The Time Has Come.

When I was young your touch used to make me feel secure. You held my fingers and taught me how to walk. Whenever I use to fall it was you who used to get hurt more than me. You understood what I meant even with my unspoken words.
You have supported me in my hard times and taught me how to overcome them. Whenever I was dejected and needed someone you were there always and acted on behalf of my friends. You did everything possible to make me happy and fulfil all my dreams.

 You gave me the first human tenet on how to behave with others because of which I am able to muddle through life and society. You made my toughest challenge into a modest situation and made me strong in order to face the world. You showed me the world in different and beautiful ways.
 Now as I have grown up and can feel how much you have done for me, whatever I do for you will never be sufficient. Your love is above all and has no comparison.

The time has come where I must hold your hand and never let you down. I know you will never reveal how much you have done for me. But as I have grown to adult hood and can realise all your love and sacrifices done for me, it is my opportunity to give you happiness and fulfil all your dreams. I too want to do something for you. Love you Mom and Dad. Thank you for everything.

(Dedicated especially to my parents and parents all over the world and to those people who do not have time for their parents.)
