There is a novel that I like the most. It is a short novel called “My Destiny for My Mother” written by writer Maung Nwe Aung (Dagon Saung). I loved it so much after reading it that I bought the magazine containing the novel and kept it.

Why do I like that dress? I am studying far away from my mother. The city where I study is a small mountain town. It is always cold. There are strawberries. They grow May flowers. I go to the market on days when I am allowed to go out of school. I buy what I need with the money my mother sends me. I have to buy a lot. That's why I never bought anything for my mother. I gave her a gift. My mother took it and spread it out. Then my mother smiled. That smile was a smile of joy. A smile full of satisfaction, she said, a gift.

My mother read each one. She saw that it was written, "My destiny for my mother." My mother shed tears. She wrote that she knew very well that they were tears of joy.

The ritual is over. The end is the life of the ritual. That is, it is not necessary to win the lottery.

I read the novel and shed tears. Why did the young mother in the story smile with joy? Thinking about it, I found the answer. It was because she recognized and rejoiced in the gratitude of a son who could not afford it. I believe that every mother has that feeling.

The author has depicted that a mother only wants love from her children. This novel has highlighted that a mother does not give birth to her children expecting them to eat, drink, or wear clothes. That is why I like this short story the most.
