Healing and Hope

Embracing life,love, and the miracle of parenthood

By Rohitha LankaPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

I don't remember how many times my mother-in-law said that...

I had this marriage and I didn't do anything wrong. Finally, he said that...

When I got the divorce certificate and returned to the main house, my mother and father welcomed me with love...

Not having a child is a hindrance to love. I thought about the marriage that broke up after three years after five years of love...

I heard that he had arranged his marriage less than a month after the divorce...

Even though my mother said not to worry about it, I cried for a long time...

When everyone tried to force me to get married again, I felt helpless...

I was tormented by how heavy that label was on my chest. He told me...

If we don't have children,

we'll have a child.

I thought he wasn't a narrow-minded person.

Amidst blessings from both sides,

my second marriage also happened...

Strangely,

I went to the doctor's office and found out that I was pregnant...

I couldn't believe my eyes and started crying.

He patted my head with love.

When I was five months pregnant,

I went to the temple.

I cried and asked for a child.

I went to the foot of the Bodhi tree,

where...

I heard that evil voice and held his hand.

I turned around and looked...

My divorced husband,

and his mother-in-law,

and his wife,

there was a beautiful woman...

When he came to the temple,

even though he was evil,

when I said it kindly,

he and his mother-in-law's There were eyes...

We also came to make a vow for this child

His wife

said very kindly,

but her mother-in-law took her away from there...

After praying that

that womb would also give a child

without harm,

I put the pot of water at the Bodhi tree...
