Happy Father's Day

Hi Babba,

On father's day, I want to wish myself happy son's day, because thats what it really has been to have you as my dad. I've had the most wonderfully happy life because of you.

I wont say 'ur the best dad in the world' because I know only one dad, and all I know is 'thank god for that'.

I love you Babba, very very much, always..

But more importantly, I have learnt from you the way to live my life, not because you taught it to me, but because thats how you lived your life.

I have learnt that nice guys don't finish last. I have learnt that its more important to have a large heart than a large pocket. I have learnt that work can be enjoyed if you're doing what you like. I have learnt that you need to love your kids beyond reason, and not expect anything in return. I have learnt that being decent is a virtue not a weakness. I have learnt the joy of striving towards perfection. I have learnt the significance of being a self made man, of 'earning' the right to live in this world, not inheriting it.

I have learnt that eating from your mouth is one thing, but eating from your heart is what makes life worth living. I have learnt that money is to be spent if it is to be of any use to us. I have learnt to be thankful for all that I have in my life and not be greedy. I have learnt to be happy in whatever circumstances life has to offer. I have learnt to believe in karma.

Babba, from u I have learnt to be a good human being.

And all I can say is thank you, for being who you are, because thats the reason I am who I am.

Love always,
Your Sunny

Step With Me Sweetheart

All Work and No Play... That's the way it is, Ain't It
There's a Rhythm deep inside of you... You must get Re-Acquainted

When was the last time you danced... When was the last time you danced...

So come rock with me Baby
Dance with me Darling
Step with me Sweetheart
The world is watching

Under an endless sky, wish I could fly away forever... and ever
And the poetry is so pure, when we are on the floor together (it's been a long time)

When was the last time you danced... When was the last time you danced...

So come rock with me Baby
Dance with me Darling
Step with me Sweetheart
The world is watching

Don't deny me any further
Let me have my way
Oh....come closer
Let's dance the night away
