Parents are Parents. Honour vibrations are to flow from us continuously to our parents in spite of their weaknesses. The well-being of a person is closely bound up with the healthy state of the relationship with own parents. According to the fourth commandment, the Creator has willed that, after HIM, the creatures should honour their parents and those whom HE has vested with authority for their good. The strained relationship with either mother or father affects adversely all the other relationships of a person. Children owe their parents respect, gratitude, just obedience and assistance. In our vulnerabilities, especially of infancy and early childhood, parents were at our side with much love. Let our hearts be filled with gratitude. 'Filial respect' fosters harmony in family life. (Ref. CCC 2248 - 2251)
Prayer :
Thank YOU, dear God, for the precious gift of my Parents, who are unique and the best parents for the person I am. Let me not be foolish to compare or complain. I did not choose them for me but you perfectly blessed me with them. You never make a mistake. YOU poured YOUR love on me through them which I failed to recognize at times. Open my eyes to see the good in and through them and not to focus on their weaknesses.
