My mother don’t cry, I’m still alive

Mother I didn’t have the time to tell you, how much I loved you, you gave me unconditional love, you gave me all the values I needed, you taught me that our country is more dear than anything in the world, for that when I went to military service, I wasn’t afraid to die, I was defending my country, I was very brave because you taught me that, you always said ( your country is more precious than your life). I’m so glad that you were my mother, that God gave me such good mother, you were always behind me in all I set out to do, teaching me all the morals you have, how to be honest, brave, and true.

Don’t cry mom, I am so happy because my beloved Syria, gave me the honor to be in it’s sanctified soil, because my blood mixed with it’s sand, and I’m asking my God to have mercy on you, and all the Syrian people, they don’t deserve what is happening to them, but God will not forget Syria, because it is an honorable land, and it’s people are very kind, I trust God to drive away these sufferings, and return Syria more better than it was.

I came to you, mom in the mother’s day, to tell you that I’m still alive, I am in heaven and my spirit will be always with you, please mom don’t cry, I want to give you thanks, because you gave me life, you tenderly cared for me and taught me to walk and talk. No one was delighted in my successes more than you, and no one comforted me in my failures, oh mom no one loved me more than you.

 I am praying for you mom, God bless you, I’m asking him to give you strength to bear my absence, and hope when you are discouraged, and love to spread to all the world.

Bless her my God with the graces she needs and you want to give her, help her to feel precious in your eyes today and every day, and to know how much I love her. My God give her strength, courage, compassion and peace.

I love you mom, God bless you.

I love you Syria, God bless you.
