On this day 26 years ago, a little baby girl was born, named Dila Rahma Putri.
Her dad named her Dila after a young girl whom he met a few years before. He said that the young girl was really nice, polite, and religious. The rest of the name was made by him. So he said that the meaning of her full name was "You were born as a daughter who brings grace" with also the hope she would be nice, polite, and religious as well. What a beautiful name he gave.
Her mom and dad raised her very well. She was thought to be independent, caring, honest, and grateful. They gave her so many values in life that she applied in her daily life. So for her, they were her biggest influencers in life.
She grew up as an independent being, she was brave and strong. Her journey in life brings he to this phase. Especially after her dad passed away. She at first felt that she was forced to be mature earlier because she had to. But she was grateful for that, hoping that she could help her family through some hard times, she could influence some good things for her siblings, and be her mom's companion in discussing many things, such as family needs, and problems.
Aside from that, she was always wondering about how her parents would feel seeing their little girl become the woman she is today. Especially for her dad, would he be proud? Would he praise her? Or would he be mad and advise her because he felt something still went wrong?
Because back in the day, he always appreciates every little achievement that she gets. He would smile his teeth so wide and praise her, or even ask her to do a high-five. But when something was wrong, he would be the first person to advise her even sometimes she would be scared when her dad went mad at her. But from all that, merely thinking about her memories with her dad always makes her happy.
For her mom, she always hopes that she will be able to help her mom go through good and bad times. She hopes her mom feels proud and happy for what she did today. Even her mom didn't really express her feelings explicitly, but lowkey her mom expressed that she was grateful to see her daughter as she is right now. Her mom said that she never missed a day without praying for the best for all her children. Her mom is always her number 1 supporter for every good thing that she does. She believed that all the things she have achieved now were because of her mom's-non stop-prayer.
And now she had turned 26 years old, such a grown-up woman. All the things that she wished for on her birthday were to be able to spend a long time with her mom and siblings, to be her better self (because there were so many things that she needed to work out), to be able to reach her dreams (she got a lot!), to meet the future partner of her dreams, to create more wonderful memories in life, and lastly to make her parents proud however it is.
So on this special day, I hope you will get the best in your life dear Dila. Just know that you've done your best, and you don't need to worry about people's opinions. Because those who love you will see values in you, and those who are not, will not affect your life so much. And don't be sad because you're surrounded by the best people who love you. Cheer up! We need to work harder for all the things we want to achieve in lifeπͺπ»
In case no one has told you, I'm so proud of who you have become, promise to keep being this full-of-excitement Dila, okay? Happy birthday!π€π
love, your inner self
