Appa . . . .
The first influence in a life that was so short.... there are lots of people who say life is short and sweet, so live it to the fullest; as you do not know what will happen in the next second.
This is really true. Sometimes we want our parents to be like this .... like that and WE MISS OUT ON WHAT THEY REALLY ARE. I missed out a bit, regained a lot and at the ripest moment of our relationship, he left us all.
I used to fear nothing in my life.... i realised that this is because of the strength that my father was known for... and as it happened i could see that the entire strength in our lives seeped away.
The only way for me to gain more strength is to continue blogging... and over the next few weeks i am going to write all i can about him, the great gift to this child by God... the great man i call APPA...
