Our Happiest Day in Life: Bunda's Birthday

Happy birthday Bunda.. the woman who gave birth to me 25 years ago.. has turned almost 50 years old today. I am grateful that you seem never age. Although I know it’s hard for you to bear all the difficult times in life alone.. without having someone to rely on.. just would like to say thank you for hanging on and keeping me healthy and alive until now. You are such a good person. As far as I know, life must be hard.. but you did not let me even think of life would be… you made it easy for me along this time. That made me think, what did I do to deserve a mother like you?

Despite the fact that I did not show it to you.. I am not such a sweet person, but I cried a lot just to think that someday you might be also gone.. to heaven. I am writing this.. knowing that you’re still healthy and alive, is such a bliss. I know I am not good with my actions, yet I still hope that you know, I love you always and forever. It took me so long to realize that life has so much more than just heartbreaks and ambitions.. my life has you. Who laughed and listened to me, even if you did not understand a thing. Life has been meaningful at least until now, when I know you sleep in safe and sound condition.

Honestly, life is harder these days, but I do what I love doing. And that makes me at least live to the fullest, to achieve my dreams and hoping that you will still accompany me when that happens. My dreams.. to travel with you and dad back to Japan.. or even to travel to Malaysia or Singapore with much better condition than our first visit back then.

Once again, happy birthday. You are the reason why I am still living my life to the fullest now. I love you.
