My dear Tatagaru!!!
I am so unfortunate.... I lost you when i was just 3yrs old....When I was in school we had Shakespeare's literature and the vocabulary was too hard for me to understand....I used to come home and ask dad "what this particular word mean" ?? and he used say this is a very complicated language and I am sorry I cant help you....why don't you go and clarify it with your teacher...but my teacher too doesn't know the meaning of it :)....On that day I felt "If my tatagaru is still alive...I would have learned everything"....

And you know what happened then?? I think you listened to me that moment....My eyes suddenly felt on "CHAMBER'S DICTIONARY"...I never saw that book before...that was my first meeting with that book...I opened it and on the very first page I found your name written on it with your own handwriting....I went through that dictionary and I found the meaning of the word I was searching for :) I was overwhelmed....From that day Chamber's dictionary has taught me lots of things...It never made me disapoint....I am asking it and it is showing me the meaning...I started referring some more dictionaries such as oxford etc etc but they never satisfied me....I found the meaning of the word in Chambers which was not given in Oxford....

I always feel your are with me in the form of Chamber's dictionary clarifying all my doubts and teaching me how to pronounciate particular word....Tatagaru as you know, my schooling was not so good as dad had frequent transfers...and you know how schools in a small town teach english but with your help I am able to speak good english now....sometimes I loose my confidence while speaking to others but then I will sit with you to gain back my confidence....

Thank you for presenting me such a wonderful book....I will cherish it through out my life...And you will be with me always in the form of Chambers dictionary...This particular moment of my life taught me that although you are not physically present with me your soul loves me and listens to me...

Love you loads
