Dear Shekhar,
It's your birthday. Your wish will be granted! You bequeath the essence of who you are, and your daughter will carry a part of you, within her always.
Watch for the blossoming.
Love,
~~ Kate

Beautiful. :) You should write that down on paper, if you haven't already, for her. When she's older (if i remember correctly, she's pretty young, yeah?) and can understand it, it will be a very, very special momento of who her father is.

Those gifts are, is, the field of infinite possibilities,
and the awareness of it,

that is a precious gift,

and the decisions made,
do they matter?
the outcomes?

or the intent?

or 'just' experiences,

a heritage, or the meaning attached to them,
passing on,

that is wealth,
the,
Love and the Passion,
Ps. Na Zdrowie, Shekhar, enjoy!

ameya, my daughter is 5 years old. Shekhar

thank you

Wonderful tribute to your daughter Shekhar; she's a Blessed gift. I hope she is old enough to understand, how much you love her; and miss her, when she is not near; and how she plays always, in Daddy's heart...so sweet!

Birthday Blessings Shekhar; may the god's smile upon you all-ways; and I am anxiously waiting for The Golden Age to be ready; even though you are just starting! lol

All the best, to you on your birthday; and blessings for your newest project.

Can you ask Santa, if you know him; to put Joseph Fiennes himself in my Christmas Stocking this year?(shameless, but blushing smiles.)

Happy Birthday Shekhar.Your little daughter is lucky to have you for a father.God bless.

Hi Shekhar,

If this is YOUR wealth, then who are you?

Find out, I asure you that the answer to this if ever you find out will be very interesting...

Harb

Every sentiment sounds beautiful and worthy treasures to bequeath, except this one "My wealth lies in the pain and the heartache of living." Why does this coin have only one side?

You are a wealthy man indeed. Thank you for sharing your beauty with us on your birthday.

Love, Kristin

Your wealth also includes the entity that's YOU...the person you are...Happy Birthday Shekhar! Can't wait for the Golden Age...

- Sunil

Hope you had a fabulous birthday, Shekhar! Beautiful words :) You're a wealthy man indeed!

Dear Shekhar,
I will tell you a BIG secret on your birthday. This is a secret for everyone who wants to bring abundance into their lives:

The more you share your wealth with others, the more it will grow!

Love and Cheers!
Navin

PS: I bet you knew this secret already. (wink)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHEKHAR, HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY.

OH BY THE WAY IF THOSE ARE YOU WEALTH CAN I HAVE YOUR MONEY PLEASE

CAN WE EXPERIENCE ANYTHING IF WE CANNOT THINK, MAY BE THAT IS THE TRUE WEALTH, ABILITY TO THINK. WHAT DO YOU THINK SHEKAR?

Dear :)

Ya, I know the wink symbol. Thanks, but it just doesn't come out that clearly. I wish Mallika and Alex would incorporate smilies on this blog. It would make communicating here much more fun.

Dear Mallika,
You took my suggestion of allowing posters to start new topics with your OPEN THREAD initiative, I hope you would also introduce smilies on this site. Think about it.

Cheers!
Navin

Dear Shekhar,

Happy birthday, and thankyou for the gift of this beautiful expression.

Peace,
Scott.

Aloha Shekhar

We create God in the image of our parents. The paradigm shift is awakening to know our parents are our children because they do the best they can with what knowledge they have and our children are our parents because they teach us we are powerless. Happy New Beginnings Shekhar in joining the breath of your daughter as she is the breath of delightful uncertainty,love patty

Beautiful poetry. But you will have to change your mind when children gets older. :-)

And Happy Birthday to you. When is your next movie coming up? Not the so-called Hollywood productions, but in India?

Shekar Bhai,

There are 3 things every man remembers...
Your First Love,
Your First Kiss,
Your Birthday....Many happy returns of the day

PS: Hope to see u among the Top 10 Hollwood Directors by your daugter's 10th birthday

Hi Shekhar

What a sweet and moving piece to write for your daughter -- she's lucky to have you as her Dad :) .

Cheers, Heather

Happy Birthday Shekhar...May you have a very happy healthy and wealthy life

Happy Birthday Shekhar! May God bless you & your family... :)

WHO is this MY?

Dear Harb,
Williamson Magor again up 10% more today. This means 20% gain in one week! You missed it buds. You should have bought when I told you.

Cheers and Good luck!
Navin

Shekhar,

I enjoyed reading your prose poem you wrote yesterday for your daughter. I write/translate poetry for fun. I tried to give another rendering to it using most of your words and phrases. I hope she enjoys it.

Cheers

To my daughter on my birthday

Daughter, I am writing this
To you on my birthday today.
My wealth lies in my failures
More than in my successes.

It lies in the people I have known
And in the people I have lost.
It's in the pains and heartaches
Of my living day by day.

It lies in those moments
I shared love with others
And in the moments of leaving
When they had to go.

My wealth lies in my dreams
Still unfulfilled, and in the longings
And passions that are still my dreams.
My wealth lies in passions I could express

And in those that are still unexpressed.
My wealth lies in my moments of guilt,
It lies in actions done or undone,
The burden I carry is too my wealth.

In every breath I ever breathed
Filled with doubts and fears,
Filled with questions and dreams,
My wealth lies in each of them.

And this wealth, my dear daughter,
All of it I bequeath to you,
It is all yours now,
Squander it to the winds…

Daddy

Navin,

Age ton khyal rakhoonga, as you were saying it will double in a year i thought it will go slow and so thought I will collect it by and by. Surely missed the chance.

Anyway, thanks nd cheers for your profits!!

Harb

Dear Harb,
Accumulate Gujarat Alkali, Hiran Orgoch & Avanti Feeds in every weakness. They are all doubling candidates in a year's time. I am usually conservative while giving price targets.......I like to promise less and deliver more ;)coz that's my style. It leaves a greater impact on clients too. LOL.

Cheers!
Navin

shekhar,
ur daughter is very lucky to recive such a valuable gift ..

Sorry Shekhar! I didn't mean to disrupt your blog here. On clicking the contact link it gives this message: Contact information is coming soon-- for now, please contact us via the comments section in individual posts.

I simply tried to contact the webmaster and realised that my interest in "writing" actually got published here.

Sorry bout that.

Have a great day.

Tushar

Hello ji:

Happy birth day!

Sheena

Very good writing.I hope your daughter understands it..i mean..i hope she is mature-enough to get the essence of this work.

What a priceless gift u've bequeathed to ur daughter!....My dad had written a few words for me, when I was born, many moons ago!...I quote,
'Today was born a sweet doll,
She's my world, from now on..
I bequeath her everything, my all,
My love will carry on even when I'm gone.'

He gave it to me on my 18th b'day....I treasure it more than anything in this world! :)
