MY MOM ONLY HAD ONE EYE…

 My mom only had one eye. 

I hated her... she was such an embarrassment.

She cooked for students & teachers to support the family.

There was this one day during elementary school where my mom came to say hello to me.

I was so embarrassed.
How could she do this to me?!

I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out.

The next day at school one of my classmates said,
"EEEE, your mom only has one eye!"

I wanted to bury myself.
I also wanted my mom to just disappear.

So I confronted her that day and said, " If you´re only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don´t you just die?!!!"

My mom did not respond!!!

I didn´t even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger.

I was oblivious to her feelings…

I wanted out of that house..

So I studied real hard, got a chance to go to Singapore to study.

Then, I got married.
I bought a house of my own.
I had kids of my own. I was happy with my  life

Then one day, my mother came to visit me. She hadn´t seen me in years and she didn´t even meet her grandchildren!.

When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her.

I screamed at her, "How dare you come to my house and scare my children!"
GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!"

And to this, my mother quietly answered, "Oh, I´m so sorry.

I may have gotten the wrong address," and she disappeared out of sight.

One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house.

So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip…

After the reunion, I went to the old shack just out of curiosity!!!.

My neighbors said that she died.

I did not shed a single tear!!.

They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have…

"My dearest son, I think of you all the time..

I´m sorry that I came to Singapore and scared your children.

I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion.

But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you.

I´m sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were growing up.

You see........when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye.

As a mother, I couldn´t stand watching you having to grow up with one eye.

So… I gave you mine…..

I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye.

…With my love to you…

…Your mother…

ANNEMÝN YALNIZCA BÝR GÖZÜ VARDI

Annemin yalnýzca bir gözü vardý. Ondan nefret ederdim… Çünkü bu durum beni utandýrýyordu.

Ailemizi geçindirmek için okulda aþçýlýk yapardý.

Ýlkokulda iken bir gün annem bana merhaba demeye gelmiþti.

Yerin dibine geçmiþtim. Bunu bana nasýl yapabilirdi?

Onu görmezden geldim. Ona nefretle baktým ve oradan kaçtým.

Ertesi gün sýnýfta bir arkadaþým dedi ki, “Eeee, senin annenin yalnýzca bir gözü var!”

Yerin dibine girmek istedim. Ve de annemin ortadan kaybolmasýný istedim.

Bu yüzden o gün onunla karþýlaþýnca dedim ki, “Beni gülünç duruma düþüreceðine ölsen daha iyi?!!!”

Annem karþýlýk vermedi.

Dediklerim hakkýnda bir saniye bile durup düþünmedim çünkü çok kýzmýþtým.

Onun duygularý beni ilgilendirmiyordu.

Onu evde istemiyordum..

Çok çalýþtým ve Singapur’a okumaya gittim.

Sonra evlendim. Kendi evimi aldým. Çocuklarým oldu ve hayatýmdan memnundum.

Bir gün annem beni ziyarete gelmiþti. Kaç yýldýr beni görmemiþ ve torunlarýný tanýmamýþtý.

Kapýya gelince çocuklarým ona güldüler.

Ona “Evime gelip çocuklarýmý nasýl korkutabilirsin!

HEMEN BURADAN GÝT!” diye baðýrdým.

Buna annemin sessizce “Kusura bakmayýn. Yanlýþ adrese geldim galiba” dedi ve gözden kayboldu.

Bir gün mezunlar toplantýsý için okuldan bir mektup aldým.

Karýma “iþ seyahatine gidiyorum” diye bahane uydurdum.

Mezunlar toplantýsýndan sonra sýrf meraktan eski eve gittim!!!.

Komþularým, annemin öldüðünü söylediler.

Hiç üzülmemiþtim.

Bana verilsin diye annemin býraktýðý bir mektup verdiler.

“En sevgili oðlum, her zaman seni düþünüyorum…

Singapur’a gelip çocuklarýný korkuttuðum için üzgünüm.

Mezunlar gününe geleceksin diye çok sevinmiþtim.

Ama seni görmek için yataktan kalkabilir miyim bilemiyorum.

Sen büyürken sürekli bir utanç kaynaðý olduðum için üzgünüm.

Biliyor musun… sen çok küçükken bir kaza geçirmiþtin ve gözünü kaybetmiþtin.

Anne olarak senin tek bir gözle büyümene dayanamazdým.

Bu yüzden sana kendi gözümü verdim…

O gözle benim yerime görüyor diye seninle o kadar gurur duyuyordum ki.

Bütün sevgimle…..

Annen…
