It was like waiting for several long weeks, months, and the formalities seemed never ending; people it seemed were not bothered enough but then all the pieces kept falling into the correct places and then today it the day, my darling son bids us a farewell and departs to pursue his degree and takes his first step towards independent life, where we will not be there to guide him, more aptly shout at him for every misdemeanor rather mistake, today it seems we have really been very harsh with him but then sometimes bringing up children makes us take difficult decisions!
Today I can only pray for him
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
traditional gaelic blessing
Good bye Son and Good luck! May Allah guide you and bless you!
