May she who gave you birth be happy
Make your parents happy. Be wise. Because they have sacrificed much to make you what you are right now.
Oh! When I am able to earn, I will buy the best things for her. Will it make her happy? Nope. I will buy her the best house and provide for all her needs. Will that satisfy her? No. Oh I will give her all what she needs. Will that make her have a peaceful life? No.
What will make her happy? Acknowledge her sacrifice. Spend time with her. Pray with her. Pray for her. Talk to her. Lest you would reach a situation when wouldn't be able to, even if you desire.
Yet Jesus said, if anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brethren and sisters, yea his own life, he cannot be my disciple. What does this mean? Why does Jesus advocate to hate our parents.
Love is relative for mankind. There is something called loving more or loving less. If I love someone less than the other, it is hatred as compared to the other. Loving God should be our numero uno priority and considering that, all the others should be hatred.
Yet love them, care for them, be there for them, spend time with them. That is how you express your love for them. As they move to the dusk of their life, they value YOU more than anything else in this world.
