Happiness…
To me, happiness is knowing that i will be waking up, having Maia next to me every morning…
To me, happiness is the anticipation of going home after work, knowing that Maia is waiting at the door for me…
To me, happiness is the noisy chatter that Maia makes, which is translated to the most wonderful sound of music to my heart…
To me, happiness is seeing Maia so mischievious and cheeky even till to the very minute she falls asleep…
To me, happiness is to put Maia to bed every night, listening to her sing her l’il songs…
To me, happiness is to hear Maia calls out everyone, even the cat’s name, except "Mommy…"
To me, happiness is to be able to discipline Maia when she is naughty…
To me, happiness is to be able to wipe the tears away from her face, take away her fears and to assure her everything’s going to be alright…
To me, happiness is seeing Maia grow every single day, every single hour, every single minute and every single second…
To me, happiness is having to know, I will be protecting and guiding Maia with my life till the day I leave this world…
To me, happiness is unlocking the Mother’s instinct, to know I can be very brave when it comes to Maia…
To me, Maia is my greatest source of happiness, strength and reason to promise myself to work for a better future for us…
It may be the end of a bad beginning…the end of the road…but not the end of the world…
It may have been a devastating experience in life…but lessons learnt have not been lost….
It may have marked a certain scar in me for long…but to have gain something more valuable cannot be exchanged…
It may be seen as regrets…but seeing Maia, it will be worth the journey to travel through and grow together with her, leaving all baggage of sadness and regrets behind…
Maia - my l’il sunshine in the midst of the gloomy skies…
