To Mom, With LOVE: A Celebration of our bond


Yes, I have met God. I know how God looks like and I know what it feels to be with God.
I have seen my God crying for me, laughing with me, fighting for me, playing with me… 
MY GOD is my MOM.



Pyaari Maa,

You taught me never to feel lesser than anyone. For you I am the best kid in the world. You were the one who taught me that nothing is impossible for her baby girl, for she is the best.

But today, Sorry Mom! I found something impossible.

I have to admit that repaying you, your love debt is impossible for me. Even if I give you all the years of my life, I will not be able to pay back even a minute fraction of your love.
You have shed more tears than me, when I was in pain.
 You have shed even more tears, the tears of happiness and satisfaction, when I was in joy. Such is your LOVE.

I have misbehaved with you, fought with you and even pledged not to talk to you after small fights. But half an hour later it was you who came to me to apologize for MY mistakes.
When I asked you, "why did you apologize?".
You said, "Because it was my mistake".
But deep down, we both knew, you just wanted me to feel satisfied and have a bite of the delicious food you just cooked for me.

This acha baccha is me, my brother is the evil one . Because ek mayaan mei do talwaarein nahi reh sakti :)

You are the only person who has so much patience to listen to my same, uninteresting story again and again and again. You are the one I hurry to whenever I am in trouble.
Mom, you are the purest form of love for me.

I know by this time tears of happiness will be rolling down from your beautiful eyes and you must be waiting to tightly hug me.
But hold on mom. Let me pour my heart out to you.

Mom, I am not as strong as you think. I am so weak that I can’t even breathe without you. I owe my every breath to you and papa. I know, your prayers are behind my every smile.
Just as my 4th grade Mathematics, you are the foundation of all my life concepts. Mom, if you are there, there is nothing in the world that is too difficult for me to achieve.

Mom, I am incomplete without you and there is nothing in the world that can replace you.

Mom, just be with me. Always.

"Maa tum jiyo hazaaron saal
 saal ke din hon pachaas hazaar
suraj roz aata rahe, roz gaata rahe
leke kiranon ke mele
palachhin, kaliyaan gin, gin teraa har din
tab tak rangon se khelen
rang jab tak baaki hai bahaaron mein
Maa tum jiyo hazaaron saal
saal ke din hon pachaas hazaar...”

Aapki Ishu
