Schooling and working killsss

Had simple fare at Hilltop's Indonesian restaurant during the weekend, glad to say, my family has or is beginning to cut down on buffets because the rate we eat, it is seriously freaky. Always happy to spend family time over a simple dinner where we can all share and talk :) Enjoyed it pretty much, because its always a special time whereby no matter how tired, upset or distraught we feel, things seem to work out when we all spend time in fellowship. Even more so, its Mothers' day and i am so grateful to my mummy who has brought me up over the years, and so many times i have disappointed her or threw tantrums but she never gave up on loving me.

Pastor Moses sermon last week was fantastic, he shared many stories about a mother's great love which i am going to share two.

First one, is illustrated in this comic found on someone's tumblr.

The main thing was that this child and mother were found in an earthquake and the mum was dead but under her, her child was still sleeping sweetly and she typed a message in her phone, mainly saying, "My precious and sweet child, if you can survive,always remember that i love you." (in more exact terms).

I never fail to tear when i read this, because it speaks so much about the mum's love for her child that even on her deathbed, she thinks of her child.

The second one is about this tradition in a village where you abandon your parents who are old and leave them in a forest, and there was this son who brought his mother into the woods to abandon her as she was getting on in age but along the path, she kept dropping twigs. And the son was exasperated, and asked her"Are you doing this so that you can find your way back?"

But her answer simply was, "No my son, I was worried that you might lose your way on the journey back".

Despite the mother knowing that her son was going to abandon her, she still loved him and showed a exceptional demonstration of perfect love.

I am going to end my post here, so please do start appreciating your mothers!
