To Raida

You have not seen what I have seen. I have seen a girl getting trampled with our spiteful words. I have seen a girl with her shields of soft nature trying to cover all her peers from getting blamed just like her. It was her day, it was her show. She was trying so hard to keep everything like a gentle river's flow. And we forgot how sweet, mild and obedient she was so, instead we kept nailing her only with her mistakes. But at the end of the day when she took the stage, she was a heavenly embodiment of bright and sparkling light with laughter, as if stars were laughing with her! So restless and happy on that stage just like the Tinker Bell, it was a sight a thousand times you can tell. She was returning love and respect to everyone, even the ones who have hurt her with words all day long.... most of the times uncalled for and totally wrong. That forgiving young girl on stage forgetting all our vice.... showed me how to be a real loving, forgiving human being.... and there was tears in my eyes. (02.06.2024)
