Hi daddy,
Hope you are doing good and are happy.We are going on with our life but its is no more the way it used to be.Things have changed daddy and changed a lot after you left.I have always wanted to tell you something and im telling this to you now in this letter
Certain things and people are always taken for granted,Our parents are one of the few people we always take for granted.
They would always be with us , be there to guide us, see us through the up's and down's of life and yes i did take my parents for granted too.But not any more cause life thought me otherways but the price for learning my lesson was too high.
I loved you dad ,still love you and always will but im not sure if i actually told you how much i loved you when you were around.
The importance of a person is understood in their absence and dad u have been so important to me in my life and i realise it now when its all too late.Wish you were around to see your daughter live an independent life .You would have been really happy cause you taught me how to live .You gave me courage.You built my confidence and you taught me to love in spite of all the odds.
I miss u daddy , i guess iam late and should have told you earlier- I LOVE U daddy and i love you so much, though my actions or words could not have potrayed that to you .But deep inside my heart you are my hero.
I would just love to pick up the phone ,call you from bombay just to let you know how im doing. But i know on the other end the phone would just be ringing followed by a silence that would be so deaffening.You have left a void in my life , a void that no one can ever fill a void for me to look into and realise what life has taught me.
What was the hurry dad? why did you leave without even telling us a single word.
Every single milestone i cross -how i wish u were around to cheer me and take me up further. What happened to the promises of u and me visting the US together. There are so many things dad so many promises to keep up,so many things for me to tell you and so many things for u to see.What was the hurry dad??
But still you did your job so well... even leaving in such a hurry u taught me a lesson dad.
Dont take anyone for granted and make sure you tell the person how u feel about them cause tommorw might be too late.
I was late once and have been punished but now i will make sure i never do the same thing again. Love you daddy and miss you a lot .Missing you every single minute.
Love
Your daughter
P.S :Hope you will be able to read this letter. Everyone loves you a lot and misses you at home

You are right that one should just express our love and affection to our loved ones as and when we get time.
We all learn life the hard way Vani!!
