I got a hollow feeling in my heart after I finished it.
Try to think that How Many Times You Did Not Stood Up For Ur Mum and How Many Times Ur Mum Had Stood Up For You. You might get a big surprise!
Here's a note from Charley's mum, Posey Benetto to him on his wedding day.
"To my Charley on his wedding day,
I know u think these notes are silly. I have watched you scrunch your face over the years when I give them to you. But understand that sometimes I want to tell you something and I want to get it just right. Putting it down on paper helps me do that. I wish I had been a better writer. I wish I had gone to college. If I had, I think I would have studied English and maybe my vocabulary would have improved. So many times I feel I am using th esame words over and over, like a woman wearing the same dress everyday. So boring!
What I want to say to you, Charley, is you are marrying a wonderful girl. I think of Catherine in many ways like I think of Roberta. Like a daughter. She is sweet and patient. You should be the same with her, Charley.
Here is what you are going to find out about marriage: you have to work at it together. And you have to love three things. You have to love
1) Each other.
2) Your children (When you have some! Hint! Hint!)
3) Your marriage.
What I mean by that last one is, there may be times that you fight, and sometimes you and Catherine won't even like each other. But those are the times you have to love your marriage. It's like a third party. Look at your wedding photos. Look at any memories you've made. And if you believe in those memories, they will pull you back together.
I'm very proud of you today, Charley. I'm putting this in your tuxedo pocket because I know how you lose things.
I love you every day!
Mom"
The book teaches you how to appreciate the ones you loved.
Recollect the times you turned your parents down when they asked you for dinner.
There's no use to regret things when they are gone forever.
owh, hell. The hollow feeling comes back again. :(
