Dear Clint, let me tell you a short story we in Iran tell to our children about mother’s love and devotion. There was a guy who fell in love with a devilish girl. The girl urged him to kill his mother if he wants her to accept his love. The guy who was hypnotized by her love decided to do that. One day he pushed his mother on the ground and sat on her chest while holding a knife in his hand, and told the story of the girl’s demand to her. He said” I am sorry mother I have to kill you because I cannot even imagine a life without this girl". Her mother said ”I accept it on one condition”. He asked what condition?” On the condition that, when you use this knife to kill me, you must be careful not to injure your hands, her mother said! Some new researchs show, those who get enough love from their parents become very compassionate people when they are grown up. Mmmm, this video spread love in the air.
