Today is Mothers' Day. No matter where we are in the world, maternallove is universal, and often considered the warmest. Students from China,Tajikistan, Egypt, Mongolia, Russia and Liberia, all studying at TianjinForeign Studies University, share their stories about mum.
“We have different experiences.”
“We have different cultures and traditions.”
“I'm unique and so are you.”
“We are so different, yet so similar.”
Tell us something about your Mum.
“My mother likes noodles.”
“She enjoys learning.”
“She's imaginative and always has new ideas.”
“She's a hardworking, beautiful person who has stressresistance.”
“Tell us a story about your Mum.”
“I used to cook for her when I was 15 or 16 years old. When Icame to China and wasn't used to Chinese food, I cooked for myself every day.At the time I realized the importance of her teaching me cooking.”
“We have our traditional food, which is called potato grains.That's my favorite dish that she always made.”
“Whenever she sends me something, she always puts in someordinary snacks which can be easily bought. For me, it's a bit of a waste ofmoney. Because shipping also has costs.”
“If something is bothering me or if I'm in a bad mood, sheknows just from my eyes what's going on in my mind.”
“She told me I have made her dreams come true. Because herdream was for me to study in university, to study abroad.”
“In fact, I'm a mom, and when I gave birth to my baby, it wasvery painful. But when she touched me, it seemed so magical. The pain suddenlystopped.”
“When I was young, I made my mum beautiful birthday cards fortwo years. When I grew up, I saw these cards in her drawer. She looked afterthem. But I haven't made her birthday cards for years.”
“But I didn't say to her 'I miss you, I love you' veryoften.”
“I miss her a lot.”
No matter where we come from, our thoughts of longing head in thesame direction. And our love also goes in the same direction.
“Ｉlove you.”
“Mom, I love you.”
