Weddings are intended to be joyful occasions, full of love, and bringing families together. Imagine being pulled between what you’ve always known and what your fiancé’s family expects. That’s how one individual found themself.
They grew up with their single mother, who worked very hard to care for them. Life was simple but satisfying. Then they fell in love with someone from a wealthy family. Things became problematic when their fiancé’s family refused to have their mother attend the wedding.
My mother raised me on her own when my father departed. We were living paycheck to paycheck. I recall mom coming home late at night, fatigued from her two jobs, but always finding time to prepare me dinner and help me with my homework.
Despite the trials, Mom never complained, always smiling as she worked endlessly to provide for us. She’s an industrious woman who leads a humble lifestyle.
At the same time, her fiancé comes from a completely different family.
