I made a short trip back to my childhood and came back feeling young again. For a few precious days, I forgot my adulthood and become my parents' child again. And then, as I was leaving, it hit me that I was leaving behind two frail old children who were pretending to be big and strong. Just as I had pretended to be little and fragile. Our roles have reversed now. I am the adult and they are the ones that need care. And yet we both continued to pretend that they were strong and I was small. Because playing that game , letting them take care of me, made them and me both feel young again. Love you lots amma and appa.
