My mother only had one eye. And because of this， I never wished her to show up in my school， being afraid that my classmates would I had an ugly mother.
One day during elementary school， I was terribly ill. My mother came .
“Your mom only has one eye?!” asked some of my classmates. I was so embarrassed.
I wished my mother would just from this world. “ If you make me teased(嘲笑)，why don’t you just die?” I shouted at her， taking no notice of the sad look on her face. My mother just handed me some medicine and left without saying .
At that time， I felt to say what I always wanted to say， and I didn’t think I had hurt her feelings very much. That night I saw my mom in her room， so quietly， as if she was afraid that she might me. Even so， I hated her tears from one eye. I made a decision ： I must study hard and leave my mother.
Years later my dream came true. I was quite successful and lived . I never thought of going back to see my “ugly” mother one day I got a letter， which said， “My son… I’m sorry I only have one eye. When you were little， you got into an accident and lost your eye. As a mom， I couldn’t stand watching you live with only one eye. I gave you mine. I was never with you and I never regretted(后悔) what I did because I love you…”
I cried out aloud. Only then did I realize how beautiful my mother was!
