"Yes!" - She said.
She was born so tiny. Then she spoke, walked and grew. Now she's a beautiful young lady.
"Yes! I do!" - She said when asked, "Do you want to marry this man?"
Tears flowed from my eyes without being called for! I was startled and worried. What's happening?! Am I sad or happy?! Am I crying in anguish just as mothers do in soap operas because my child is leaving home? Or is it happiness?! Am I happy that she found love and now has her own family?!
Why are tears flowing from my eyes? At that moment I realized that my world is returning back in time before she was born. One cycle of my life was completed! And again I'm at the beginning - now in another game, in another role with other responsibilities. Can I handle them? Can she...?
"Yes!" - I said to myself and my tears disappeared. Smile brightened my face!
