When you come home with tired eyes and a groggy
trot, but still smile to greet us, we understand what you feel and why….
When you’re feeling relaxed, but one of us invades
your peace or makes a sly remark, we understand what you feel and why...
When you just want to sleep but we keep blaring
the T.V on high volume and you get furious, we understand what you feel and
why...
When you give us advice, even if it’s in a stern
tone, we understand what you say and why.
It keeps us going merely knowing that
you’re there...
When you really just want to have a simple day but
we add too many twists to it, we understand how you feel and why...
When Mom gets angry about little things while
you’re buried neck-deep in work, we understand the helplessness you feel and why...
When we go out, and your eyes fall on something
you so wish to buy for yourself, but you don’t, we understand what’s in your
mind and why...
Even when you get furious for no apparent reason,
we understand what you feel and why you could be in such a mood,
When you just don’t feel like going out or getting
out of bed, or working that extra hour or travelling that extra-mile, but you do it
anyway, we understand what it means and why you do it...
BUT, what we don’t understand is, HOW
you do ALL of this without any complains, regrets, frowns and zero
demands AND sans thinking of your own self and your care but still
manage to “be happy”…you are happy, aren’t you? –Gautami K
