Heaven is Mother

Where is heaven? This question is often raised by most people who seek the meaning of life. Some say heaven is located with the phrase “Heaven is on the bottom of mother's foot”. There was a point when people say so. Let us see the truth of this phrase.

A mother only has 2 hands, just like a man, but able to do many things. Her hands seemed versatile. Able to give food, can take care many children, and above all, from them came a warm embrace, which relieve all the pain and distress.
A mother has a smooth skin and soft body. But never underestimate its power. She was awake when the others were still asleep, and she was still awake when the others were already asleep. Its softness can unravel many cases and release conflicts.

A mother has the special tears. She will melt seeing her children succeed. She would weep seeing them slumped. Her tears represent the strength and happiness. Untold tears came out when she gave birth, not tears of sadness but happiness.

A mother is heaven, not only the bottom of her foot. Look at the children, to whom they were running when get the troubled hearts. To whom the prodigal son ran to get the warmth of a hug? Mother became a safe shelter from all the rage. Come to her to get relief.

A mother is like the image of God. Always brings relief. "Come unto me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matt. 11: 28). All the burdens of our pain is released, if we came to her. Mother will give a soothing embrace, like God who took all the pains of everyone who came to Him.

Unfortunately we often forget our mothers when our hearts are happy. Like God whom we left when our lives are happy. Why we do not keep coming to Him, happy nor sad? Why wait until our shoulders were tired then running to Him? Come! Come to feel heaven, anytime.
