Regretable things
Ever you ever did or said something that you regret later on? Nope, it's not the exams that i'm mentioning. But something that I feel very important.
Last Tuesday, while answering one of the questions that my mom asked me, I had unintentionally hurt her... well, I dont feel that there was anything wrong with my answer. Logically sound, as well as it's the most probable answer considering all the via options. But later on, my brother pulled me aside and talked to me (great to have a brother who is so mature) and asked me, "What have you said?? it's not the answer that you are in the wrong, but it is the tone and manner that you said... can't you say it more tactfully?"
I knew I was in the wrong. My mom almost cried. Even in the morning the next day, my mom did not say anything to me before I went to school. What hurts me even more is this Sunday is supposedly Mother's day. I recalled the days where my mom sacrificed a lot when i was still a baby, a toddler, in primary school and so on and so forth. Mother's love, great isn't it?
Later on Wednesday evening, I went to buy my mom some bar kwah to appease her. But it the evening, thank God that she felt better, and that we can talked cheerfully again.
Sometimes, it does not matter so much as who is in the right, and who is in the wrong. For we are always in the right in our own myopic eyes. What matters more is whether we have treated our loved ones with love, isn' it?
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
