Hey…

I hope all of you are doing well…

I hope this new week,
that all of you started is blessed with positivism,
and a learning experience that helps you develop,
(In a positive direction…)

Also,
today’s prompt,
comes at a time when all,
literally all of us think about it almost all of the time,
also, for those who brought us into the world,
our parents who also deserve much needed retirement and peace,
in their ever-running life…

Well,
there are many who have a dream of having a buttload of money,
and with that having all of the riches,
all of the things needed in this life,
waiting for your disposal,
but,
of what is the worth those things,
which only come in your life after all you have done is struggle all your life,
spending time away from your loved ones,
in order to spend the last few with them…?

Instead,
I’d rather have a house that has a family,
my family in which there are people who I can call mine,
my children and their children,
and we live in a big house all together..

In the evening as I return to the home,
I am wished by my grandkids,
and their happy faces which make my day much better,
as my children and their s/o’s return from their place of work,
I’m there present at home,
and wait their return…

All of us,
have dinner,
as we are sitting,
on a table that is big enough for our family and the Grandkids too,
as and we are done with the dinner,
we go out and take a walk in out garden Infront of our house,
as I am in the arms of my beloved,
as I stare into her eyes,
and the moon,
as we sit on the bench when we feel a bit tired,
and the walk home as we are surrounded by the kids that call us Daadi and dada( Grandma and grandpa)…

Isn’t that one of the life’s best treasures…?

Having a home full of people,
waiting for your return,
instead of earning everything fast and crashing hard early,
but,
building a life that is enjoyable even till the very end…?

Cheers 🥂

Love Waakiye 🤍
