A while ago, my mom went to a reunion with her high school friends. I went along with her. The other moms were talking about the achievements of their children, showing them off and bragging about the things their children have reached while my mom didn't join the conversation. She didn't say a word about me.
It made me think.
You'll know you have never achieved anything if your mom's friends are talking about how great their children are while your mother remained silent about you.
Have I not achieved anything great? Have I not done anything remarkable?
Or are my efforts just not enough to make my parents proud?
I felt really really bad. When will they be proud of me? Or will they ever be proud of me?
