10th July
24 years ago, Ma and Dad were thrown together on a bumpy path. Daddy was outgoing and opinionated. And Ma, dearest Ma, was quiet and reserved, and stubborn in her own way.
I won't go into clichés of how far they have come since that day, or of how perfect they are together. And I won't go into those clichés of wishing them a long, joyous life together. Neither feels appropriate.
No, I just quietly wish them all the happiness they can make for themselves. And I make a quiet promise to myself, that I shall do my bit towards that end. Ma, daddy, I love you so very much.
