I used to wonder why my family wasn’t like everyone else’s. Growing up, I only had my mum to rely on. She was my rock, my only pillar of support and both my mother and father. Through the trials we went through, she taught me how to be a strong woman, and how rare unconditional love is. I have never seen a stronger woman than my mum who had to raise 3 kids on her own, forgoing her passions and dreams in the course of it. And despite being let down time and again, she always has this newfound energy within her to accept, forgive and love – till date, I’m still learning from her how to love somebody through their dark times.
Though I may not always show it, I’m immensely grateful for the experiences and memories that my mum and I share, the lessons that she has taught me. I am who I am today because she’s here. I love you, Mummy!
