Mother and Child

My favorite spot at the Burjumun Mall is definitely the area decked with red and black designer sofa sets. You could take a breather after u have burst all your major credit cards on branded stuff. Above u, you could marvel at the blue Zodiac Dome..it might ease your headache a bit, I guess. You could also enjoy watching beautiful emirati children having  a ball..running up and down..the spiral stairway.

I remember an interesting episode that happened not too long ago. A little emirati boy was running all over the place with his group of friends. Their laughter echoed the entire place. Then, in a surreal moment..a group of emirati ladies..in their beautiful embroidered abayas (traditional dress) with shining beads at the helm levels and sleeves ends..and the shaylas (traditional veil) as well..descended down the spiral stairway. Instantaneously, the boy stopped his game and rushed towards them...AND instinctively, hugged one particular veiled woman. There were 7 of them..all veiled..yet he was able to recognise the mother! I smiled...the bond between a mother and a child..no barriers could separate them. It must be universal.
