5.0 out of 5 starsEVERY SINGLE person must read this book to understand the importance of their mothers
Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 3 May 2021
Gosh! This book really deserves a groundbreaking review, for it geometrically expands for anybody, the importance of understanding the sacrifices made by our mothers all throughout our lives.
This book has the potential to drive one to throw away little deeds of dismissal of our parents that we may be so so busy committing every single day, to reserving ourselves more time and space for deeds that we think are more important for us. The book has the potential to grab you by the collar and help you realise how foolishly you are chasing things that may never measure up into what will ultimately fulfill you, while the clock ticks away precious (dearly precious) hours of moments you could have basked in the glory of stepping into the mind, heart and soul of the only person (your mother....for many it is also our fathers...yes!) whose sole intention has and always been to see you live blissfully and happily, regardless of how much grumpiness you may have unloaded on her.
The book is groundbreaking in its ability to drive one nuts about the jaw-droppingly little degree of what we really really are regularly aware of the sacrifices our parents are making for us, asking for literally nothing in return.
When his life crashes, Chick spends one day with his dead mother, learning (in rewind) about the lushness of the angelic persona that she silently ushered him with all his childhood, to finally lose all his grip on that talking image of her to the stars. He realises this foolery and tears filled his soul.
The amount of impact this book has had on my life is indescribable!
I love you my mom, so much!
I have been dropping nonsensical, self-entered stuff just to be around her all the time....this is the overarching shift that has happened within me after reading this masterpiece. Same happening with father! Remember, parents have the purest form of love for you. Others will have returns-tagged! :)
I spend less time on me and more of losing myself in learning about life from my parents now!
Thank you Mitch really!
Please read this book if your parents are still alive!
Three books so far have made me so deeply aware of the beauty of parents--- To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, Father Figure by James Cudney and then, this!
