My biggest fear

kiromendoza3 — 2024-12-03 09:03:49 UTC

My biggest fear is to be left behind if someone in our family dies first. I hope it was me, and I'm scared that I cannot pay back my mother's sacrifice and hard work and I know being left out is okay, but sometimes you will just wonder why you are being left out. When I was in my elementary days, my mother was already in Cebu to make a living for our future and every three months she came home and stays for just 2 days. I cannot hide the happiness in my heart and after 2 days, she'll come back to Cebu and I always cry, because it will be another long three months. She's been doing that for the past 20 years and I still cannot endure the pain of being left out. I know she's just doing that for my future and when I asked my mom when she would retire she always answered that after my graduation and when she said that, I felt so sad because I know that my mother is getting old, but I know that when I become successful in my life I will make my Mama. Proud and give her the best life for the rest of her life.

Who am I?

What keeps me going

My mother is a great woman. She was the eldest of her 12 siblings and my grandparents are not rich. It's like they can only eat once a day. They were farmers and my mother had only finished elementary school and didn't go to high school, and when my mother became 18 years old, my mother met my father and married, but because of my father's unusual behavior, they broke up. My father was an alcoholic man and a gambler, so that's why they separated, and' so,', my mother stands on her feet to make us go to school and dress us nicely. Even if she doesn't have to herself, she always put us first and my mother once said that "we were born poor, but that doesn't mean that we will die poor we can always find an answer to our questions if you can't find then make one" and she said that there is no "impossible in the name of Jesus" I will never forget these saying from my mother, so that's what makes me keep on going and I know someday I will pay my mother a hundredfold more than my mother's sacrifices and I know in the future I can do it in Jesus name Amen
