“A woman who set aside her life for me. She has suffered a lot in what was a disastrous marriage. After getting beaten, when blood dripped from her forehead, I have often asked her why she bore it. I remember her telling me that she was willing to suffer for my sake as she was living for me,” read Gokul’s viral post, after being translated from Malayalam by various media outlets. He recalled the time, when he and his mother decided to leave their house. “That day, when I left the house with her, I had decided about this moment. My mother, who set aside her entire youth for me, has a lot of dreams and heights to conquer. I have nothing more to say. I realised that this is something that does not need to be kept hidden. Mother, happy married life,” adds Gokul.

Before sharing the post, Gokul was apprehensive, but he soon realised that there is nothing to hide. He even requested all those with “eyes of suspicion, pity and hate,” to not even glance at the post. Along with the inspirational post, Gokul also shared her mother photo with her second husband. Viral Video of Killer Whale Swimming With a Pod of Dolphins Alongside Fishermen’s Boat off Cape Cod Will Mesmerize You.
