It's Mother's Day today, what do you do for Mother's day?
Mother's Day usually means 'Mother can have a lie-in' day in my house (as in she can sleep for a bit longer in the morning).
To be honest, we really don't do anything all that special; maybe sometimes we will go out for dinner or a shopping trip but nothing to really celebrate it.
Why?
Because I think everyday should be Mother's day... I'm sure she'd appreciate a lot more if you made effort to care and make her smile each and every day, even little things, rather than put it all into a Birthday or special occasion day. Don't you think?
We have a Mother everyday, so lets make everyday Mother's day and show our filial piety (孝) as we should everyday. Of course, this applies to Father's Day too...
Respect, appreciation, gratefulness and gratitude are amongst many other things we should be towards our parents, and we should show it everyday, because they care for us deeply everyday.
Sometimes I feel there's less and less of filial piety apparent these days... especially in the Western world...
Are you a dutiful child? Do you do/fulfil your Filial Piety daily or even attempt to? (*^^*)
