Ethrayum priayppetta pankiyacchanu...

Hello... Santhoshatthinte sadhwaarttha! Pankiyacchante ee makalude jeevithatthile ettravum mahathwameriya dhivasam December 6th 2008 Saturday 4 P.M. Gnaan veettilottu ezhuthunnathinu mumbe aadhyam ezhuthunnathu pankiyacchanaanu./ Pankiyacchaa, innu enikku parayaan patrum pankiyacchante Hema extraordinary girl aanennu! Gnaan orikkalum karuthiyilla, naadodiyum, vaayaadiyum 'udhaaramadhiyaaya swaarttha' (ee word ormayundo? Pankiyacchanthanne enne visheshippicchathu.)yumaaya hema, ellaam vittu ellaa koottukaareyum vittu, krooshithanaaya yesuvinte swanthamaakunnu!

Oru puthiya janmam labhicchamaathiriyundu enikku. Ororo sandharbham varumpozhum gnaan pankiyacchane orkkaarundu. especially when i use water more than it need, when i eat mixture with rice, when i drink black coffee, when i see the slippers in blue which have no bottom, etc. I remember I learnt parts of speech first from you father as well as the speech of love, the values of life. I know if I had the vocation means, the seed has sown by you pankiyaccha... So all the credit and thanks goes to you pankiyaccha, when i stand before the altar.

I am not at all finding difficulty in practicing poverty, because in me, long before, the love of poverty was grown... I still remember the shirt which has not ironed and rolling behind the last portion of the shirt!!

pankiyaccha you know, innu enikku parayaan patrum now the person whom i share most is mummy. She writes beautiful letters, i wanted to cut and send to you. I never thought i will gain her in my life. See pankiyaccha, am i not extraordinary?

pankiyaccha, i thank God for the great gift of pankiyacchan in my life, especially for those my childhood days. taught me how to comb my hair, how to put buttons in my shirt, how to cut the nails in time especially how not to talk hidingly while attending Mass. above all pankiyacchan taught me to love, to be sincere, to stand for the truth, to respect relationship and to respect the poor. This is all the wealth for me now to love God and others without counting the cost.

Religious life seems to be very challenging, at the same time thrilling. Challenging in the sense that stand alone in midst of trials and say 'no' to myself moment by moment, thrilling means to devout myself selflessly to works of charity and experiencing God's tender love and healing more closely.

krooshidanaaya yesuvinodoppam vivaaha vediyilottu kaaledutthu vaikkumpol pankiyacchante aadhmeeya saannithyam ennodoppam undaakumennu gnaan urappaayum vishwashikkunnu. ee prathyeka dhanya nimishatthil anugrahatthinaayi thalakunicchuknondu,

otthiri snehatthode,

pankiyacchante hema mol.

On the margins: I wish Panky acchan could come that day. Pray for me/ but if it is not possible, it is O.K. specially and bless me... I do not know Panky acchan is able to come for my profession or not. I know it is so difficult and costing. So I accept it.
