A Letter to My Mother 

It's been a while since I last wrote a blog. (I'm sorry, life comes at you thick and fast). I don't know if you've ever realised but this blog has become something of a personal journal as well to me. And today, in the name of Mother's day (even though I'm a day late), I'd like to write a letter to my mother. 

Dear Ma, 

Life is fleeting and you may never know what will happen to you the next day, next week, or next month. During the trials and tribulations of life, you've been a constant. Your love is boundless like the universe, ever growing and it is without limit. A mother's love is unconditional. You embrace me when I lash out on you. You kiss me upon my cheek when harsh words escape my lips. You brush my hair lovingly when I  have argued with you. It seems as though you have inherited the patience of the Gods, showing affection when I do not deserve it. As guilt fills me for mistreating you, I can only hope to shower you with the same love that you give me. I want to apologise and give back to you tenfold, hundredfold - hell, even a millionfold if I can. It has only been my dream to spoil you as you have wished to spoil me all your life.

It is not only because you are composed with a temperamental brat (please, I am just joking!) such as I, but you have also made me open my eyes to truly see what life is. I was caught up in the superficial achievements of life that are tangible and can be measured, but truly living and cherishing the memories that we make daily. As cliché as it may seem, it is not about the destination but about the journey. I've been through some major breakthroughs, changing my mindset about life to truly appreciate life for whatever it is. Through the misery and the pleasure of it all. 

Not only that, you have made me appreciate myself. Time and time again, I choose to put myself down and allow negativity to consume me. However, you throw out a lifeline. You drag me out of the sea of pessimism that I often find myself in. Maybe it is a mother's love to put her child on a pedestal, but I find that my mother never exaggerates of my achievements or raves about me. Rather, she opens my eyes to truly make me see what I have accomplished in life when I cannot see it. When I am overtly critical and full of self-doubt, she is the ray of sunshine and optimism in my life. 

A mother's love is truly one of a kind.

She is like none other. 

She is my mother. 

Love you, Ma

Your loving daughter, 
Aurora
