My Cousin, Maria :D

 My Uncle lives in Russia, my mother's brother. He is married to a Russian, and I have three cousins,  Dattu, 11, Zahar, 6 and Maria, 4. I got to see Maria and Zahar for the first time, when they came to India a couple of days ago. The first time when I saw Maria, she came running to me and hugged me, I was kind of surprised, because we were meeting for the first time. I found her to be REALLY adorable and we clicked, even though She doesnt know English, and I cant speak a word of Russian properly! I realised that love, affection and family bonds break all linguistic barriers. All I knew was that I was really happy, when she was with me and She got really attached to me too! The first day when I got to spend time with her, I was playing with her for a couple of hours, and time flew. When It was time for me to go home, I had a tough time convincing her that I'd be back soon and that I really had to go. I dint want to though. Maybe I am weird, but I really LOVE spending time with kids, and Maria, sort of stole my heart with her sweetness. All kids are cute, All kids are innocent and fun, but you have to agree that at times, you come across some kids, who nag you SO MUCH that you just dont want to stay anywhere near them. But Maria is not a bit like those kids, She is the sweetest and most caring child I have ever met, and I mean it when I say it. I had my Physics Pre-Board exam today, and She came home with her family yesterday, I couldnt help it, but spend all day with her, I felt happy, and there was no trace of stress, problems, anything. I did bad in Physics today, but I actually don't regret it (no matter how shameless I sound). They say “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.”And the time that I bonded with my cousin sister, was one of the best moments of my life. I really wish she didn't have to go back to Russia, because I already miss her. Its funny how some people bond with you, and affect you so deeply in such a short span of time, maybe we owe it all to the truth and innocence that this kid has when She talks to me, in Russian, expecting me to understand everything that she says, and I may not understand everything that she says, but to feel loved, you don't really have to understand everything. Love is an abstract feeling, like the wind, you cant see it, but you know it's there because you FEEL it.  
Sometimes In life, when you are puzzled about a lot of things, stressed, have hell a lot of problems, one little smile from a baby can give you the happiness, that will make all the problems seem easy to solve. Dont you think so?
