Interview someone — a friend, another blogger, your mother, the mailman — and write a post based on their responses.

For this post, I decided to interview someone very close to my heart—my mother. She has always been my greatest source of strength, and I felt her perspective would bring meaningful insights about life and happiness.

When I asked her what she considered the most important value in life, she instantly replied, “Patience.” According to her, patience is not just about waiting but about maintaining calmness when things don’t go your way.

She believes that many problems can be solved if we pause, reflect, and act thoughtfully instead of reacting in anger or frustration.

I then asked her about the happiest moments in her life. With a warm smile, she shared that her happiest days were when her children were born and later when she saw us achieving milestones in our careers and personal lives.

“A mother’s true joy is not in her own success,” she explained, “but in seeing her children grow into good human beings.”

When asked how she manages stress, her answer was simple yet profound: faith and routine.

She believes in starting her day with prayer, which gives her strength, and following a consistent routine that keeps her focused and balanced.

Finally, I asked her what advice she would give the younger generation. She said, “Value your family, never stop learning, and live with gratitude.

The world is fast, but your peace will come from strong relationships and contentment in small things.”

This short interview reminded me that wisdom doesn’t always come from books or experts; sometimes, it comes from the people who quietly shape our lives every day.

My mother’s words reinforced the importance of patience, gratitude, and faith—qualities that truly improve the quality of life.
