I was on my way back to my
place from the University when I saw this picture and it instantly engulf me
with tears. Only a mother could endure such pain to love and feed her child. And
here I am on the luxury of studying,
leaving my only child behind with her father and make them endure the pain of
separation. I could have chosen to stay with my family and somebody would have
easily taken the responsibility of filling the gap by studying what I am
studying now and contribute to nation. Everyone says, time heels everything but
no, it is making it worst. As my child grows up, I am not there to let her hold
my finger. When she speaks her first few words, I am not there to cry with joy
with my husband. When she first started to pretend play, I am not there to be
her playmate. I am missing out on so many precious moments that I will never
encounter in my entire life. My girl will never be the same little girl again
and I will never have the memories of her first steps towards growing up and I will
never be able to forgive myself for doing that to my family.
