Sri:
As the little birdie gets ready to fly out of the nest, I
wonder what the future holds for us… for her and for me…
I know she will come by for breaks, holidays, occasions, but
where is her journey going to take her?
Is she coming back home after these four years, or is this
the new beginning and a voyage that doesn’t end?
Will I remember to buy fewer pounds of vegetables and fruits?
Cook smaller quantities of food?
Am I ready to cope? My memory takes me back to the time when
I was ready to fly out. Full of excitement, curiosity, and hope. It’s now her
turn.
This is the countdown week, and I want to hug her tight.
I keep asking myself, is she ready? The truth is, there is
only one way to find out.
One thing is for sure; the learning never stops.
People say, ‘wow, she’s grown’, but today, I learn, it’s not
just her, but oh my god, I’ve grown.
Thank you, God and thank you, Girl, for these 18 years.
