I obviously can't ask my parents these questions, but seeing you ask them, and seeing your mom's responses is a kind thing to share with all of us. I may not have my own mom's answers, but I'll gladly accept and heed your mom's advice in her place. Thank you.

    "Don't think far away, far away, how can you catch?" What a lovely way of thinking. I plan to meditate and really absorb her wisdom. I agree that looking past what's right in front of you keeps you from seeing those small beautiful moments. Planning so far in the future creates anxiety and unhappiness. Not to say we should be reckless and financially irresponsible. Just that we should look at the beauty that's right in front of us. Cherish the smiles you pass on to others. Cherish the purest form of love from your children.

The little problems we have today are nothing compared to the problems our parents have faced in the past trying to escape war torn countries.. Makes me feel weak when I worry / complain about stuff as well. The stories of my parents are really what keeps me going. Can't give up after all they've gone through...

She also told me once that she will be the happiest and rest when all of us will be settled in life. I am the youngest and i always felt like i have to work as hard as i can to suceed so that i can somehow repay all she did for me. Finally few months ago i graduated with my PhD and my mom retired! Now i am happy that she can enjoy her life. My mom has the biggest heart I swear she is always trying to give me money and think that I am starving because I moved in another country.

    If everyone had the same happiness your mother has the world would be so much better. I wish everyone had her mindset. God truly put her here to be a piece of sunshine in all she comes across

    Did you have to insert God into this? Seriously, she's a piece of sunshine without people pushing their religion into things. It undermines the whole compliment.

    Kiru Did you really have to comment on this? Seriously, ppl should stop judging others on their own beliefs. We all believe in something or not, that doesn't mean should all hate each other for it. The point is not to criticize and judge others. You're comment undermines this compliment. Sorry for lashing out at you but I'm sure this person wasn't intending to push their beliefs on you. LET US ALL SPREAD POSITIVITY. I know this comment is not positive either & i apologize but I thought it was rude that you posted that when this person had nothing bad to say.

    "Don't think far away, far away, how you catch? You catch close." That has so much wisdom. Your mom is truly inspiration. Thank you! Now that I still have the chance, I want to know more about my parents. I might learn a thing or two.
