Mom never had a nonchalant attitude about anything ever.
Things that didn't seem to matter mattered a great deal.
One instance I had broken the top of the blue radio many years ago.
Praying that Mom wouldn't find it out did.
Confronted me with it and asked me what happened.
Mom forgave me for the infraction but I did learn a lesson.
You never try to hide anything for it will be found out anyway.
Mom's attitude was not indifferent to where it didn't matter for it did.
The radio was a gift to my mom.
Taking care of it meant everyone should have taken care of it for Mom.
I didn't this one time and goofed to my chagrin.
Mom always had a kind heart for she was forgiving me of the time.
I learned differently than to do something like this again.
Be prudent and wise to not have a nonchalant attitude for it isn't worth it.
