One day a man came to Umar and ask : “My dear friend, I have try my best to serve my mom at her gloaming age till she passed away. Would my action able to consider equal to what my mom did to me when I was a baby?
Then Umar replied to this question firmly: “It is never the same, no matter how well you serve your mom at her last time. It is never the same compare to what she did to you when you’re still a baby. No matter how hard you carry your mom on your back, walk from medinna to mecca, what you have done will never worthy enough to be compare with your mother’s deed on you. When you’re a baby, this pray always flowering her lips. She pray and beg to God for you to be long live, fulfill your needs, and make sure you’ll get the best of all. But, while a child get the chance to serve his mother, how many time he sounds whining. Then it will never the same, since mother only offer many kinds of huge unconditional love to her children.
For how many times, we saw our mother stays awake at night just to make sure all her children safely sleeps on a warm cushion each night. She gently touch us from head to toes, just to make sure there’s no single wound upon our body after playing outside. And when she found a single wound on our body, no matter how small the scratch is, she couldn’t bear to avert from falling tears and will do anything to avoid us to sense the pain.
How brave she face any obstacles in life, which might jeopardize our safety? Her eyes turn out like an eagle, while guarding us outside, to scare anyone who might harm us. It’s not just her intuitive worries, but her huge love to us make her scare nothing, sacrifice everything and willing to do anything to her child.
God don’t give her a rough hands, but a soft one to rub our forehead gently. Warm lip to kiss our pain away, God grant her more tears to show the huge love she felt. And God give her more courage to deliver a baby, while other wouldn’t able to bear the pain.
Luv you mom……

memang luar biasa pengabdian seorang ibu, lebih dari siapa pun. Rasulullah saw sampai tiga kali merekomendasikan hormat kpd ibu, sementara pd ayah hanya satukali. :)
I like this post about your mom...so gentle. The old pics are taken when I lived in Hawaii. I am trying to write down all the wonderful memories before I forget! Being the oldest of 5 kids makes me feel a little...I don't know, responsible for keeping some memories alive of our family. I have always regretted not being able to converse easily with my grandparents. They didn't speak much english, so I never knew what it was like when they were growing up.
Dew, Kalau aku baca tulisan ini saat aku masih muda ( before pregnant and gave a birth ) mungkin akan terasa biasa dan mengharukan.
Tapi aku baca tulisan kamu ini aku mengiyakan banget rasanya pengorbanan seorang ibu, susahnya sejak dalam kandungan dan sampai membesarkan aku.Dulu kayaknya banyak banget ngelawan ke mama.
Sekarang jadi sering minta maaf deh rasanya belum cukup permintaaan maafku sebelum cium telapak kaki mama.Dan itupun belum juga bisa ditutupin.soalnya pengorbanan beliau besar sekali apalagi beliau mendidik aku seorang diri.
the way you wrote here make my cry every single word really touchfully and right.
Thanks Dewi.. untuk mengingatkan hal ini menjelang hari raya.
