Hello Siya,
Like every year, this year too I shall write something for you. Well, I do know that you find them boring today but someday when you are my age and you have kids, you will show them what all nani ma would tell about you :-).
So like every year, even this year your biggest complain is "I don't want to turn 15" basically saying "I don't want to grow up". And I always tell everyone, growing up is absolutely lovely. Yes, of course there are responsibilities, there are challenges but its all worth it. I had written for my cousin sometime back on growing old. I shall dedicate this to you as well today:
Get Old, Get Wise
It's ought to be lovely to get old,
Yes, you definitely get bold,
One stops worrying about what others think,
And you enjoy life more is what I think.
It's ought to be lovely to get old,
U are much more warm and aren't cold,
Your experience is what charms others,
And rudeness and curt behaviour is what does not bother.
It's ought to be lovely to get old,
Difficult you shall find to get sold.
You learn to transition to a state of being right,
You have learnt enough from your mistakes and hence no oversight.
It's ought to be lovely to get old,
So there is more to do for yourself than have other to mould,
Your laugh for yourself and dance for yourself,
And start realizing that ranks, marks and appraisals are not worth for defining ourself.
It's ought to be lovely to get old,
Be fearless and grateful, and smile on untold,
Take a leap one last time at whatever you feel correctly told,
There is a reason why it is said old is gold.
During these COVID times, I know you are getting terribly bored especially when you have been planning this birthday for a year. Stay assured, this too will get over and we will SHINE! Then we can party and celebrate together.
Happy birthday my love and mom dad just love you!
