I was trying to figure out what my family means to me and somehow when i started thinking about my mom, brain came to my mind. She is the one who guides me, who makes me think about the positives in life, see the light at the end of the tunnel and basically always make me think and feel positive. Even after so much advancements, brain transplant or creating a totally artificial brain is impossible just like a mother. She is irreplaceable.
My father would be my eyes. He helped me see the world for what it really was. Took us to foreign lands so we could see and observe other people and cultures. After he passed away, I literally felt the shine and light fade out of my eyes. There seems to be no life in them now; no laughter, no sheen. It’s like I’m looking but not watching anything. I’m smiling a smile which isn’t reaching my eyes.
My husband is my body. Without him, I’ll be paralysed. He is my hands and feet. He backs me up and supports me to move forward and catch things that come my way. He is extremely critical for my existence and by taking care of my body, i feel inner harmony. He gives me balance. In short, my body and soul are inseparable till death.
My kids would definitely be my heart. The only organ that decides the death of a person. A person maybe blind or brain dead or paralysed but if his heart stops beating, he’s considered dead. Hearts are amazing organs, they never stop pumping and never take a break, just like in motherhood and that’s what i feel my kids are to me; My heart.
My brothers are my backbone, my support, always trying to make me comfortable and the reason I stand so tall n proud.
May Allah protect my body n soul and keep each organ healthy and intact. Ameen.
