A mother who doesn\u2019t fret over failings and slights, who realizes her worries and anxieties are just thoughts, the continuous chattering and judgment of a too-busy mind. A mother who doesn\u2019t worry so much about being bad or good but just recognizes that she\u2019s both, and neither.

30. \u201cIn our country we call this type of mother love teng ai. My son has told me that in men\u2019s writing it is composed of two characters. The first means pain; the second means love. That is a mother\u2019s love.\u201d \u2015 Lisa See\n
