When I was young and naive;
My mom said unto me;
Listen with your heart
My dear child;
I shall leave you one day;
And I can only give you so much;
I have shown you the path,
But you must walk it your self;
I have taught you all I could;
Hope that you will remember well;
Live your life with responsibility;
Be brave and persistent;
Be independent and wise;
Be a gentleman and not a reckless fool..
Start your life as a river;
End it in the oceans;
Life is alike the flowing waters;
With many ups and downs;
Going thru many turns and streams;
No matter how you start,
Do not end it with regret;
Life shall be beautiful;
If you view it as such;
Life is about experiencing
And experiencing brings life to us;
Live it with compassion and wisdom;
I love you for who you are
and may you be blessed with all happiness...
These words are all entrenched in my heart;
And they are my source of inspiration;
Rest well Mama,
I shall disappoint you not.
