I don’t think any of my friends has seen me crying since I had friends. I am not saying that I am a very strong or hardened person, but I think I am a kind of person who will not easily cry, especially when there are people around.
There is one of my best friends back in China, we’ve known each other for around 15 years, but she never saw me crying, one day she came to ask me ‘hey you know I never see you crying, I am curious to know in this world what can make you cry?’ At that time I was like ‘I don’t even know!’
But now I’ve found out the answer, it’s my family (and my beloved, but this one is ‘not applicable’ at this moment of my life:D).
I always think that I am so lucky and blessed to have my parents, they always put me in prior, give me the better of the best, and never fail to support me. These days I am considering whether or not I should really stay in Australia for master after bachelor, and I said to my parents ‘if I made a decision to stay, then I’ll probably also stay for my career and most of my life, and for the following years, I may not go back home that often, and what’s more, these years you two have spent a lot on me, and doing master will be another huge expense.’
But then dad replied ‘there’s nothing wrong for parents to spend money on their children, we’ll always prepare everything for you. Your mummy and I will always support you!’
mum said ‘those things shouldn’t be problems, you can’t come back that often, but we can go to see you, and can’t you see how God has been blessing our family? what are you still waiting for as He has opened the door for you!’
I shed my tear in the end, as I can see how much they love me and how much they have done to support me. They always offer me the best without complaint, even when I disappoint them. They love me not only by their unfailing support, but also understanding. They make me a happy princess wherever I go!
Dear Lord! Thank you from the very bottom of my heart, for giving me such wonderful parents! You never fail to love and bless me, sometimes I don’t even think I deserve all of these blessings, but you did have them all done!
In Proverbs 23:24-26 of the Bible it says:
The father of a righteous man has great joy; he who has a wise son delights in him. May your father and mother be glad; may she who gave you birth rejoice! My son, give me your heart and let your eyes keep to my ways.
I hope I will be the one who will bring my parents joy and happiness and make them glad!Amen!
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
