When we attended the holy mass earlier with my mama, I so loved the homily and the way the priest delivers it. It was about Mother Mary and her assumption to the heaven which is also called "Dormition". There are speculations that Mother has died due to the fact that she had been suffering from loneliness the time his son Jesus Christ was tortured and died in the cross. Actually, that was all I am thinking too as well. I was thinking that Mother Mary was really died due to the mourning she felt remembering his son's suffering from the cross.
But the truth is, Mother Mary was just fallen asleep and believed that Jesus carries her up into the heaven. She never died. Her body and soul has been taken by his son Jesus Christ to heaven. That's how much she loves her mother. In fact the priest relates it to a son or daughter who had been working abroad. When the son or the daughter gets the chance to have a stable job and life abroad, they called up their mother and get them into the place where they experience a better life because they want their mother to be happy and experience what they had been experiencing too. It just like Jesus, she gets her mother to heaven perhaps he also wanted her mother to feel the same way too just like what he felt and experienced in heaven.
Since then even until now, we children loves more our mother than our father. It is because mothers are mostly the one who sacrificed much just for her kids or children to have a better life. It is a lesson that most of our children nowadays especially the teens to remember to love and respect our mothers, after all what they wanted is for our good in the journey of life that we are about to start yet.
By way, here is the video of the said believed as the tomb of our dear Mother Mary.
