In a world which isn’t getting any better to thrive, I want to tell you that I feel blessed to have you in my life. The love that I have for you will accompany me till my last. Doesn’t matter how old I get or how old you get, you’ll continue to be my little angel.
Love, my dear, is a precious commodity, so preserve it in a well-secured safe. And never forget to shower it generously on your own self because if you don’t, nobody will ever love you. It doesn’t matter on what you are or who you become. Look into the mirror and do tell that ‘you’re beautiful’. As long as I am there, I’ll do it for you but once I am gone, do promise to keep loving yourself, for me.
In a world where you’ll always be judged, more so-on the physical front, never let others measure you. Every colour is beautiful, so embrace the colour you’re in. Embrace the shape you’re born with. With age, your body won’t listen to you. It’ll grow and try to drown your confidence in the flab of disapprovals. Even the stretch marks will try to hold you back. Never fear, dear, they come with a purpose. They teach you that exteriors are forever changing. Change is the only constant and acceptance is all you have. Accept yourself, love yourself and let the beauty inside you never lose its sheen. This is true beauty, one that transcends all barriers of age.
Never be scared to fall in love. Love is the beauty of life. Let heartbreaks never break you down. Remember people who leave you where never worth keeping. Plus, love is not only between a man and a woman. It has no defined boundaries and feel free to explore it all. Never forget to love another human being. Never forget to feel the warmth all around. I have had two pets and they have never failed to teach me few lessons on unconditional love. They licked all my sadness in difficult moments. Their touch healed the wounds of despair and frustration. Have a pet, I recommend. But love and care for them, always.
Men will come and men will go. But there will be a special one who would be willing to look into your eyes and see the beauty of your soul. One who would like to grow old with you and be ready to hold your hand to help you cross the road. One who’ll never think you’re old and will still love every bit of you (including the stretch marks and weight). One who will worry if you get late and give you a space called ‘home’ to come back to. Although he might never tell you that he loves you (from the one who won’t spare a minute proclaiming his love to you), but his eyes will tell you and his face will brighten up to see you. More than love, he is the one who will respect you. He will be the one who’ll leave his closest friends if they speak ill about you (and will do his level best to hide the details from you). He will be your best friend, one you can love and fight with. To whom you’ll always be his ‘girl’, his valued possession and despite the age he’ll always be concerned about your security in this big bad world.
Dear Angel, you’ll surely get your special one but don’t lose hope if he takes long to come. Please understand, the world isn’t small and he might take a much longer time to find you. But once you find him, don’t let him go. Love him. Respect him and most important never break his trust. Temptations are plenty but love conquers it all. Remember, most men would love to take you to a room but only few will make home with you.
Never fail to make mistakes. But let everyday be a day of fresh mistakes. Failures are great teachers of success. So never fear if you lose. Keep taking risks without any fear of losing the battle. Because it takes courage to face your loss and those who fall gracefully, rise higher. There is no shame taking a fall even if the world will look down upon you. Remember, they have to bend their neck to aim at you while you’ll hold your head high to catch their view. If bad times seem longer then remember good times will follow soon. As the wise had said “nothing lasts forever” so bad times won’t last too.
Although, I’ll never have a chance to mother you. But I’m a daughter and the bonds I’ve with my Maa is nothing that I’ll ever have with anyone else. We love, laugh, share and sometimes fight too. I will always be a part of her and most times she just knows what I want, even before I could utter. Life has thrown me with many challenges and I have survived because I know she is there to hold me tight, lift me up when I fall, pray for me when I need prayers and be there for me even when I am standing all alone.
At last, my child, have children, lots of them. They let you live life, all over again. You know they are there, even after you’re long gone. And trust me, when they call you ‘maa’, your whole world changes.
I pray, God is kinder to you and gives you even my share of happiness.
