My mother is by Ji Yeon Yu

An existence of family is much more special to me, since I am not able to see them anytime for over 9 years. At the age of 14, I came to America to study abroad. I still remember the moment that me and my parents cried and cried in the hotel after the first week of school.

An existence of family is much more special to me, since I am not able to see them anytime for over 9 years. At the age of 14, I came to America to study abroad. I still remember the moment that me and my parents cried and cried in the hotel after the first week of school. I always waited summer and winter breaks. Because those were the only time that I could meet and spend time with family. Yes, we are the family who are not able to meet us anytime we want. We all had to spend long time to reach very short pleasant moments. I had to say good-bye to my parents with smily face when I could not. After I passed the security booth at the airport, my tears dropped even though I tried not to. 

I have spent my juvenile period in totally different county and environment from my family. Therefore, I have intimate relationship with my family, especially with my mother. The relationship between me and my mother is very close compared to others who have similar age with me. My mother is; my most closest person, and my best friend. My mother is; delicate like a little girl, but a strongest and powerful figure in the world. To others, she might be reflected as a very ordinary woman. However, my mother is; a big tree that makes a shadow where I can rest from strong sunlights and harsh thunder storms. When I fall down, she always raise me up. My mother is; my role model who always holds my hands and gives her shoulders to cry on. We are living on the opposite side of the earth. We are living apart 6906 miles away. However, I always feel her and her love.
