Story Of A MOTHER’s Love
After having a lot of success in his career a young man felt an urge
to repay back to his mother for all that she had done for him.
So he asked her, “Mom, what can I give you? What can I do for you? I sincerely want to repay you for all the sacrifices you have made for me and for all the love you have showered upon me.
Mother looked surprised and said, “Why do you think about it. It was
my duty so I did it, you don’t have to repay me. Even if you want to,
there is no way a man can ever repay his mother.
Despite her continuous refusal to ask for anything, he continued to
persist. To put an end to the discussion, she said, “All right. If you
must, then tonight you sleep on my bed, with me, just as you used to
when you were a baby. He said, That’s a strange thing to ask for, but if
it pleases you, I will. As soon as he fell asleep, the mother got up
and brought a bucket of water.
She poured a mug full of water on his side. Feeling disturbed by the
wetness under him, in his sleep he moved away to the other side of the
bed. As he settled down, his mother poured another mug of water on the
other side. In his slumber he tried to findspace towards the foot post
of the bed. Sometime later he woke up feeling that this part of the bed
too was damp.
He got up and saw his mother,with the mug in her hand. He asked
angrily, “What are you doing mother? Why don’t you let me sleep? How do
you expect me to sleep on a wet bed? Mother said, I slept with you, when
you wet the bedin the night. I changed your clothes and moved you to
the dry part of the bed, while I slept on the wet side. You wanted to
repay me. Can you sleep here even for one night with me on a damp bed?
If you can, I’ll take it that you have repaid me. Of all the debts in
the world, the one that can never be repaid is the one you owe to your
MOTHER. You can never repay the love,care and time your mother gave to
bring you up.

“it’s funny how we forget that if not for that great, loving and kind
mum of ours, we would prolly be dead by now. So many sacrifices she went
through just to make us happy. Someday, somehow, you’d certainly come
to terms with it. So if you’ve still got that great woman beside you,
always and i mean always let her/make her know she would always be loved
and cherished by you cos you owe her that much”. #Bless.
