one day a boy sleeps and dreams. In his dreams, it is as if everyone can see the shape of heart in the chest of others including his own heart. At first glance, he was very admiring and amazed by this atmosphere. Then, the boy turned his eyes to his own chest, he was very proud when he saw his heart pink and whole shiny. "The perfect heart" he said, "Unblemished and spotless".

Then he stepped out. He began to observe the hearts of the people around him. Some are radiated as beautiful as hers, there are wounds, some big, some small, and so on. "Wow, incredible ..." he said again. The boy is increasingly convinced that his heart is the most perfect because he does not see there is a heart more beautiful than hers.

The boy's gaze was stunned when he saw an elderly woman using a headgear. The old woman barely looked her face. The old woman was very big hearted but shapeless. The boy wondered why there were so many holes in her heart. He walked over to the old woman and asked her.

"Why is your heart like that, why not just as perfect and beautiful as mine?" He said showing off.

The old woman replied, "Maybe it's because you're young and you do not really understand the world."

The old woman continued, "Every time I love someone, I take this heart out and give it to her. Similarly, if I help people, there are always fragments of heart that I share with that person. In the past, when I was young and hanging out with many friends, my heart was sliced ​​up because I had to share a lot of friends. When I started getting married and having children, my heart was almost cut off to understand my husband and take care of a child. "

But there was a time when people also started sharing my heart with me. They also learn to slice their hearts to cover every wound in my heart to pile up, which is why my heart is several times bigger than your heart, even if it is not shaped anymore. Indeed, not all want to do so, that's why there are still many gaping holes in this heart. Now, whose heart is more beautiful? my heart or your heart? "

The boy was stunned for so long. He began to realize that the old woman's heart was far more perfect than his heart. The cuts, the defects, and the many patches in her heart make her more beautiful and bigger than his heart. Each hole as if talking about love and sincerity in the life she lived. For a moment, the boy began to study the old woman's face. He was startled when the old woman turned out to be his own mother.
