Dear Jaynat,
The eloquence with which you expressed your feelings is really superb. Wishing your darling child a very bright and prosperous future in our motherland and also for you and your family!
Love,

Relocation & saying bye to all that's been dear to the heart is indeed a tragedy. Well, we have to be prepared for changes at every stage in our lives and welcome them, though this will take a certain amount of your time and your peace of mind as well.

But on the cheerful side, there is the happiness of settling down at homeland, finding new friends and altogether a new world of activities. Finally, time is the greatest healer.

Wish you and your family good luck with the change.

Dear Jaynat,
Rushed in here after finding that your post being nominated for FP. It moved me to tears.I had the experience myself twice as i switched schools in my class 5 and class 10 leaving behind a load of friendsand most of all teachers who have grommed me and my character so much to what i am today.I can completely emphatize your's and ur DD's feelings.My hats off for ur DD for bravely handling the Last Day without a tear.She must have been so much disturbed.

May you have a safe trip to INDIA and my best wishes to your DD.

Dear most Jaynat ma'am,

A wonderful piece of creation from your side that really stroke a chord in me. My heart felt wishes and congratulations on emerging a winner in Finest Posts last month. An emotional piece with a message will always be looked onto and rewarded.

Saying Good bye.. I have encountered it once when I had to shift over to another school during my 8th standard. Right from my 1st standard I studied CBSE syllabus and wanted to continue in the same stream even in my tenth and plus two, for, by-hearting in Matriculation (as I had heard from my other friends) has always left me with a scary future !! Shifting schools would be very difficult after 9th standard. Hence decided to change after 8th (my old school had CBSE only till tenth). I had to bid good bye to my darling and dear most friend Nithya, with whom I shared almost everything right from day 1 both at school and home. I had to leave some of the gem of teachers. The Principal then, was very affectionate and she had told my parents that I would come out in flying colors where ever I am. The love and affection that I shared with both the animate and inanimate in the school will continue to linger in the years to come. I should say, the school molded me into a person as a whole; but my new school (especially the Princi) etched out my qualities on my self and I owe her what I am now. When I was in twelfth, she used to tell me: "U should not work hard, but smart". I followed her words when I entered college and now am really happy for both of my second homes wherein the atmosphere that prevailed, inculcated a lot of good and better qualities in me.

Moving apart may be harder at times (or always), but when its for a purpose, we need to accept the fact and carry on. All my wishes for your lovely daughter and our prayers will shield her where ever she is !! :):)

Congrats once again ma'am !!

Regards with Love
