About heaven and earth

Yesterday my husband told me that one of his colleagues was leaving. The reason is that the colleague's mother has lung cancer and her condition has been deteriorating. And this colleague is an only son, and he is not taken care of around at this time, and he is deeply ashamed of his parents. So I resolutely resigned and left Beijing and went home to take care of my mother. My husband and I are very sympathetic to such misfortunes in his family, and also lament the filial piety of this colleague. But in addition to sympathy and sighing, I also raised a very realistic question, this colleague went home to take care of his mother, and the next treatment should require high medical expenses, so what to do?

Going home to take care of my mother or staying in Beijing to earn money to pay for medical expenses is a difficult choice. This didn't happen to me, and it's a lot of talk. But, I wonder what we can do when our parents are healthy.

In fact, most of us tend to neglect to care about our parents when they are healthy. I still complained to my mom about my in-laws today. My father-in-law is in Cangzhou, we are in Beijing, and we are going to Hengshui for the wedding. The plan proposed by my in-laws was to first go to Cangzhou to pick up my father-in-law, and then go to Hengshui. I was very unhappy, I felt that my father-in-law could take the car to Hengshui by himself, and did not need us to pick him up. I should know something in my in-laws' hearts, they will feel that the family is driving together, and they have a face. I think I'm taking care of it, my baby is still young, and my husband is tired after driving for too long. But I was educated by my mother.

My mother said that I was not happy that my in-laws mentioned this request, and I really shouldn't. My mother-in-law helped us with our children in Beijing, gave up her freedom, and left my father-in-law alone at home. When people get old, they want to live a free little life with their wives. They paid so much that I couldn't see, but they held on to this point. Mom also told me about a former colleague of hers. Her colleague's daughter had a foot problem, had been hospitalized, had surgery, and spent a lot of money. Now the mother-in-law takes care of her children, and she does part-time work outside. She told her mother that she was never picky about what she ate. Her mother-in-law was extremely grateful for helping her take care of her children.

My mother told me that parents are heaven and children are earth. Only between heaven and earth can we live better, live happier, and scenery more beautiful. I felt that my mother was waking me up as a dreamer with a word. When my baby was born, I used to say to her, Mom is your god and will protect you. Today,my mother's words let me know that I have both heaven and earth. I should love them, not just the earth and ignore the sky.

Mom's words undermined the importance of parents. Don't be harsh on our parents or in-laws, they are our heavens and their health and happiness is one of our greatest blessings. Enjoy the joy of enjoying life when your parents are healthy. And their requirements are relatively easy to meet, and satisfying them is enough. Earn more if you can, and save more if you can, just in case you need it.

I'll talk about it today, and I hope we all have a happy and harmonious home.
