Mother's Day.
we all know that mother's day is just around the corner.. i wish i could spend mine with my mum. but, i will definitely make it up to her when i go to USA.
this was my arrival at MSP airport.. in dec 07. that's the last time i saw my mum! a really long time ago.. she's such an inspiration to me. she's more than just my mum, she's my friend.. and i really miss her!
haha we have fun together (: we put up our hoods just for fun and we were laughing at each other in the process! hahaha! (: even though i was complaining about the cold, looking back at pictures only bring back good memories.. memories of the times we've shared together..
we used to share food all the time! (from mc donald's happy meals when i was younger to our traditional banana splits). each time i look at a meal i can't finish, or a nice meal, i think of how much nicer it would be if i could share it with my mum..
and the scenery.. i was never quite the nature lover. it was mostly inspired by my mum. she would be the one to point out the nice sky.. show me many pictures, and tell me how beautiful the sky looked...
i now realise how beautiful it is, and i wish, she was here so i could share this with her. i wish i could stand with her and just gaze at the beauty of the sky, just like how she taught me to. now i know, i've got to slow down, appreciate the things i so often take for granted. now i know, that no matter what, the world is a beautiful place, if only i can see. sometimes it's not the image but the perception.
i've become a strong mature and independent woman. i've learned to appreciate nature, put my trust in God no matter what, and dream big dreams. i've seen them happen for my mum, and i know they can happen for me to.
to a woman full of strength, character and love,
to a woman sent to me from above,
to a woman who showed me life,
to a woman who shared her life,
to a woman as beautiful as the stars,
to a woman i dearly love,
mum,
i love you!
thank you for everything.
happy mother's day! (:
