《如果时光能倒流，我想再陪妈妈吃一顿饭》
If I Could Turn Back Time, I’d Have One More Meal with Mum
以前总觉得，陪妈妈吃饭，是随时都能做到的事。
今天忙，就改天。
这个星期没空，就下个星期。
电话里的一句“有空再回去”，说着说着，就过了好久。
可妈妈的期待，往往很简单。
知道我们要回家，她会提早去买菜，记得我们爱吃什么，也总担心煮得不够。
饭桌上，她问工作顺不顺利、最近睡得好不好。
我们随口回答几句，眼睛却还看着手机。有些叮咛听过太多次，甚至还没等她讲完，就说：“知道啦，妈。”
直到后来才发现，最想念的，是她盛饭时的背影，是那碗热汤，也是临走前那句：“下次几时再回来？”
如果时光真的能倒流，你最想回到哪一天？
也许，只想回到一个普通的傍晚。
桌上有几道家常菜，妈妈坐在身边。
这一次，会把手机放下，慢慢吃饭，好好听她说话，再告诉她：“妈，你煮的菜，真的很好吃。”
我们都在努力把日子过好，也别忘了，为牵挂自己的人留一点时间。
还能相约的时候，就把日子约下来。
还能拥抱的时候，就多抱一下。
那句一直不好意思说的“我爱你”，也可以从一句“妈，这个星期我回来吃饭”开始。🤍
趁还能相见，把爱说出口。
别把想说的话，留到梦里。

We used to think there would always be time for another meal with Mum.
Busy today? Another day.
No time this week? Next week.
“I’ll come home when I’m free,” we’d say. Before we knew it, so much time had passed.
Yet Mum often asked for so little.
When she knew we were coming home, she would buy groceries early, remember our favourite dishes, and worry that she hadn’t cooked enough.
At the table, she would ask about work and whether we were sleeping well.
We’d give short answers while looking at our phones. Sometimes, before she even finished reminding us to take care of ourselves, we’d say, “I know, Mum.”
Only later would we realise how much we missed watching her serve the rice, having a bowl of her warm soup, and hearing her ask as we left, “When are you coming home again?”
If you could turn back time, which day would you return to?
Perhaps just an ordinary evening.
A few home-cooked dishes on the table, with Mum beside you.
This time, you’d put your phone away, eat slowly, listen to everything she had to say, and tell her, “Mum, your cooking is really delicious.”
As we work hard to build our lives, let’s make some time for the people who are always thinking of us.
While you can still make plans together, set a date.
While you can still hold them close, stay a little longer.
And if saying “I love you” feels difficult, you could begin with, “Mum, I’m coming home for dinner this weekend.” 🤍
While you can still be together, say what’s in your heart.
Don’t leave those words for a dream.
