NAME:
A young mother prepared dinner with her mind totally focused on what she was doing, she prepared the French fries, she was working hard to prepare a dish that children enjoy. much.
French fries were the favorite dish of her younger children, she had had an intense day at kindergarten and she would tell her mother what she had seen and done, the mother would answer them absently with monosyllables and murmurs.
A few moments later she felt her skirt being pulled and heard: "Mother!" the woman nodded and muttered a word, she felt a tug on her skirt and heard again "Mom!" she answered him again briefly and continued unperturbed to fry the potatoes.
Five minutes passed, the child grabbed the mother's skirt and pulled her with all her strength, the woman was forced to lean towards the child, the child put his hands on the mother's face, brought it close to hers and she said:
– Mom, listen to me with your eyes!
Listening to someone with your eyes means telling them: “You are important to me”. All important things pass through the eyes. Perhaps that is why it is said that the eyes are the mirror of the soul.
