Reden's 6th Birthday Offering |
It has been exactly 841 days, or 2 years, 3 months and 19 days, since we have been away from our two beloved children.
Perhaps I don't want to recall that Thursday morning of 20 April 2023, when we had to leave them still sleeping in their beds. Since then, we have been living in two different worlds, counting each day, hoping time passes quickly and our reunion happens like a magical moment.
Today, we celebrate our son’s 5th birthday — from afar, through video calls and virtual hugs.
We send him our warmest wishes and endless prayers for his good health, his happiness and a life filled with love and meaning. May all his dreams come true, and may he always be guided by kindness and strength.
To honour his 5th birthday, we offer three simple, symbolic gifts;
A "Butter Lamp" ( in the hope that he will one day shine light upon the world with his goodness, warmth and wisdom.
A "Bhutanese Incense Stick" (wishing that he may carry the fragrance from the Himalayas within him, spreading love and calm wherever he goes).
A "Red Daisy" (hoping he will be admired not only for his appearance but for his kind heart and that he may be loved by all for who he truly is)
With these humble offerings, we don't just wish him good health but also we wish him to grow into a compassionate, intelligent and humble human being, who will one day serve his country with highest integrity, pure passion and utmost loyalty.
