Her Words Hurt Him
Martin’s mother, who was fully unaware that he could hear her, pleaded with him to just give up and die at that moment. However, Martin refused.
But deep inside it had a deep effect on him because of her words. He described the experience as ‘a bit sad.’ “But at the same time, particularly when I went through all of the emotions, I felt nothing but love and compassion for my mother,” he stated on his book.
He Understood
“My mother often thought that she was not a good mother and that she couldn’t care for me. “One of the most difficult things for me was not being able to reassure her, ‘No, you are doing fantastic,'” he concluded.
Martin has forgiven his mother for saying that since he understood she didn’t want to harm his feelings in the first place. With the passage of time, he discovered some creative methods to keep himself engaged.
