Blogger Shares Parent’s Touching Gestures During Visits “I don’t leave empty-handed”
A blogger shared a touching story about his parents’ simple yet heartwarming gestures during visits.
Recently, Neil Jed Castro shared how every time he visits his parents, they never let him leave empty-handed. The post quickly spread like wildfire online and elicited comments from the social media users.
Neil Jed Castro shared the unconditional love that parents continue to show their children, no matter how old they get. His parents never let him leave empty-handed every time he visits them.
Whether it’s a home-cooked meal, fresh fruits from their backyard, or small essentials they think he might need, they always make sure to give him something. Even when he insists that he has enough, his parents still find ways to send him off with food or small gifts.
Sometimes, they prepare his favorite meals because they know he misses their cooking. Other times, they pick fruits from their trees, believing he will enjoy them later. Even if he tries to refuse, they discreetly pack items into his bag or urge him to take more “just in case.” It’s their way of ensuring that he is taken care of, even when he is away from home.
These small acts of love remind him that no matter how grown he is or how far he goes, he will always be their child.
Here is the full post:
“Every time I go back home to my parents, they always make sure to give me something—food they cooked, fresh fruits from the backyard, or anything they think I might need. Even when I tell them I have enough, they still insist, making sure I don’t leave empty-handed.
Sometimes, it’s a meal they prepared just for me because they know I miss their cooking. Other times, it’s fruit they picked from the trees outside, knowing I’ll enjoy it later. Even if I try to refuse, they find a way to give it anyway, slipping food into my bag or telling me to take a little more “just in case.”
It’s their way of showing love, of making sure I’m taken care of even when I’m not home.
And every time I leave with their food in my hands, I know that to them, I will always be their child, no matter how grown I am or how far I go.
Our parents are far from perfect, but looking back, they did their best to raise us well with everything they had, and that makes us so grateful.
Thank you, mama and papa!”
