Thoughts on Mother's Day

  BLOG    |      2024-05-14 11:18:14

Before I knew Mother's Day, it had already passed two days, and I hadn't noticed it yet. My son didn’t wish me a happy Mother’s Day, and I forgot to wish my own mother a happy Mother’s Day. Hehe! I don’t know why, but now, when I think about it, I actually cannot stop laughing.

 

In the past two days, my heart has been drawn away by a new TV series I watched recently, "My Altay". The TV series is adapted so good that I am eager to read the original novel. This TV series is adapted from Li Juan's essay collection "My Altay". After watching the TV series and the essay collection, I discovered that there are really not many places where the two are related.

 

All the characters presented in the TV series are very full. They all have their own lives. They are flesh and blood. They are real. They are direct to my soul. Also, the natural scenery of Altay is very beautiful, which is very, very intoxicating to me, making me want to go and ride on that prairie right away.

 

There are two sentences in it that impressed me deeply: Love, live, and get hurt; no matter how bumpy life is, you must live it shiningly. Yes, isn't that what life is like? Isn't that what living is like?

 

Having said that, I really admire Li Wenxiu's mother Zhang Fengxia in it. This mother is hard-working, brave, and dares to love and hate. No matter how hard her life is, she can still enjoy it. She has the courage to face the bleak life and can deal with any problems calmly.

 

I am also a mother. Let me ask myself, if my life is Zhang Fengxia's life, can I be like her? The answer is definitely no. Ever since my son was born, I thought he was stupid. My son cant learn some basic things which can be learned by other children quickly and his reaction is slow. Whats the matter! I feel like I want to cry when I say it. But this does not mean that he is useless and has no merits at all.

 

He loves me and will be sad when he can't find me. Sometimes he shares good things with me, and promises to treat me to a barbecue, hot pot, skewers, and buy me bags when he grows up and earns money. No matter whether these wishes can be realized in the end, at least when he told me this, I still felt sweet in my heart. I and his father don’t have high requirements for his grades, and we can say that we don’t have any requirements. But when he sees others scoring more than 90 points, he goes home and gives me a picture, saying that he will work hard next time and want to achieve that point as well. Now that I think about it, it's still great. He would also comfort me with his childish words when I seemed unhappy. In addition, his mentality is also super good. I kept telling his father that he would definitely not be among the children suffering from depression in the future. So, is this also an advantage?

 

Looking back again, look at my mother. My mother comes from a rural area. She is very hardworking, kind, motivated, and smart. Although she was born poor, she worked hard to make progress and eventually bought a house in the provincial capital city to settle down. And since I was young, no matter what novel ideas I had, she was willing to let me try as much as possible within her ability. It is the support she gave me that made me who I am today.

 

I will also want to be like my mother and give my child the greatest support I can provide so that he can fly freely in this world and become the best he can be. Finally, I want to say in my heart: "Dear Mom, Happy Mother's Day!".

 

I also wish that all mothers in the world can live their own lives and be happy!
