Beauty in everything
This story was written in response to the prompt “Celebrating the quiet moments of love.”
There are only two ways to live your life: Nothing is a miracle, or Everything is a miracle -Albert Einstein.
I believe in the second option. This enables me to spot wonders in the most ordinary moments.
After all, life is about creating beautiful memories from the tiny moments of love. Every day.
It was 11 pm. As Dad sat down to have his dinner, he noticed me sitting on the couch checking my phone. Before taking his first bite, he deliberately asked me if I would like some.
Although I was in no mood, I nodded YES. My Dad immediately stood up from the chair to feed me without spilling it. I jolted back to the reality of being a middle-aged grown-up woman.
In the profound quietness that followed, he made me realize that I was his princess. And will always be!
The overflowing Joy escaped my full-blown heart through the happy tears 💗
A couple of days later…
After twisting and turning in her bed for a while, she diligently said: “Mommy, I can’t sleep yet. Is it ok if I talk to you for a few more minutes?”
I confidently rolled my eyes in the dark and replied: “of course!”
Her excitement grew leaps and bounds as she continued: “Tell me, mommy, how was your day?”
Her kindness put my solitude to shame. Even in her sleepless moment, she cares to ask about me first.
It never stops to amaze me how kids are so natural at loving unconditionally. The gift of having my own princess!
I secretly wished that moment to last forever!! 😇
