Its been awhile since I wrote anything here but the passing away of my Uncle forces me to etch a few words on behalf of his soul.
During my childhood days there was a timeframe that we had no place to go basically homless and it was my Uncle who took us in and looked after us upuntil higher secondary school. And his selfless action is maybe one of the reasons I have reached where I am today.
Till this day I am amazed by how he managed his responsibilities. During his life he faced strong critiscism from many but tht was only because a timid soul. Strong, confident but still very timid I would feel.
I have been fortunate to recieve firsthand alot of advice from him. Like he would sometimes say "Now that you are married you have to become a balance between your wife and family."
Or sometimes he would say when needed to make a tough decision. " There will be lot of opinions from all sides but do only what you is the right thing to do.".
One thing that saddens me is that I always wanted to do something big for my Uncle to repay him for how he has helped us. But it has just become the case that he was called back early before I could do anything. It had just been the case that he was always present for major decisions in my Life , guiding to what was right. He would always show the other cheek never fight back against anyone which i felt was not the way to go, you need to fight back when you are being pushed around no matter what the consequence. But sometimes it felt he saw the bigger picture thats why he never fought back.
If anything to take away from this writeup is be responsible and always do the right thing.
