The Smile that Greets Me Every Morning

0 comments

...comes from my parents whom I love dearly.

There are days when I wake up with a sudden grump on my face. Well, not because of a bad mood but merely due to lack of sleep!! My dad would then greet me a Good Morning with a smile. Wow, that changes everything. It makes me reply a good morning too with a smile on my face. It feels good to be greeted by my parents. It makes me remember how blessed I am. I receive a bountiful of blessings everyday - my parents for instance. Their mere presence... knowing that they are still here with me. They're alive. They're breathing.

There are times when I see them together. Yes, my mom and dad together... They're getting old.... Getting white hair and wrinkles on their faces. Biologically-speaking, elastin and collagen from their skin are slowly deterioriating... and the smell of old people – it's becoming more and more distinct. Those facts make me sad. Really sad... There are times when I cry out of the blue because I'm afraid that sooner or later they would leave me behind.. here on Earth. Me... struggling on my own.... without them. I can never see that happening still. I'm not ready. Who's  ready anyway? So here I am crying yet again.... I want to show them that I love them so much before they leave me... How emotional can I get? All I can do now is pray... for their health... that they may live longer; may enjoy their last years on Earth.
