The most beautiful thing in this world is to see your parents smiling and knowing that you are the reason behind those generous smiles. But in today’s world there are so many parents who cry alone in elders’ homes because of their children. These parents have shed their blood and sweat to raise their children into perfect personalities in the society having so many hopes and dreams in their minds. But their hopes have broken into pieces and now they are left alone in the world.

Moratumulla Methodist Elders’ Home is one such place which is the shelter for few mothers who are left alone in this world. Every year, we UoM Leos make a small effort to bring some light to their gloomy lives. This time we visited them on 7 th of April 2016. Their happy smiling faces depicted that they were waiting for our visitation. For the whole evening they sang with us, danced with us and shared their life time stories with us. And also we had tea and snacks with them. We felt like we were their saviors, who pulled them up from their gloomy lonely lives. Seeing their smiling, lightened up faces we felt sorry, who on earth can leave such nice mothers alone in this world like this.

Your parents might not be perfect, but they are the most precious gift god has ever given you. Never forget your parents or leave them behind because you are ashamed to have them around you. They are the reason why you are here and who you are today. So love your parents and treat them with care. Don’t leave them at elders’ homes. Because you will only know their values when you see their empty seats.
