Ever since the day I was crafted in my mother’s womb, my mother’s heart and hands have both assembled to flood me with such abundant love. Not only that, she has also sacrificed so much for her loved ones and has always, always been on the lookout for those around her. Therefore, I chose to depict by beautifully loving mother, as she has undoubtedly played one of the biggest influences in my life.
