To the part of me I love the most.

Dearest,

In your struggle against time to be all that you aspire to be sometimes you fail to recognise yourself in the mirror. Today, I want to remind you that you really are incredibly special not because yours is the classic tale of overcoming obstacles and disappointments with charming grace.

But because you are a river.

You keep running. You’ve had to change course cause life made you feel almost dried up. You’ve been on the brink of adventure to have it denied. You’ve had to face mountains you didn’t make and valleys you didn’t create.

You keep running. Because you know the rain is coming and its going to fill you up. You have learnt to hope over and over again and rush towards the unknown. You know deep inside that you have stood the test of time, that you have outlasted frustration.

And now when the voices outside and inside tell you “chances are or chances aren’t…” you still make that bend because you’re you.

And You are headed to the ocean where it’s going to be one glorious sunset after another! The sunset that bounces of gleaming buildings, the large waves and the unidentifiable faces. The ocean that holds all the red sail boats, the sleek bridges and awe-inspiring statues, would be privileged to hold you too.

Love, Me

P. S. This is for and because of A.
