It was another morning, I opened my eyes and I was happy, happy to be home again, in my own country, close to my family, what a sense of peace... I didn't have this sense of belonging and peace here, even before my migration.
When I open my eyes and see first of all my beautiful yard, lush garden, and the influx of sparrows, which flock down among the branches of the trees, and when they see everywhere safe and quiet, they jump into the garden and after that on the mosaics, looking for a piece of food, they don't know that I monitored their every move from behind the window.
I try to get my body out of bed, first of all I go to the kitchen, and I put the kettle on the gas, I love the whistling of the kettle in the first moments of the morning, it makes me feel relaxed.
I remember to call my dad, the food I made for him a few days ago must have been finished by now and he has no food today. I call him, his sleepy voice comes from behind the phone. I tell him oh sorry I woke you up, he says I woke up, now I'm preparing my breakfast.
I tell him that I am waiting you for lunch today, he says thank you, but I am making something for myself, after all the insistence, he finally accepted, come to us.
Me and my husband drink our morning tea, he goes to his classes, I also go to my kitchen to prepare lunch, I need things for lunch, I get dressed and I go shopping.
Now in my own country, I feel calm when I go shopping, people who walk behind me, I understand what they are saying, I smile at the children and shoot their balls at them.
I go into the green grocery and tell the seller, which lemon and orange are good for juicing, and he guides me, when I go out, I thank him.
Then I go to the grocery store to buy beans and spices, an old man says I went to the mountains at 3 in the morning until I arrived at the shop at 9 o'clock. He says that at 3 in the morning, when we were going to the mountain, two women were returning from the mountain. I also say, what kind of brave and courageous women they are, congratulations to them. He also confirms.
In the land of exile I could never even communicate with the sellers, and that bothered me, now I am retaliating for those days. π€
I came out of the store, and walked towards the house in the autumn midday sun, the sun was caressing my skin, and I was enjoying the tranquility I felt at this moment.
I went home and did the lunch work, until my father came around noon, My father sat down, I asked him what news did you have, he said the news that your mother is coming tomorrow, her plane was said to be late and I have to go to the airport later to follow her, all the news passed around my mother. While I knew all this news myself. π
I asked my husband to put on the funny TV show we watch every day for my father, the three of us sat down and had a hot homemade lunch. And I enjoyed my dad laughing while eating and watching that TV show... May be life is these simple moments spent with and for family...
Finally, thank you very much to my dear supporters, who are always by my side, they are the ones who always give me hope and motivation, I know them as my family, you can look at their articles, you will certainly not miss anything. Thank you, dear friends and readers, for always supporting me and empowering me with your kind comments. God bless you.
