RE: MindfulMonday: "Let us not abandon our parents, to them we owe LIFE!"
I am one of those children that abandoned my parents to my younger sister care I guess. The only thing I'm able to do for them is building them a house. I can't afford giving them monthly money for I myself barely have enough for my family.
I have the choice to libe with them but I can't forget all the words my father said to me. It hurt me a lot. He is not bad, he is a good father but I can't bare living in a house with him. I don't hate him but he is never there to jear my feelings when I'm small and it's hard to let him know what I felt nowadays. It felt awkward.
My mum is stroke and I don't want her to know how my life goes. I prefer to live away from them and just get to know about them from my sister.
I treat everyone the same, senior or young. As long as they don't put themselves in negative thoughts all the time, I can live with them but if they do... It's better if I'm away for I know myself as a rude person without intentions. I meant I will always question about things like...
Why do you always feel that you are a poor man, aren't you grateful that you at least have a home, not starving and at least have spare money from your pension? What I said to my father.
When my mom try to stab herself with a kitchen knife, I slap her and scold her about her action. I even punch my father for trying to stop me. What if my mom stab herself that day? What will happen?
Well, I'm that kind of person. If I think that my parents are thinking wrongly and doing stupid things in my opinion I will be angry and rude in my words to them. It hurt to love someone so much that they themselves are not grateful for a life they have.
They are the one that taught me about faith in God and miracles He do but they themselves didn't show it to me as they've said and teach me.
Well, my mother in law is a different stories. Let's just leave our story until here. 😅
Not to criticize your story, just want to share with you my point of view. To tell you the truth, I too sometimes wondering about why elderly, my patients have no visitors in the hospital. I would love to hear their stories from both side parents and children. 🥰
Thank you. I enjoys reading your story.
There are always different stories, or at least that's what I think, because just as there are exceptional and good parents, there are parents that I wonder why they had children, I can say that there is a little bit of everything, I have seen parents that also ask me why they don't get struck by lightning? (yes, I usually have that kind of thought when I see injustice) their indolence with their children, their mistreatment and selfishness, take them to anyone who approaches them. It's just that I don't talk about those parents here.
We better not talk about that kind of parents here 😅 Well, they are still parents. In my thoughts they still deserve something good in returns no matter what.
Thank you for spending your time reading a piece of my heart.
Thanks to you for taking the time to read me and above all express your feelings, this is very valuable to me!
Your welcome. I enjoys good writing.
