Fifteen years ago, the 100-day feast was a mixture of joy and tragedy. The stubbornness of my mother-in-law led to my son's accident. At that moment, I was frightened and helpless, and my son gradually lost his breath of life in my arms. That scene became an indelible scar on my heart. Whenever I think about it, my heart is filled with endless pain and hatred.
Time flies, I am pregnant again, and the arrival of a new life has not completely ** my inner trauma. However, when I learned that my mother-in-law was already suffering from cerebellar atrophy and that her behavior was no longer out of my control, the hatred in my heart began to waver. For the past fifteen years, she has suffered as much pain as I do, and she wants to see me, but she is afraid to bring back my painful memories.
Standing in front of her bed, I burst into tears. Her appearance has completely changed, and she is no longer the stubborn mother-in-law. And I also understood the knot in my heart: I had always misunderstood her. As a grandmother, she loves my son deeply, and that love is innate.
I held her cold hand, and it was clear in my heart that it was time for me to forgive. Now that I have my lovely daughter by my side, I'm sure she will want me to do the same in heaven. So, I whispered my blessing to my mother-in-law, wishing her wellness in the other world. At this moment, I was relieved.
There are many helplessness and regrets in life, but when we choose to let go, our hearts will be truly liberated.
