Raising Children In God's Will (131) Chapter 2. Children's Love and Parents' Love Section 4. Love of Parents
7) The Sphere and Depth of the Love of Parents - 4
To parents, children are everything. When I was in the Hung-nam prison, it took twelve hours to get from Hung-nam to Jong-ju by train. In order to get a pass to go there, my mother had to wait before the communists every day.
And I was known the champion of beating the communists, so many of the leftists hated me and I guess many of them bothered her about bringing things to me. But even in these circumstances, my mother went through all sorts of hardship to visit me once a month.
When she came, she prepared all sorts of things like the powder of roasted grain, thinking that I am hungry and suffering. Well, do you think there was plenty of food in North Korea?
I know there was not, but in this difficult circumstance, my mother would prepare food and bring it to me. When the prisoners met the visitors, about 30 people met them, and there were prisoners who were often visited by their parents, whereas there were some who were never visited.
