Rule #105: There will come a time in life when you begin to realize that there are some people you will never see again, at least not in the same way.

 
Nothing is tougher than holding back your tears when you see your own Mother crying her heart out to you. It’s an inexplicable feeling to see her so hurt that the world even seems to flip itself over. Your soul aches and a piece of you dies a little when you look into her eyes full of sadness and pain. You wonder to yourself how many times she has silently cried throughout the years but only God alone knows the endless hours she has spent on her bended knees praying for her family. No one knows the disappointments that choke her heart as she fights to keep things from falling apart. Hoping you could mend her broken heart, you breathe in and out deeply trying to hold yourself together so you could be a pillar of strength to her as she weeps. At night when all the lights are off and everyone is asleep, you can't help but cry in your prayer mat for God to ease your Mother's pain and swear that no matter what happens you will never leave her all alone.
