I had expensive dinners.
I stayed in luxury apartments.
I traveled in first class.
Everything was wonderful for a while.
But the truth is:
Nothing compares to the care of your parents.
Making sure your mother never worries.
Real luxury is not in the dinner bill,
or the view from the luxury apartment.
But in paying off your parents' mortgage.
Ensuring they live a comfortable life.
Making sure they don't have to work from eight in the morning to five in the evening.
Giving back to those who raised you.
Because luxury fades away. Family lasts forever.
