Mother’s day special

To amma and appa with love

My amma is not amma just to us(my sis and me) but to all my neighbours here or when she was in Bangalore. Any girls or women with any problem however, small or big would come to my amma to rant out their problems or worries. She gave them  patient listening and advice without hurting anyone. Even her sisters-in-law love her and talk to her though some of them are of her age. She inculcated my sis and me with values without any preaching or advice. She did not have google gurus to raise teenage daughters neither  dish out recipes from across the globe yet we had wonderful ,happy and secure childhood.She is neither strict nor harsh, her polite and soft voice would just make us listen to her.I don’t need a mother’s day to say how much I love you and appa ,you know it.but I don’t blog everyday.

How to thankyou………

amma and appa,

For your love and sacrifice

For your Preseverence and endurance

For your creativity and sensitivity,

For your patience and resilience,

For your sympathy and empathy

For your strives and smiles,

For your kindness and selflessness

For sleepless nights and for my mindless fights

For your fears and tears

And for all the  cheers

I wish I could repay with thanks and gratitude

For all your pain and all my gain but

I know I can never repay

I remain indepted to you both

For my growth

Just say you both mean the world to me

And I love you both
