...BEAU-TI-FUL...
...I saw this work of photographic art and something in my womb seemed to 'leap for joy." Yeah right...well theres nothing in my womb right now, but you know...every woman has a sorta connection to her innermost being!
Anyhoo...it just reminded me of all those times I argued with my mum, all those times she sent me up the stairs to go get her purple hand-bag for her (meanwhile, she had lots of purple hand-bags and if I didn't find the right one, na wahala be dat)...of all those times when she instructed me to get her the remote control and she was sitting down right next to it...of all those times when she sent me to get groceries from a walking distance in the silhouette of the night...of all those late nights when I served her some good pounded yam and spicy vegetable soup (efo)...of all those times when I had to take a message to the next door neighbor for her (in the presence of the next door neighbor's son, well...its a long story) ...of all those times when I had to be the one to make long-distance calls abroad to all the extended family in London, Germany, and the likes...of all those times when she cautioned me about my 'lofers,' (& I'm only now realizing why)... he he...well, then 'love was really blind...' especially high school love...
...all in all sha it made me realize how MUCH I love my mamma and all the reasons why I will never ever take her for granted EVER....hmmm....'sweet mother, I no go forget u, for the suffer wen u suffer for me ye ye...sweet mother, I no go forget u...for the suffer wen u suffer for me..."
Ooops...I think I have class in three minutes...
(actually this was not the original picture that made me fluster and my heart beat at twice its speed...if I get the original picture I'll post it...but u get the point sha! Right???)
