My asks

A steady mind without

A peaceful life without

Self imposed filters
A light heart without
the burden of the past

A child like innocence
to appreciate little things
An adult like maturity
to get along with life

Right from my childhood, she gave me the feeling that I was the most knowledgeable person, the best in everything, when she had so much within her. The greatest thing about her was that she was there for me always, a shoulder to lean, eyes to cry for me (though not in front of me), heart to pray and a patient ear to listen.
