My inspiration and strength…My Mother
Mother, the most ‘taken for granted’ person in the world. Any time you need anything, you have a problem, she is the ‘go to’ person. Someone who is not at all demanding, it is as if she is invisible, but whenever you need her, she is always there. Until one day, when she is not. It is one year to this date that my mother passed away, hopefully to a better place. My mother was one of the strongest and most resilient persons that I have ever known, and yet she was also the gentlest and most peace-loving person. A multi-faceted personality, she was extremely talented, intelligent and a problem solver. She was like a chameleon, she would adapt and blend into whatever the surroundings. She was equally happy working shoulder to shoulder with the ladies in her shop as she was working alongside the carpenters in her furniture workshop. She created a beautiful and special world around her, wherever she was, be it Mumbai, Pune, Dubai or Canada. She was always welcome and loved wherever she went.
