"The problems and accomplishments may occupy much of your time and thinking... yet, the big issue is that you are." Oh, this is really an important thing to think about. Basing on these words, a question came into my mind, "Am I really doing something worthwhile in the eyes of God and in the eyes of the True Parents?"

I remembered one happening many months ago; my daughter came home so sad and so uninspired. I called up immediately the school director to ask whether something is happening in school because of her melancholy attitude. The school director told me that her grades went down and just wanted to draw all the time. I said to the school director that it's not possible because she's always doing good in her studies.

That day I didn't go to work purposely to spend time with my daughter. I started to talk to her. Almost with tears, she said, "Mama, it's nothing, don't worry, I can handle this." But since I knew that something was wrong, so I really tried in a gentle way to encourage her to confide what's really bothering her.

I told her, "My daughter, Mama is not just your mother, I'm you're friend, too. Mama will not get angry whatever you'll tell me, I love you honey, so you can tell me anything." And then she said, already with tears, "Mama, I don't want to bother you with something because I don't want you to get worried with me. Mama, you have already a lot of things in your head. Many people were calling and talking to you, all just problems! That's why I don't want to give you more problems."

When she said this, really I couldn't hold back my tears, I hugged her and said, "Oh, my daughter, thank you for the good and loving heart you have, never you should think this again. Please remember that Mama will always give priority to you and your Papa. If my job or my mission will be a reason of lacking time to be with you, then I'll quit so I can truly give you all my time." When I said this, she started to open up and later we resolved her problem and she started to get good grades again in school.

My family is very important for me, if they're happy and contented, I felt inspired and confident doing things. They're the fulfillment of who I am, they kept me so alive and more true to what I'm doing.

Please let us think seriously what are our priorities in life and start to work on the most important one.
