Woke up realising that my spectacles and devotional book were on the floor. I guess I was simply too tired last night and I fell asleep before I could do my quiet time. So yup, the moral of the story is, never do quiet time on the bed, especially when you know that you're really exhausted. Haha. =/

Hmm... I felt that something was really weird today when I woke up. Yup, my mom's still lying in bed. Not that it's weird for a sick person to be resting in bed... But yah, at first thought when I woke up today, if you were to ask me where my mom is and I would say that she's probably up and awake cleaning the house and preparing breakfast and I would always think that I'm awoken by the aroma of whatever she's cooking.

Guess I'm just so used to her doing so many things for the family. Even in my dream last night, she was washing my clothes... =( And maybe that's why I felt that things seemed so different the moment I woke up today - thinking that my mom was awake as usual doing some housework and then realising that oh ya, she's unwell.

"天下的妈妈都是一样的." That's what Shermaine said last night when I told her mom that her soup tasted like my mom's cooking. I never thought that the statement would just come back to me again this morning when I was thinking about how my mom raised the the four of us up single-handedly. If every mother in the world are the same, then they all ought to be rewarded equally too!

But I guess that what the statement really meant is that every mother loves her children. There's no difference in how much motherly love a rich tai tai or a poor beggar would give to her children. They all love their children the same! Just that some poor mothers have to struggle more than the wealthier ones to provide for their children. And some unfortunate mothers don't get what they deserve at the end of the day for their unfailing love.

And I just hope that my mom wouldn't be an unfortunate one. I hope that she'll get well soon and enjoy a long and blessed life.

Strum to the MUSIC!!
