Hello
friends...
Today, I would like to share
a story titled " MY MOM ONLY HAD ONE EYE". So, this is the story...
***************************************************************
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 one day during
elementary school where my mom came to say hello to me. I was so embarrassed.
How could she do this to me? I ignored
her, threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school one of my
classmates said, ‘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’re only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don’t you just die?’
you should die!
My mom did not respond… I didn’t even stop
to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger. I was
oblivious 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, I got 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 hadn’t seen me in years
and she didn’t even meet her grandchildren.
I've got married and had kids...=)
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 OF HERE!
NOW!!!’
And to this, my mother quietly answered, ‘Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have
gotten the wrong address,’ and she disappeared out of sight.
i'm so sorry dear.......
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 of curiosity. My
neighbours said that she died. I did not shed a single tear. They handed me a
letter that she had wanted me to have.
‘My
dearest son,
I
think of you all the time. I’m sorry that I came to your 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’m sorry that I was a constant
embarrassment to you when you were growing up.
You see……..when you were very little, you
got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t 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.’
