A Letter To Son

Dear Son, You came as a blessing when life had become harsh to me. I had lost almost all hope of living, and then you arrived like a shining star. My prayers for a little more time in this life were answered in the form of you. When doctors were losing hope and temples had begun to replace hospitals, your arrival rang through my life like a sacred bell. With you, I slowly began to forget my pain and embrace life once again. With every passing year and with you by my side, I feel as though I have been given a second life. Not knowing how far I will walk beside you, the only wish I carry today is for your well-being. I want you to rise to great heights, to love your father, your sister, and your grandparents with all your heart. I want you to be a good soul, a kind heart, and a helping hand to those in need. I want you to spread warmth wherever you go and leave every life a little better than you found it. If I remain by your side, I will be the happiest mother. And if one day I am not, know that I will still be the brightest star in the sky, smiling down at you, shining through your happiness and your success. With all my love, Mom
