Why are all children so special?
and
why are special children all that "more special"?
No defining characteristic that I can pinpoint nor
can i put my finger on the pulse of that "feeling"..
the feeling that gently tugs at me when I see my child,
my special one..
She turned 4 last week...4 whole years since her birth.I cannot say they have been long years but yes they have been "learning years",a messy yet challenging journey of learning for me as a mother and as an indivdual.
I still recollect those myriad emotions when I discovered that she was born with a rare heart disorder....that incessant "why me",to the racking guilt,the tormenting self-pity,sheer helplessness,anger and just about any negative emotion that you could name...I experienced all of them!
And now..
I have learnt to have faith,courage and hope...that beautiful feeling of never giving up on life and what it has to offer.
and she has that special something which lights up her face and makes her eyes sparkle and shine and her smile,that million dollar smile that lights up our life each and every day. Maybe that's what makes her special.

An angel can be a challenge and a gift. She has so much courage, that she makes us want to try...
Certainly i wont sympathyse with what you are troubling at your emotional level But i would say.. " J" you are bold lady with a rational mind blessed with the natures gift of mothers heart that no man can understand or realise how much he( I ) try. I feel you are one real angel.
I would wish your kid lives with no pain. And you sustaining the emotions with smile is no less wonder than the Holy Nature itself. I believe GOD is not HE . It should be SHE.
Hey!
Nice post.My sis has been going through her initial stages of pregnancy and a lot of "morning sickness". Would ask her to read this one.
Btw, you are on my rss feed and have been a silent reader all this while.
Hafta confess your poems are beyond my comprehension, the ordinary mortal i am.
anyways, congratulations on having a wonderful baby.
Jo - Yes, she is special and you are very special too. Hugs to you both. - Jaya
beautiful post..all angels are manifests of love, bringing out domains of love we did not know existed in us......enginesw for us to grow..rarest of blessings in disguise...
Have you ever noticed how the faces of all adults change when there is a child around? If a child takes public transport, for instance, even the face of the most disgruntled want-to-be-cool type will open up.
i've always felt "Crisis" and the "strength" to bear it have same source
Such love..mother's love to her child is so magnificent ....
Sometime tests of God are so hard on us...He sure does not give something we can not handle
This is a beautiful blog. Children are the secret to the beauty of life. I commend you.
