Me and Mom ages ago. |
My life is really complicated. I don't live with my Mom because she is based in Saudi Arabia together with my step dad and two half brothers. So I guess by now you know why I crave so much for motherly love. Yes we fight sometimes and we have misunderstandings, but after all is said and done she would still be my mother no matter what. You would probably think that the distance between us hinders our love for each other, but no, absence really do makes the heart grow fonder.
But if God would let me live my life all over again, I would chose to be with her even if means that we live on an empty pocket. I would rather be famished with my Mom than to live in luxury alone. Sometimes I get envious whenever I see other people with their Mom and bonding. I get flushed with envy whenever my classmates are with their parents whenever there's an activity at school. Those times make wish my Mom was just inches away. But somehow I'm used to those feelings. I have memories to hold on to, memories to treasure. Memories that puts me to sleep with a smile on my face. I am contented with just the memories me and my Mom shared. If I win the lottery tomorrow, the best moment in my life will still always be the one with my Mom.
How about you? What is your best moment so far? Share it with us!
