ADIEU!!!!!!!

"BYE "...such a small word to say but the emotions that come along with that word are sometimes too heavy to handle ....... we bid ADIEU day before yesterday to a "teacher, a friend, a confidante, a genius, a guide"...but most of all A FATHER ... a father of 200 students he considered his own .... someone who made a pearl out of the students who were just grains of sands..... he was that LARGE OYSTER... who sheltered us from the rough SEA'S and just held strong .. we said good bye to our "PILLAR OF STRENGTH".... with a very heavy heart ............ let me lead u through a series of events that took place ..... as soon as we got the NEWS that "he"was leaving .... we had a meeting as to how we could stop him from going ...... we tried every thing in the book ....... nothing happened ... it was decided ...... the lion would be taken away from his cubs .. whom he nurtured and made strong so that they would survive no matter what the circumstance .......... we wrote a petition .. we signed it .. we decided to meet the BOSS.... but nope all failed ........ at the end we had no choice but .... give up on our efforts ... and console ourselves and accept that the day of his departure was nearing ....... we knew we had to make him smile one last time ..... and we did ....... "deewan family dhaba"seemed like HEAVEN dat day ..... and it was a fantastic way to have said good bye ..... he told us a few things too "he said ... u are ur best judge .. if u think ur right .. and if u r telling the truth .. then stand by it .. because truth does triumph ........ he said u should be good at what u do then no one can point a finger at u ....... u will be judged no matter what ... and u should learn how to deal with it .. if u learn dat then u have become MATURE ...... its not what the person has said that u have to understand... it is how to decipher the UNSAID .. dat matters .. learn dat and u r the master ........ and last .... i know everyone of u will enter the media field and will be successful because u have gone through a struggle too early in ur life "... those words still ring in our ears ... they ring with a vengance to prove ourselves only to him and do him proud.............. the last time i saw father was day before yesterday ....5 minutes before the train blew its horn ..... telling us ... "its time u said bye .. until u see him next ...".. and dats what we did .... we didnt know how to but we did ..... holding back tears and the want to just hold his hand and drag him back to the studio ..... we walked along with the train as it began to gain speed ... and waved frantically .....and that was the last time i saw him smile ..... and saw that twinkle in his eye ..... the same smile that used to tell me i was a very talkative girl .. and i did well in my paper ...........that was the last time i saw the man ... who knew more about the media then most media people did who was calm and knew his time would come..... we stood with no words to say ... and we stood there till the train chugged off on its way...... leaving behind only memories of him on our tracks of life .......................aurevoir

the post is ignitin the fire much brighter than it is already burnin ...
it just burns inside to kno tat he left ... to kno tat he wont be there ...

Anyways talkin bout this, reminds me of the song by coldplay ... its as if our hearts are singin the lines -
"Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I will cross

Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I
deserve
No better and no worse

I just got lost
Every river that I've tried to
cross
And every door I ever tried was
locked
And I'm just waiting till the
shine wears off..."

and to those who were involved in sendin our leader away, here are a few words from the same song -
"You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one
And you'll be lost "

Sorry i've commented too much... i dunno if they'd ever read those lines but they will realise soon wat they've done...

well .. nice post...
