Empty nest series — 6 — You are an inspiration
yes, you are for me. You are the only person in the whole world whom I can say as I feel.
So isnt that enough for u to be a inspirer. The non judgemental demenor you tend to all interactions makes you one great listener. Interjecting only when its warrented makes it all the more sweet.
You taught us the parents the toxicity of codependency. We didnt know otherwise, how not to cling to another loved one but be present. We clung on you, but you set the right boundaries and taught to us how to be there but not be there always to stink.
You gave an opportunity for me understand trust better. The unconditional trust I developed being your mother, made me reevaluate my trust with others.
Might cannot give a proof point for this. Thats a fact most of mothers can vouch and help me validate.
Just as we all have our quirks, one of yours being cross for malayali stuff. I had trained you better….but to turn North with the Punjabi pop and Punjabi expletives which mostly glorifies mysogyny, but as they say its all in the famous from just- tongue humour. What they mean is that they didnt mean it, but slipped out of the tip of tongue, while doing a bangra jolt.
So by that logic, you need to look more south. We are more logical.
