My mom told me

Since I was a kid

My mom told me 

“You need to be strong”

My mom told me

“Stand up when you fall”

My mom told me 

“ Failure teaches success”

My mom told me

“No pain no gain”

She has taught me a lot of things

That I need to be a strong women

She said:

“Everyone in this world think

Women don’t have to be strong

Women don’t need a job”

I asked “Why?”

She said “Because men will do that”

They’re all believe 

Women need to find for herself a husband

A good and rich husband

A husband who can take care for them

About money, house, financial

But you know what?

Money can’t not buy happiness

Money can’t buy love

I asked “But mom, Where should women stay? And what do they do for living?”

“In this house, in the kitchen

Her job is cooking, give birth, take care for her kids” she replied

“But, why did you ask me to be a strong woman?” I asked

“Because you don’t need to depend on a man

You don’t have to stay in the kitchen for your whole life”

Don’t have a boring life

Don’t waste your life in this cage

And never.... Never depend on a man

That’s a ridiculous thing in this world ever

Girl, why do you need to depend on a man?

You have enough power and energy to live by yourself

“Don’t depend on anyone”


My mom told me

Don’t married to soon

Live for your youth

Live freedom 

Live the life you want

Don’t ever live for anyone’s life

Before you love someone

Love yourself first

Before you love someone

Learn how to respect yourself first

Before you love someone

You need to learn a million thing about the relationship that you will step in


My mom told me

When you broke up with someone

Don’t cry

Don’t cry for someone who not deserve your love

Don’t waste your time and tears

Don’t hurt yourself

Don’t be silly

Don’t hate your ex

They may teach you something that called “Grow up”

Respect him for all things he did

Don’t and don’t….

And marry when you ready

Marry a man who you believe he will love you

To the end of his life

Marry a rich man

A rich man mean he has a rich heart and love for you

Marry him

Marry that rich him like your father.

 

My mom have taught me a lot of thing

Since I was a kids

Everyday is a new lesson and new things that I learn from her

Sometimes, I thought

She’s a serious women

Sometimes she taught a thing that so far away

But I forgot

She used to like me

She went through

And she understand me more than everyone in this world

I want to say that

“Thank you for everything that you said and taught me

I will remember and I will teach my kid like how you did”
