It’s not every day that we get the chance to thank our mothers on their little sacrifices.
Seventeen-year-old Carmelo Dela Cruz shared on Facebook how he felt extremely grateful for his mom and her act of selfless love.
He said he was rushing to go to school and wanted to avoid traffic. Carmelo then was surprised to see his mom barefoot running to him with his lunch.
Carmelo said his mother crossed a footbridge without slippers.
His meal for that day was rice with hotdog and embutido.
“Flex ko si mama ko, kaninang umaga nagmamadali ako pumasok dahil malalate na ako. Mahirap kasi sumakay at traffic pa… tapos di ko namalayan na di ko pala nalagay sa bag ko yung baunan ko,” Carmelo wrote.
“Hindi na nakapag-tsinelas man lang dahil sa pagmamadali para lang di ako magutom sa school at imagine ang layo ng tinakbo ni mama mula sa bahay namin hanggang sa sakayan,” he said.
Carmelo revealed that he has a very close relationship with his mother. He said he also wants people to show their love to their mothers for their daily sacrifices.
