Yesterday we went to see aadum arul jothy. It was magnificent. But akshaya was not there in heart and mind ..only physically there.
Her heart was at home with her dad. And with her siblings at her grandmothers .
I came home alone with her late and her eyes were filled with tears her face full of sadness that couldn't quite be expressed
And you realise
Children are not clay.
For us to shape and mould
To feel what we say they must feel
Like joy at a dance show while their father is flying off for 12 days
Like acceptance that daddy needs to travel but will be back soon
That 12 days is soon
They have such feelings words cannot express
Glassy eyes saying more than words
The brave smile at the mother at the show
Her heart all with her father
Flying off on a business trip
