Mira Matar

Our first point of contact today, was whilst I was on route back. Another virtual connect. The sunshine in your eyes, was matched by the energy I was received with, upon arrival a few hours later. Thank you to yourself and mum for the rays. Wishing you and your sister that same energy and joy, from the family relationships in your life. 💕💕💕

We didn't get to have our daily ritual today. I was, and am, abroad. Unsure at how a virtual interaction was to go, Your reaction was beyond wonderful. Not only was the gleeful energy beaming out, You sweetly sang out "Papa, papa.." Ditto that experience later in the day. Ever wondered what an angel looks like? You and your sister have been blessing from the very days that you were born. Wishing you both the same remarkable level of joy and meaning that you have imparted; Manifest in your lives! 💕💕💕

You are still not 100%. And yet you remained radiant. Quite the phenomenon. Captured just after waking up.. Energy emanated from you. Indoor sunshine beamed out from you. May you and your sister, always find within yourselves, the energy and will.. to smile and shine. 💕💕💕

We all feel unwell at times sweetheart. Last night you had a rough one; due to a blocked nose. You were dressed in fighting form this morning; your immune system was not taking this lying down. Overcoming health issues makes you stronger sweetheart. Your immune system becomes more powerful. Becoming more powerful is a process, and not simply a result. As with any process, you can choose your attitude throughout. You proved that this early evening.. and I loved it! Unwell, but connecting.. Unwell, but responding.. Unwell, but shining.. Hoping that you and your sister always remember, that life circumstances are not always within our control, but the attitude you have when facing with (or dealing with) them IS within our control. Be your own sources of peace, when things aren't easy. Know that I am always here for you both too. 💕💕💕

It's spring. You'd be hard pressed to believe that though, given this morning's weather. Queensland used to run the advert: "beautiful one day, perfect the next". I was reminded of it by the past 48 hours here. Yesterday, or "one day", was +21 (degrees Celcius). Today, or "the next", was -2 in the morning.  As per every morning & all conditions, we found beauty & upside in that which poured down; and gratitude ensued. These were spotted later in the day. There is beauty in every state of being. There is always something to appreciate, whether it rains or whether it shines. Hoping that you and your sister always find the beauty. Hoping you both realise that you have the ability to do just that; at any given second, of any given day, throughout your lives. 💕💕💕 PS: I shared the above video in a family group chat this morning. Your Uncle Walid quipped back with a quote from Anne of Green Gables: "Snow in April is abominable" ..

When you returned,  from some morning time outdoors with Mum, you were accessorized with a wreath. It was a quirky coincidence, given that back in Australia today, ANZAC Day was commemorated. May you and your sister only see times of peace in your lives. May you both learn how to argue, and to resolve conflict, fairly & wisely. May you both grow knowing that you are loved, without conditions attached. 💕💕💕

Part of the way in which we fortify our bodies, is via healthy food intake. It's a bonus when the food is delicious! The kiwi indulgence occurred directly after your lunch nap. I was lucky enough to be around. The Peruvian grape intake was a half hour before bedtime. (what a world we live in!.. facilitating such gustatory opportunities!..) Earlier in the afternoon.. Day dreaming: Connecting: May you and your sister love yourselves,  and love each other, such that you choose,  to personally engage in,  and to promote with one another,  healthy living habits. 💕💕💕

The outdoors will become more and more of a feature,  over the coming months. We had the loveliest day of the year thus far. Captured with Mum, with the shadow of a fence 'tattooed' on to you The indoor 'fencing in' due to cold, ought to not be an issue soon. Sunsets are even more magical now.. May the mornings, the evenings, and the days, Provide moments of warmth and beauty, To you and your sister. 💕💕💕

You have very specific reactions to two things: animals and little children. You begin to make noises & try to jump out of adult grasps. Even news that you were about to step outside this morning, and perhaps the sense of what was to follow, led to a magical reaction. Once outside, you scanned & focused, until you saw what you wanted. Then the noises, and the activity began. This time it was birds. Hoping that you and your sister will always feel unity,  with other inhabitants of the earth we live on;  and live off. 💕💕💕

Your family is a testament to unity. Part of your family carries Christian heritage; and recently celebrated Easter. Part of your family carries Muslim heritage; and today celebrated Eid. The blessed month of Ramadan instils appreciation for all that we have in life. By sacrificing daily, what one usually takes for granted, one's reminded of their good fortune; down to even the basics of food and water. In breaking your pre-lunchtime 'fast' today, you tried green grapes for the first time ever. Your eye was on the prize from the moment I began peeling off the skin. You savoured the flavour and texture, as though we were at a Michelin star restaurant. (If only we adults were so easy to please 😊) The celebration involved more, and that more, was away from the cameras. May you and your sister always feel closeness. Closeness to one another, and closeness to a wider meaning. May you both choose the path that emboldens you, creates in you resilience, and provides you with inner

Part of staying healthy is checking your status. We are blessed to have doctors that do just that. Your gaze.. Reaching out.. Being checked.. Results: all good. Grateful for your health. Wishing you and your sister ongoing health. To you and your sister: Learn your you. Be your be. Create your space. At a minimum, it's protection against some psychosomatic problems. 💕💕💕 PS - Today was your cousin Aaliyah's birthday! Happy Birthday! Looking forward to the time when you and your sister will get the chance to spend time together with her (& with all of the rest of your wider family)

Whilst asleep at night, the eating stops. Upon waking we break our fasts. Breakfasts have become more joyful.. More curious.. More focused.. I love that it'd break fast; and yet time slows down. Looking forward to many more shared meals and moments, with both you and your sister. Life is our life's main course. Meals are always made better, when they are shared with loved ones. 💕💕💕

Every single day that we get to be alive, is a priceless treasure. The days since your arrival, accumulated to 8 months today! Gratitude for your and your sister's presence, casts brightness over each day. The morning sky, already awake whilst you still slept,  hinted to the beauty ahead of us today. ..from one side of the balcony ..from the other side ..the sounds after you woke up May laughter in the manner heard today, Echo in yours and your sister's hearts. May it serve as a source of strength, and bonding, for you both, in life. 💕💕💕

There is macro changes going on in the world right now that are similar to magic, Things which were not long ago considered impossible, And things living only in the zone of imagination. On the micro level,  there is also magic. Magic in the form of your daily transformation. New expressions. New explorations. I often carry you when I walk now. Physically, it has become a heavier experience. Emotionally, it's become closer to a form of levitation. You and your sister have gifted me with the opportunity to step into another space, and to feel emotions that were otherwise hidden; unknown, untold, & in plain view. I am eternally grateful to you and your sister..  ..for the times that have been, ..for the times that are, & ..for the times that are yet to come. 💕💕💕

In the English speaking world, kids grow up to the tune: "Mary had a little lamb". We came up with our own version today: "Mira has a little lamb!" The maternal family came together today; to celebrate Orthodox Easter Sunday. Sharing of family energy is a unique gift in life. This was a lesson imparted as I was growing up. Plus there was a qualification: "Especially grouped around a table"! And united enjoying "delicious"! Watching your delightful interactions with Mum was in itself a delight for me! Ditto your time with your maternal grandma: May you and your sister, always feel unconditional love in your lives. Consider a given from this end. 💕💕💕
