We are always kind to strangers, but when it comes to family, we take them for granted. This has happened to me too many times.
Yesterday during a busy clinic, mom called me to tell me about her problems. Usually, I would tell her I was working and would call her.
Yesterday I just excused myself from work and listened to my mom discuss all her problems. She talked and sobbed too. I just heard her out.
Later in the evening, she called again to say she was sorry for disturbing me at work. I reassured her that I wasn’t, and we both felt happy and relieved.
Takeaway
Be kind to all including your parents.They need to be heard as well.
