Shrey - My Brother
May 1, 2022
A friend, a brother, a guardian, a mentor - so many hats my beloved Shrey wore! The universe doesn’t make people like him anymore. Very very rare to be found.
Our families were always closely knit, spending our childhood together, playing as kids occasionally. But our relationship as siblings grew stronger since we shared the same residential college. He was my local guardian at college. Always loving, thoughtful, caring and made me feel that I have my family with me, I was home far away from home. We also started working in the same city and I had him, my brother - my family with me again. He would take me to restaurants, surprise me on birthdays, and always make time, always be there. While others dropped birthday messages, a call from Shrey first thing in the morning would made me feel so loved.
I always looked forward to be a part of his wedding but little did I know that the universe had other plans. I would always say that even if hell breaks loose, even if I am on my deathbed, I would make it to his wedding, to see him smile, to see him happy.
When I recall all these incidents and stories, I can only say he was a GEM OF A PERSON! And it pains me immensely to say that I have lost that gem. It has been a year since the unfortunate incident, and not a single day passes by without remembering his smiling face, his husky voice. I miss him every day. My world will never be the same without him.
Shrey’s absence has made me realise and accept the truth that we are just drops in the ocean, our time on this earth is controlled by the universe. So whatever time we have left, we should spend it with our loved ones.
Shreyance had showered millions of lifetimes of love to his loved ones in a short span of time. His life has taught me to love, care and value relationships beyond everything. And I am striving to be like him
Shrey - you’ve created a permanent void in my heart that can never be filled. I love you and miss you my brother.
