Happy Birthday Oppol! Sonia Venugopal
From the moment I entered this world, you’ve been there to love me unconditionally. You were and still are an answer to the prayer I was not wise enough to pray. You’re the shoulder I always freely lean on. I can’t seem to envision how my life would have turned out if you were’nt a part of it. Through all the good and bad, laughter, heartbreaks, ups and downs, you have always been there.
When I was too blind to see and decide any better, you were there guiding me on every step of the way.
When Mommy couldn’t always be there to take care of us, you stepped up and became my second Mom #superhero . You are just too perfect for your age 🙂
Even at your lowest, you cared so much to check upon me. I don’t remember a time when I needed you and you weren’t there. I am truly blessed to have a sister like you who has become my second mother.
Often, we don’t realise the difference we can make in other people’s’ lives. I know for a fact that you don’t realise how many times you being there has stopped me from killing myself. I just want you to know while you are still alive and kicking that I appreciate you and I love the person you have helped me become.
You’ve taught me that just because I seem to be reaching the end of the rope doesn’t mean I should let go but rather I should tie a knot and push through the rope up again.
Without the rain, there would be no rainbow; I am learning to fight for my dreams and to live my life to the fullest potential, and not let the wind derail me. All thanks to you!
You are the parent I hope to become for my children one day. One who will never back down until she is able to provide a better future for her child. You have gone through great lengths, so hard even when no one realises your worth and you did just for my niece #supermom .
On your birthday, I wish you more sunshine than rain, more laughter than sadness and above all, God’s arm that is not too short to save you always and his ear that is not too dull to listen to your prayers every time.
Thank you for always being there and inspiring me in every step of my life. For me you’ve donned many hats - in addition to that of a sister’s, a mother, father, best friend, teacher and much more. I completely ignore the line that you trouble me a lot, but that’s because somewhere down the line, I like it!
While all our childhood, I took you for granted (and I still do), and as I grow older, I gradually realise that I am the luckiest person in the whole wide world when it comes to having an older sister!
Thank you for being honest and even blunt when there was no other way. They are your honest opinions that have saved me from being a fashion disaster and a mean person in general.
Thank you and wish you many more happy returns of the the day!
