TOUCHING 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?"
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.
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.
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
neighbors 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."
the son got 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.
