One day, I was so angry, that I decided to leave home never to return till I became a big boy (Till I harmmar).
I said to myself, Parents, who can't even buy me a pair of sandals, how will they be able to make my dream of becoming an Engineer come true.
In my fit of anger, I didn't even realise that I was wearing my father's Shoes.
I even stole his wallet, which had some papers that were torn and my mother had not noticed them...
While, I was rushing on foot towards the bus station, I realised some prickly pain in my foot. I also felt dampness inside the shoe.
That was when I realised the shoe had a hole underneath.
There were no buses around.
Not knowing what to do, I started to look in my Dad's wallet. I found a loan receipt of N1, 000,000, which he had taken from his office. A laptop bill (he had bought for me).
To my utter shock, I also found a letter from his manager to wear a neat looking shoes, henceforth to the office.
I remembered my mother pestering him to buy a pair of new shoes, but he would convince her that his shoes would last another six months at least.
I also, found an old scooter to a new bike, Exchange offer letter in his wallet.
I instantly remembered, that when I left home, my Dad's scooter was not there.
I started feeling weak in my legs, and felt like weeping uncontrollably!.
I ran back home with my foot paining, only to find my Dad nor the scooter there. I found him at the exchange offer place.
Looking at my Dad, my grief engulfed me.
I hugged him tightly and started crying loudly, said "Dad I don't need the Bike".
That was when I realised, the pain, hardship and stress our parents go through, and the unconditional love that they give us just to make us happy.
Morals:
We should only look to seek our needs and not our unrealistic wants.
Ridiculing parents when they are alive, and longing for them when they are not around, has no meaning..
Kindly tell this story to your children to help them identify and develop human values in them.
Whoever and whatever you are today, if your parent are still alive, please appreciate them because they can't be replace. You can never tell all that they have been through to see you alive today!
If you values and appreciate your parents kindly type I value my parent in the comment session to show some love to them
I value my parent!
May God bless all parents.
