Biking

Mum's youngest sisters came today. At one moment, a picture of mum biking in the woods flashed across the screen.

"Your mum loved to bike! She would bike to school, bike everywhere! When she was in university, she asked for a bike to be sent to her. She would bike around campus all the time!" My aunt was smiling while she reminisced mum's biking habits. A few moments later, there was another picture of her on a bike, when she biked with me on a trip a few year back, to the eastern part of the island.

I too smiled. I now know more about mum, even though she is gone. I know now where I get my biking interest from, and why every time I bike I feel so happy and so free...
