through the skies and visit different galaxies. But you are here too, you cannot escape this home. It is yours and you reside here . Don’t you ever forget that!
Dad
