"There's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and haertbreaking. Behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begins."- Mitch Albom "For one more day"
This was the latest book I read, completed this afternoon. I believe it's Mitch Albom's latest book. Those some what philosophical books, similar to "Tuesdays with Morrie" and the "Five people you meet in heaven".
I like all three books, probably cause it brings out nicely, the feelings you felt, with words, you never knew how to get it out of your heart. Then you would go "yah...that's how i felt...". They really trigger your thoughts well and makes you reflect.
All three books portray a tinge of nostalgic feelings of looking back on stuff you lost and regret upon..which probably is the reason why I love them. They can really bring out this sadness, a happiness that was supposed to be there. Haha...I love this kind of sad, nostalgic and touching melancholic feeling...
This particular one was about his regret towards his mother, who made many sacrifices for him, yet he disappointed her times and again. Still she did not blame her...the greatness of a mother. Then he got a chance to spoke to his mother's spirit once again to learn the truth, the regrets and seek forgiveness.
Well it happens all the time, sometimes I do neglect my mom for her effort. We all do, I am sure. We all know that we still love our mom and our mom love us. But it matters more if we really can reflect on ourselves and behaviours to show what we recognise and make it reality. Give your mom a hug if you haven done your so for a long time.
Happy Birthday Mom.
