Question:

Reflection 2...................?

This story has caught me reflecting for a while... Hope it brings some form of motivation or inspiration in some humble ways to many of us :)

I was typing some reports at work when someone approached me... I was already in a dreamy and sleepy state (hehee..) and so I wasn't ready for any long talks...

Though I have heard of many common stories (...such as the ones that I am going to share later...), it didn't occur to me how real and heart-wrenching it can be for a heart-broken mother...

Her voice quiver... Her tears flow from her puffy red eyes... This is a sad grievance from a single mother, who has been taking 2 tedious full-time jobs for the past 15 years, in order to support her child to study overseas. Now she is overly heart-broken with her child's disrespect and lack of appreciation for her, even more with the child's ignorance to support her own mother although she is already working...

..... I shared this story with my beloved mum when I reached home this evening... Don't know why but it has made me even more appreciative of both my parents... I know they are really old and it would be just a matter of time when my dad is unable to work anymore due to old age...

Just like in many of my prayers before I sleep each night, I would always ask from God to provide good health and longevity to both my parents.. They really mean the world to me.. and this is best I could ever 'give' them as a daughter even though I can't afford anything more than my humble salary... Not surprising, I have never asked from God to give me good health and longevity... I think I am fine if I don't last that long as my parents... If it's time to go, I would...

*I love you, mum*

*I love you, dad*

Peace,
