In the space of a moment, that deep conversation filled with tears

On September 25, 2017, in Tianjin, on a quiet night, sitting in front of the computer, organizing my thoughts and typing away, I suddenly fell into deep contemplation. I finally figured out why; I should be truly grateful. I remember once when I took En to East Lake; we prayed to God there. I asked God to grant En wisdom so that she could study well, while she prayed that God would help her mother work properly, that the people at her mother’s company would treat her well, and that everyone she met would be kind to her. In his daily prayers, he would pray for me in this way… Perhaps it was the faith of a simple child, and God answered his prayers in that manner. Thank God, thank Lain, thank you for meeting! I thought again of that night that made me cry bitterly. On August 13, 2017, in Jingmen, on the night right after I had brought him back from a trip to Shennongjia, I gave him a bath and asked him to wait for me in bed. After I finished taking a bath and was drying my hair as I came out, he asked, \"Mom, how old are you this year?\" I casually said I was 32 years old, and he asked what my youngest age was. I replied that it must have been when I was in college, around 20 years old. He suddenly started to choke up, which left me a bit panicked and caught off guard. I quickly went over and lay down beside him, asking him how he came up with that idea. He started crying and said, \"I just don’t want Mom to get old. I’m growing up little by little, while you’re getting older gradually.\" Mom, no matter if I grow up, go to college, start working, or find a wife, no matter how old I get, I will always remember you. I’ll look at the photos of the places you took me to, and I will never forget you. He kept crying while saying those words... With tears in my eyes, I still couldn’t help but interrupt him. But I still have to tell her that there will come a day when I leave him… I told him that when you get old, Mom might leave you to go to heaven and watch over you, waiting for you there. He said, “Mom, one day I’ll go to heaven to find you too. By then, I hope you can still take me with you and be my mom, okay?” ”In an instant, tears streamed down my face; I couldn’t control myself. I held him in my arms, and we both cried bitterly. A child who is only 5 years old already has such emotions and speaks in such words; it’s hard to describe the feelings that come from a little one’s mouth. I remember my childhood; deep down, I didn’t want my mother to grow old either, but I never expressed those feelings outwardly – I just cried in secret... I’m not as brave as Lion; I don’t have the courage to express my love like he does. Thank you for letting my mother know that you love me... Before you said those words, I had never thought about an afterlife. My mother hopes that if there is one, she can still be your mother, and you can still be her baby... You’re such a wonderful person, such a kind man; no amount of warmers can compare to you! ! You are always grateful to God for letting your parents get married and have you born; I am truly incredibly fortunate to have you as my child. Thank you for being here! !
