Being there for someone - 55th Day

Thanks to my uncle, we finally got in touch with a cousin whose mom passed away about 15 to 18 years ago , when she was 6 years old and her dad never let us talk to her. Finally today we got the opportunity to get in touch with her, got to hear her voice and after so many years, we found out that she is doing great and is pursuing her Engineering. This was a great moment for us and for her too, as she was touched to know that we still remembered her and we were concerned about her. We even gave her the offer to come over to Canada , live with us and do her further studies. It was really nice to know that she is ok and doing good.
Losing a loved one itself is a big deal at such a small age and on top of that losing all the family member's support must be a shock. Today she got to know that all her family members are there for her if she ever needs us for anything. I made sure she understood that she can contact me anytime she needs, for anything. Just to let her know she was not alone and we are all there beside her, just a phone call or an email away. Hope this empowers her and gives her strength to stand up strong.
Family is a big thing and family's support is basis of life. Knowing that one has someone to lean on , to rely on for support, gives comfort in the thought itself. Be someone's support and be there for when they need you the most.
