A Story That Changed Me!


Some days ago, I came across a true story linked by my friend in Facebook. It is written by a mother for her newborn baby girl. The baby girl was diagnosed cancer once she was born. The article is all about what the mother thinks and what she wanted so much to tell her baby girl. All the wording is so touching. In the end, the baby girl died in her mother's arm, which is her last wish (carried by her mother for the very last time). She was 7 months and 3 days old.

I cried when I read the article. I really cried so bad. After reading the article, I had this very strong feeling of seeing my children so bad. Perhaps, I am so scared of losing them. It did somehow change the way I used to think. Yes, it did!

I used to think of giving my children the best especially the best education. Even when they are still in my womb, I already started teaching them. After they were born, I continued educating them in every way. Oh God! I was so so wrong! HEALTHY is the key!

Really! I don't want my children to be genius. I want them to be healthy and happy!

I used to force myself, no matter how tired or how frustrated, I still went on the plan. But now, it is the another way round. Plans still go on but with a more open-heart. I teach them with more patience and love. They love it and eventually, they did learn something which I never expected.

Thank you God for letting me the chance to read the article! If it is not because of the article, I woudn't have changed. I learn how to love my children more, with a more sensible way. And I'm glad that I have the strong will to change.
