Humbled

by simplyjen

Am humbled that all my mum wants for her birthday is just to have dinner with me at home and a very small cake so that I can sing her a birthday song. I guess I have always known that this is all she wants. For her past birthdays, I have always made more of an effort in organizing dinner out or made an attempt at cooking dinner. This year, I feel really too exhausted to do more than just ta bao some hawker fare, the fact that she was equally happy really warms my heart. I feel truly humbled in my parents’ love for me. It was the one thing I have always taken pride in when growing up. My family may be poor but I have always feel rich from their overflowing love for me.
