oxford bicycle 在 Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman Facebook 的精選貼文
Mama,
You’ve always been there for me through thick & thin.
.
You were there when i had to get my head stitched during my first bicycle crash.
.
You were there when i was hospitalised for asthma during my first foolish attempt to smoke to look “cool”.
.
You were there to cheer me on during my first National Debate finals.
.
You were there when i decided to put aside my Oxford studies & scholarship to embarkon a greater jouney, despite the strong resistance at first.
.
You were there when the Police came knocking at our house in search of me at 2am in the morning for my outspokeness.
.
You were there when i graduated from IIUM,but was barred from attending my very own convocation. I remeber how you borrowed the graduation robe and suprised me with it to console me.
.
You were there when our family went through hell with the threats & coercion.
.
Heck, i distinctly remember one of the greatest “insurance” i had back then was knowing that if i ended up in jail, you’ll be the first one to protest *internal joke*.
.
Despite being there for me all the time, i feel disheartened that i can’t be there for you all the time. During your birthday, during Raya celebrations, during family gatherings. The last time you visited me & stayed for almost a week, we didn’t even have much time to talk as i would leave the house for work before you wake up & come back when you’re sound asleep. I can’t keep on blaming “work”. As you thought me before, “di mana ada kemahuan, di situ ada jalan”.
.
You are truly my one and only superwoman. A superwoman who’d wake up at 5am every morning to send Abuyah out to Singapore for work. Then leave to teach and come back at 2pm. Cook lunch, Then teach tuition classes from 4-6pm, then cook dinner, then another tuition class from 8-10pm. You do this everyday. On, weekends, you’ll run x5 2-hour long tuition classes! A superwoman who will insist to cook for the family despite working around the clock.
.
I will forever be in your debt mama. I don’t care if i’m called a “mama’s boy”. Behind every man’s success, there’s a woman. Often that woman, is his mum. That’s my story.
.
Happy mother’s day mama. My one and only superwoman.
