My Father-In-Law is now 87 years old. I first met him after he had retired from government service but I heard from people around that he had a very honorable job. He is very smart. He could not pursue his passion for music for some reason, so he encouraged his kids to learn vocal and instrumental. His English Vocabulary is very good. My husband always gives credit to him for his command on English language and the support he got for his career in music. If somebody needs help in writing an essay or updating a resume, he is always there to guide. He can whistle a tune of any song.
He shared a memory about his nephew Harish who at that time was only 2 years old and was known to be a high-energy, rambunctious kid. One day when My father-in-law came home from work, a relative broke the shocking news that Harish fell off the balcony of their 2nd floor apartment in Andheri, a suburb of Mumbai while sitting on the edge. Everyone was devastated to hear this and rushed to his sister's house with their hearts in their mouths. They were expecting the unthinkable, but what they witnessed was a miracle – Harish was hale and hearty, playing with his toys. He was extremely fortunate to have fallen right between a concrete water tank and a rock but landed in the soil made especially soft by the recent rain showers, so all he suffered was a minor bruise. One can imagine the relief in everyone's heart and the experience of a divine power looking after the family. My father-in-law can never forget this incident. He always puts his Family first, always worries about the members who are away in different countries. He is always proud of the achievements of his family members. We all love you Baba-My Father-in-law.
