Mother, a human who has sacrificed so much just to take care and raise up her children. I want to start by saying I am not who I am now without my mother. For me, my mother is just like an angel that God has sent to me. She is the light that always shines bright in the dark, the happiness that always cheers me up when I am sad, and also the sugar that can sweeten anything.
Everyone has their own favorite personality and my mom is the best among the best. She has so many great personality traits that I love and admire. It is too hard for me to describe her. Being strong, merciful and responsible are parts of her personality that I love the most.
To my family, she is our backbone. She is willing to do anything just to make sure her family is always in a good and healthy condition. She raised up my siblings and I, full of love, physically and spiritually. She always reminds us to be serious about our spiritual beliefs, and provides us a stable lifestyle.
It has been three years since she left my family and I. It took me a long time to heal and now, every memory that we had built together is still fresh on my mind. Every corner of our house reminds me of her. It is hard for me to move on from her death, but this cannot be the way for me to live my life, because I have to make her proud with all of my achievements. It is not because I do not accept the fact that she is gone; this heart just misses the presence of a mother.
To my mother, I want to say that, everything I am today, I owe to you. To others, appreciate your parents before it is too late because, what God has given to us, He will take back.
