Happy Birthday

There are a lot of thing I need. Many items I want to buy. Many places I want to go to and many goals I want to achieve. 

Today, for one day, I've put all of it aside. Today there was only one thing I wanted to do. Unfortunately I was no able to do it. I didn't even try as I knew it is "not going to happen". 

Today was my mom's 80th birthday and I really wanted to spend the day with her. 6,000 miles and a couple of thousands dollars prevented me from doing it. Prevented me from even thinking it is possible. 

Happy birthday ima. I love you from a far land and in my heart I'm always with you.
