I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. Seeing what Mother was doing, I thought that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.

My mother was a kind person, who always showed her love on me in action. However, as a little girl, I only wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. But such talks never happened. I was sad about it and often rude to her, eager to start a new life somewhere else.

When I had my own family, I came to understand mother's love. So I wrote to mother and asked if she'd forgiven my rudeness. Then, I posted the letter and waited for her answer, but it never came. I felt disappointed and slowly didn't care too much about it.

Years later, during mother's final illness, she left some things for my sister and brother. "But the desk," she said in a weak voice, "is specially for Elizabeth." When I cleaned the desk---her present for me, I found a one — page letter inside, folded many times. It was the letter that I wrote years ago.

Then, tears came down, “Oh, dear mom, you've chosen the silent act to show you did forgive me and always be proud of my writing. Thank you for your silent love. I love you forever!"
