My God Daughter-Ronikka Susan George

I was touched when I was asked to be your Godmother,a question to which I gladly answered "Yes."And I'll ask God's blessings for you always,knowing I'm the who's been so truly blessed!

Eventually.......life moved on and i have deviated away from you, with life and responsibilities of my own. But each and every aspect of your life was being conveyed, to me , my darling. But mostly.... your news were stuck and lingered along with birthdays and school reports and things like that.

But your self portrait gives an insight into your own self............................Quote,"I tell them I could give them many adjectives and beautiful words to describe myself, I can go on about how good a leader I am and how well I can communicate with people, but at the same time I know for a fact that I am on a constant journey of discovering myself every single moment that I live.


I believe in a very simple yet extremely powerful things in life. And that is:“ YOUR THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS” I've been brought up with a set of very strong core values which I am extremely proud of and consider as my strengths the rest of the qualities I inherit are from life, and my experiences. What I make of them makes me who I am. "


Your 'detached self' must have been the most attractive aspect of you, never hurting , never interfering, never stamping your opinions under
no circumstances to anyone!,That must have been the pivotal point in your personality that attracts people to you, especially, your friends. Ronika who never lets anyone down with judgemental comments. There is nothing more precious than friendship and this is ever more true,when you are in your 'teens'. Our close friends become our most trusted confidantes. Without them, life could be scary and incredibly boring.


As you approached adolescence.........I looked at you achievements made me even more proud of you.I hope you know its never too late or never too old to be told they are loved. Saying "I love you" once in a while in my mind was something i have never missed.To me it was as important to me as it was, breathing for life. Writing it in a note and sending it across to you was pushing it too much, when it comes to responsibility and moral obligations towards you.Yet I have always provided an alibi by occasional calls which will be a reminder that you can hold on to some memory of me.


You grew up in front me ..............through mails photos occasional emails and nothing much of an input from me except for a few , age old meaningless words passed through phone calls. But in spite all the ridiculing words thrown across to me, to adress me as your ' Godmother'.......I was proud always been,attained the pinnacle of my existence.Your growing up was with a wonderful women........ whom you call 'Mum' but to me she was personification of a women's personality, al success, strength,character and most of all love/care.

Definition of mother.......The funniest thing I have ever heard,yet.......may be 10000 million version of it,"a mother is a person who loves her kids, making sure that they are her main priority, she does work to benefit them, help them to grow into wonderful personalities, encourage them to relay on good values of God, teach them principles of life, protect them from all hazards .God Mother........personifies more or less the same kind of responsibilities, yet from a distance, or may be as far as they are allowed to or could afford to.So I have achieved my ultimate goal of being so satisfied, being a God Mother, in spite of putting no effort of my own,with my name, Nannu, as she was called at home, were cherished and groomed into a perfect... almost perfect creation of womanhood'.Being a social female parent of this God Child offspring of mine, i think i have responsibilities of my own towards her.Some day God will give me chance to full fill my dreams and wish, to spend some time,a very precious time of my own, for ever, for keeps sake.The very own Nannu............
