A Not So Touching Story on a Mother's Day

there was a mother
whose husband was afar
who gave her all to their only son
but the latter never bothered
whatever good she did
as long as she would give
the money he needed
to buy what he desired…

this said mother
was longing for her son’s love and respect
but to no avail
coz her son never cared
about how his mother cared…

so the mother tried to express her motherly affection
to her nephews and nieces
with the hope that one day
her son would realize
to love her his mother…

then came the Mother’s Day
she never expected to hear anything good from her son
so she just went to Church and prayed
that her son would one day be at least nice to her…

when she returned home,
she saw her son sleeping
as he was already drunk that early evening
with all these, she could do nothing…

but one thing caught her attention
she saw a card on their table
in front of which was a greeting
a greeting of a Happy Mother’s Day
so she opened the said card
and she cried when she read its dedication
it was all a message of love for a mother like her
it was all a message of appreciation and affirmation for all the good she did
and at its end it was signed…
…. by her nephews and nieces
who remembered her on that day

unlike her only son who never cared about her…
