Even though Amit is no longer physically with us, he is always in our hearts. Amit never had the chance to hold his beautiful angel in his arms, but from the moment he knew he was going to be a father, his heart must have swelled with pride and love, he was a father. He loved that child from the very first moment he existed. To be a father, a parent, is to begin your life anew, living not only for yourself, but for your child (or children). The struggles, the difficulties, are all worth it for the chance to love and shape a life and see them look back at you with love and joy in their hearts.
I want to take this moment to celebrate Father's Day for not only my own father, my uncles, my brother, and other father figures and all those other fathers everywhere, but for Deepika's father and Amit's father...and especially for Amit. We may not always remember the words of our fathers, but we do remember how they made us feel and how we feel about them and I am thankful for everyone in my life, those that are still here, and those that have moved on.
Amit is looking down on his darling child and smiling...Jevesh's personal guardian angel.
Take a moment today to love the ones you are with because you do not know what tomorrow has in store.
