Sharing Our Innermost Thoughts

“You never disappointed me… Not even once… Thank you for growing up into a good child and becoming my source of happiness.” I wish I could hear such words from my parents.

We unknowingly expect a lot or a lil bit of something from people around us. I seek attention and care… not from everyone but from my family members. Growing up… In every family gathering during festivals or birthdays, all my siblings were a topic of discussion. She got so skinnier, he got taller…my siblings hated being talked about. But I always wondered why nobody talks about me… All the elders notice other kids but why am I like an air to them. Talking about these things makes me feel like I am complaining about silly things that should not be cared about. I should not feel this way. Or maybe should I.
