Joy and pain of motherson relationship from "summary" of Born a Crime by Trevor Noah
In my life, I have learned that the relationship between a mother and her son can be a complex dance of emotions. There is a deep joy that comes from the unconditional love and support that a mother provides. Growing up, my mother was my rock, my protector, my everything. She was the one who held our family together, who fought tooth and nail to make sure we had what we needed to survive. But alongside that joy, there is also pain. My mother was a strict disciplinarian, quick to punish me when I stepped out of line. She believed in tough love, in teaching me the hard lessons of life so that I would be prepared for whatever challenges came my way. And while I resented her at times for her strictness, I also knew that it came from a place of deep love and concern for my well-being. One of the most poignant moments in my relationship with my mother came when she made the difficult decision to send me to live with my father. It was a painful separation, one that tore at my heart and left me feeling abandoned and alone. But looking back, I realize that it was a decision made out of love, a sacrifice she made so that I could have a chance at a better life. Through all the ups and downs of our relationship, one thing remains constant: the love that my mother has for me. It is a love that transcends boundaries, that weathers storms, that endures through the darkest of times. And even though our relationship has been marked by joy and pain, I know that at the end of the day, my mother will always be there for me, ready to support me, to guide me, and to love me unconditionally.
