Essence

My dear Amma,

While watching TV today, a stray thought struck me about the diffence in taste between my love and me. Sometimes that has caused me niggling doubts about our compatibilty or lack of it.

I started to wonder though. Have I created a bunch of likes and dislikes and labels and think that is who I am? Do i feel that about my love too? That seems really stupid. I could suddenly sense that what is within, the essence, is the same for us all. And that essence is You. We are each wrapped in diffently coloured and designed wrapping paper, but what is within is the same. So it seems a little silly to judge and qualify and choose depending on nothing more than the most appealing patterns.Quite a thought!

With all my love and gratitude, dear Amma,

From your loving daughter,

Vidya
