Cute Letter from a newly married girl to
her mother:
Dear mom,
Like every normal girl, I was excited
about marriage right from my childhood
days. I never thought beyond the time that I would spend happily with my prince
charming.
But today when I am married, I realize
that marriage is not all roses. Itβs not just
about being with your beloved and having
a gala time. There is so much more to it. It comes with its own share of
responsibilities, duties, sacrifices and
compromises.
I canβt wake up anytime I want to.
I am expected to be up and ready before
everyone else in the family. I canβt laze around in my pyjamas
throughout the day.
I am expected to be presentable every
time.
I canβt just go out anytime I want to.
I am expected to be sensitive to the needs of the family.
I just canβt hit the bed anytime I want to.
I am expected to be active and around
the family.
I canβt expect to be treated like a
princess but am supposed to take care of everyone else in the family.
And then I think to myself, βwhy did I get
married at all?β I was happier with you,
mom. Sometimes I think of coming back
to you and getting pampered again.
I want to come home to my favourite food cooked by you every evening after a nice
outing with friends. I want to sleep on
your laps like I have no worry in this
world. But then I suddenly realize, had
you not got married and made such
sacrifices in your life, I wouldnβt have had so many wonderful memories to hang on
to. And suddenly, the purpose of all this
becomes clear- to return the same
comfort, peace and happiness to my new
family that I got from you.
And I am sure that as time would pass, I would start loving this life equally as you
do. Thank you mom for all the sacrifices
and compromises you made. They give
me the strength to do the same. Love
you.
