The concerns of her safety from
her children, very, heartwarming to her, the love of children, expressed toward
their, mother…translated…On this day, I'd, gone to take
my scooter out of the garage, putting my helmet, on, readied to go, out. Then, a voice came from behind me, "mom, you'd,
not put on the certified helmet again!", turned my head, my youngest son, made
his way to my ride then. "I'd told you
that the one that covers your entire head is safer, but why won't you, listen!",
the complaints started, and this time, it'd come from my daughter, who'd, approached
me, silently; as I'd, shifted my gaze downward, I saw her, with a full covered
helmet in her hands, with a straight face, waited for my, response.
must've happened like this from before...photo from online
I'd become like a child,caught doing something bad, in the act, by an, adult, I was, without, words then. The summers here are, scorching,hot, every time I'd placed my helmet on, with my sunglasses, the mask, I would always, be heated up, and covered in, sweat.
And although, I'd known, that the half-covered helmet wasn't safe enough, but, I'd liked the convenience, the cool, without that much sweating, I'd, always, kept that, I can get away with it mindset. My three young were educated in their schools about traffic safety frequently, they'd established the concepts of it, and would, mentioned to me repeatedly, and I'd, told them I will, but I just, can't, do it."Mom, didn't you tell us, that the best way to love your family, is keeping them from, worrying about you?", my eldest son, who had always been, articulate, entered into the battle at this time. Seeing how the three had, combined forces, how they won't back down, until I'd, complied to their, requests, I'd, raised that white flag immediately to surrender, and, took the full coverage helmet my daughter had in her hands, placed it on, and promised to my three children, that I will, NOT, "reoffend" again.
Then, my daughter finally gave me that sweet smile of hers, patted the helmet on my hand, to show that she'd, approved.Riding on the road, the sound of the wind, blew past my ears, the cool wind came into the helmet, and it'd, given me that feeling of, wellness. My three kids are, grown so suddenly, for my safety, started, choosing to selectively, be, stubborn toward having me wear the full-coverage helmet, the love from this helmet, it'd, felt warm, love, and firm.Sure! I should, set a better example for them, to love and protect myself. Because lovingmy families, is to, not give them, any, worries over me!
So, this is how love is, expressed, in the day-to-day goings on, and the children are correct, but the mother wanted to feel cooler, that was why she'd selected the half-coverage helmet, which wasn't safe enough, and the kids used their, persuasive skills, to teach the adult, that her safety is what concerns them the most, which the adult followed, and, the mother felt the love from her children's, nagging her to be safe on the roads.
