I picked up my thoughts, and some memories, well a lot of them and realized that I have so much to thank you for. Thank you for not being there to trust me when I told you I got the second prize for reading in class 1. You taught me to begin with, that one should never trust the letters on a note, however genuine they may be; it?s always better to be there in person and trust your own eyes.
Thank you for not listening to me when I won my first choreographer?s cup; medals and awards are but reminisces that there are more important things in life, like making roti?s for the little brother; than molded metal. Thank you for allowing me to be beaten to pulp by your mother-in-law; she hated my guts even at 11 years of age. You made me realize that in the most tumultuous of times, I should rely on no one except God; not even you!1
Thank you for never clicking a picture with me when I was dressed as a bride; I know there are so many things one has to manage specially at a daughter?s wedding. After all pics can be photoshopped; memories should include the fact that you allowed this match in the first place.
Thank you for leaving me at my doctor?s when I was told I was to deliver in the night. After all; my hubby was on his way and my step aunt?s Medical student son was more important to be welcomed rather than staying with me. In your own words, I had to anyways go to the Labor all alone?so why not make a start. Thanks a lot for making me so independent and thankful to you for such gems. I would never have learnt it any other way?. Thank you for making me believe a fact that not many can even fathom to understand?that we are all in this world but alone. The only thing to be remembered are two things; the Almighty and our own conscience?.Thank you so much for this Ma! I?ll truly never forget all that you did
