    Dear Kamla,

    Thank you...Thank you.......Bow

    Every time my post gets nominated, I feel so honored and happy.......
    That my post has touched someone's heart......
    That my post would be graced by your gorgeous visit......
    That my post would be seen by dear Cheeniya Sir....

    This intense, impulsive post....,

    which made me stay awake past midnight.......
    which made my pillow wet, after I retired for the day....
    which stuck a chord with many of my friends.....
    which made racr...my sweet buddy to nominate......
    which brought you here.........

    would linger in my mind for a long time......

    for the empathy from my virtual friends.....
    for the sweet and encouraging words from them....
    for the sweet memory of my phone call with dear daddy the next day....the very mention of umbrella, and he came up so enthusiastically......"I found that at KC Paul's.....it was so nice that I picked it for my Bhargavi......just a few days ago I dusted it....it's still so good........."

    Would watch 'Blue umbrella' soon......

    Thanks a lot for your sweetest words and visit Kamla.........[​IMG]

    Bhargavi dear I am late to come here but one way good that I got to read some fbs, especiall Kamla's which is so true. I also wonder how you write such thought provoking posts, I have to come to you for training and you with your posts bring back happy memories and with some of your posts take us to the place where we do not know whether we get a chance to go. Thanks Bhargavi for this wonderful post which shows your love for your dad and how much respect you have for him and all the elders. Hope I would get anopportunity to meet you one day. Love you dear

    Bhargavi I am very late to read this wonderful post. Very sentimental, bought back a lot of memories I shared walking to school in the rain with my grand-father and his good old black umbrella :)

    Thank you for writing such a wonderful snippet :)

    Dear Vitamin Viji aunty,

    I knew that you were busy and understood that you had seen the post by your lovely, thoughtful "Like"....:bowdown
    The "Like" silently communicated that you had been here.......and I was waiting for your visit here after seeing your 'Bye to Dubai' thread......

    Thanks a lot for the encouraging blessings.........

    Regarding writing.......
    You know me well.......
    I dream a lot and memory is fairly good ( I remember almost everything about a day even after years......).....
    I was well known in school and college for writing long , imaginative answers....and was chided by my teachers and profs.....:bonk:hide::rotfl..
    Your kind words made be blush and smile.........:)
    Shall write about my writing adventures sometime.......
    Thanks a lot aunty, for the thoughtful 'Like' , sweet words and gracious visit.............Bow
