PATHETIC STORY THAT MAKES YOU CRY
My mom only had one eye. I hated her. She was such an embarrassment. She cooked for students and teachers to support the family.
There was this day during elementary school where my mom came to say hello to me, I was so
embarrassed.
How could she do this tome? I ignored her, threw
her a hateful look and ran out.
The next day at school one of my classmates said(akpos),
EEEE,your mom only has one eye! I wanted to bury myself. I also wanted my mom to just disappear.
I confronted her that day and said, If you are only
gonna make me a laughing stock, why dontyou just die? My mom did not respond.
I didnt even stop to think for a second aboutwhat I had said, becauseI was full of anger. I wasoblivious to her feelings.I wanted out of that house, and have nothing to do with her.
So I studied real hard, got a chance to go abroad to study. Then, Igot married. I bought a house of my own. I had kids of my own. I was happy with my life,my kids and the comforts.
Then one day, my
Mother came to visit me. She
had not seen me in years and she didnt even see her grandchildren. When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I yelled at her for coming over uninvited. I screamed at her, How dare you come to my house and scare my children! GET OUT OFHERE! NOW!!! And to this,my mother quietly answered, Oh, I am so sorry.
I may have gotten the wrong address, and
she disappeared out of sight.
One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house. So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip.
After the reunion, I went to the old shack just out ofcuriosity. My neighbors said that she died. I did not shed a single tear. They handed me a letterthat she had wanted me to
have. It Reads:- My dearest son, I think of you all
the time.
I am sorry that I came toyour house and
scared your children. I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion.
But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I am sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were growing up. You see, when you were very little, you gotinto an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldnot stand watching you having to grow up with one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. With all my love
to you.
Your mother. The son burst into tears, but it was too late.
MORAL LESSON:
Never neglect your MOM, Because she is a blessing. One day you will cry when she will be gone. Shower her with kindness.
