A tribute on Father’s day
Posted by Ashish on June 15th, 2008
I didn’t believe too much in the “special days” including Father’s day that we all are celebrating today, until I met my wife Paavani. I never thought that I had to wait for a day to express my gratitude to my father, and have probably never expressed it very explicitly to my dad (he always understood, I guess). But today, I wanted to express my love and respect for my dad - the other one (in-law), and wish to make his profile known to few more people than the family members.
Not only is Mr. Bajrang Bishnoi my father-in-law, he was also a noted poet, painter and a very creative person before deciding to spend his life establishing a Handmade paper factory. He has invented a lot of things in handmade paper creation and I got a chance to look at his factory a couple of weeks back - but I think that his other creative skills could have fetched him far more adulance and wealth. After all, not many people get a chance to be profiled in “Reference Asia” amongst “Who’s who of Asia” when he was still in his late 20s. Click on the photo below to see the larger image.
Long live Dad - it’s a privilege knowing you.
