This body created magic.
This body sustained life.
I carry the symbol of the process upon me so that I never
forget how amazing I am.
She grew here.
With me.
We were one.
Now when she is away from me / my body; I can look down
and smile. I will wear these signs as badge of honour and pride. A reminder
that I am, as all women are, amazing.
Motherhood is not something to be forgotten or covered. I
will not place my idea of beauty on an unmarked form. Instead i will see what
is actually there.
I see the beauty, strength,, commitment, determination
and love that each of these marks represents.
I look down to the marks and then look up to see her and
find myself blessed and content in all respects. I have everything that I
wanted and I have the best of that it in the whole wide world.
IVY RISHI (#IvyBaby) is the one around which my world
moves now. These two words have the depth more than any ocean can ever have;
at least for me.
IVY + RISHI = TANU’S EXISTENCE
