When did I call my mom to ask after her…??
My mom always worries about me and
misses me. She is always waiting for me.
But how about me? I often forget her
under the excuse that I’m busy.
Likewise, I often forget Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother‘s love & sacrifice for me.
Christ Ahnsahnghong sacrified for our salvation. And God the Mother always prays that we’ll come back to Heavenly Father and Mother.
I’ll introduce a good essay about it….
Forgetting at an instant
For a long time, my mom all alone raised us; four daughters.
Looking back
at those years, I don’t know how she managed to raise us up all by herself.
I
cannot even conceive the idea of raising four children all by myself, but I
guess it was all possible for her because she was my mom.
Few years ago, my mom had a big surgery.
Though she had to rest, because
of the wretched circumstances, she just had to work strenuously.
Though we
all grew up and became adults, since we were busy, we didn’t know or forgot how
strenuous it was for her.
When mom comes home from work, she starts doing the
housework right away.
After ten, she comes to my room and talks about her daily routine.
She
isn’t a talk-active person, but these days she frequently stops by and talks to
me a lot.
I really wanted to be nice to her, but I was exhausted. So I tend
to listen to her vacantly.
Seeing how I reacted, she would quickly end her
conversation and leave my room.
When this happens, I feel sorry for her.
I
always make a resolution that I wouldn’t repeat this mistake again, but it
happens to me all the time.
One day, seeing her leaving my room, her
shoulders seemed so small.
When I and my sisters were young, she didn’t have
a moment to talk with us.
That is why we always went to her to talk with
her.
Whenever we did, she never showed how tired she was.
She always
listened to all what we have said, but I didn’t.
Few days ago, my mom said that she had pain in her arms and legs.
I just
told her to “go to the hospital,” and when she repeatedly said that every day, I
started to ignore.
When I started to think lying down my bed, it reminded me
that my mom had a surgery for cancer.
I forgot that she wasn’t a healthy
person at all.
I felt ashamed that I just told her to go to the
hospital.
During break time in my working place, I started to search for good
medicine and food for my mom.
Thinking that I simply just needed to turn on
the computer and type some words, I felt so sorry.
The reason how I could
grow up without any trouble was because of my mom’s sacrifice.
And I…
I always forgot about her when I turned my back, went to work, and while I
was having a hard time.
At this moment, Heavenly Mother is also next to me,
praying for me continuously every day, every second.
But I always
forgot.
Just because of the world that I am living in, because I was busy,
because I was exhausted…
I just forgot about Her.
About Heavenly Mother who came down to this earth, who is
sacrificing for me.
I truly want to be a filial daughter for my mom and to my
Heavenly Mother.
I want to be a filial
daughter who gives joy, happiness, and smiles.
I want to be a filial daughter who gives joy, happiness, and smiles.
