The words that break my heart, that I can’t bare to hear, when my mum says ”I’m tired” …I look at her, straight into her eyes; when will God give her a break, and yet, all the things I do to help, for her, she says it’s more than enough, but I’ll never stop till I never hear her say those words. When I hear those words, I think of her life, past experiences, just trying to put myself in her shoes… put situations into perspective. It envies me when I see mum’s out there who don’t work, don’t lift a finger, and still get paid… and here’s my mum, always smiling when she says those words: ”I’m tired”
