This story
begins when I was a child: I was born poor. Often we hadn't enough to eat.
Whenever we had some food, Mother often gave me her portion of rice. While she
was transferring her rice into my bowl, she would say "Eat this rice, son! I'm
not hungry."

This was Mother's First Lie.

As I
grew, Mother gave up her spare time to fish in a river near our house; she hoped
that from the fish she caught, she could give me a little bit more nutritious food for my growth. Once
she had caught just two fish, she would make fish soup. While I was eating the
soup, mother would sit beside me and eat the what was still left on the bone of
the fish I had eaten, My heart was touched when I saw it. Once I gave the other
fish to her on my chopstick but she immediately refused it and said, "Eat this
fish, son! I don't really like fish."

This was
Mother's Second Lie.

Then, in order to fund my education,
Mother went to a Match Factory to bring home some used matchboxes, which she
filled with fresh matchsticks. This helped her get some money to cover our
needs. One wintry night I awoke to find Mother filling the matchboxes by
candlelight. So I said, "Mother, go to sleep; it's late: you can continue
working tomorrow morning." Mother smiled and said "Go to sleep, son! I'm not
tired."

This was Mother's Third Lie.

When I
had to sit my Final
Examination, Mother accompanied me. After dawn, Mother waited for me for
hours in the heat of the sun. When the bell rang, I ran to meet her.. Mother
embraced me and poured me a glass of tea that she had prepared in a thermos. The
tea was not as strong as my Mother's love, Seeing Mother covered with
perspiration, I at once gave her my glass and asked her to drink too. Mother
said "Drink, son! I'm not thirsty!".

This was
Mother's Fourth Lie.

After Father's death, Mother had to play
the role of a single parent. She held on to her former job; she had to fund our
needs alone. Our family's life was more complicated. We suffered from
starvation. Seeing our family's condition worsening, my kind Uncle who lived
near my house came to help us solve our problems big and small. Our other
neighbors saw that we were poverty stricken so they often advised my mother to
marry again. But Mother refused to remarry saying "I don't need love."

This was Mother's Fifth Lie.

After I
had finished my studies and gotten a job, it was time for my old Mother to
retire but she carried on going to the market every morning just to sell a few
vegetables. I kept sending her money but she was steadfast and even sent the
money back to me. She said, "I have enough money."

That was Mother's Sixth Lie.

I
continued my part-time studies for my Master's Degree. Funded by the American
Corporation for which I worked, I succeeded in my studies. With a big jump in my
salary, I decided to bring Mother to enjoy life in America but Mother didn't
want to bother her son; she said to me "I'm not used to high living."

That was Mother's Seventh Lie.

In her
dotage, Mother was attacked by cancer and had to be hospitalized. Now living far
across the ocean, I went home to visit Mother who was bedridden after an
operation. Mother tried to smile but I was heartbroken because she was so thin
and feeble but Mother said, "Don't cry, son! I'm not in pain."

That was Mother's Eighth Lie.

Telling me
this, her eighth lie, she died. YES, MOTHER WAS AN ANGEL!
M - O - T - H - E
- R

"M" is for the Million things she gave me,

"O" means Only that she's growing
old,

"T"
is for the Tears she shed to save
me,

"H"
is for her Heart of gold,

"E" is for her Eyes with love-light shining
in them,

"R"
means Right, and right
she'll always be.

Put
them all together, they spell "MOTHER" a word that means the world to me.

For those who are lucky to be still blessed with your Mom's presence
on Earth, this story is beautiful. For those who aren't so blessed, this is even
more beautiful.

Warm
regards

I love you mom
!
