Thank you to the person who 'carries half the world'

(Baonghean.vn) - Behind the happiness and success of a man, there is always the shadow of his wife. The wife has "shouldered" more than half of the world so that her husband can flourish and shine... March 8 is approaching, this is an opportunity for men to "say" words of gratitude, "pay" part of the "debt" of love in life.

Mr. Nguyen Khac An, Principal of Vinh Technical Economic College:

Personally, I'm a bit lucky because March 8th is close to my birthday, and also the day my husband and I first met, so every year my family "combines" three in one, so every year there is both the "visual" and "sound" part: quite lively.

I often consider March 8th as an occasion to pay back a thousandth of my debt to my wife. Paying only a thousandth, how can I pay it all! We men owe women too much, the most terrible debt is indifference. Women sacrifice and endure, they do not know how to bargain, they are simple and forgiving… sometimes just a bouquet of flowers is enough to “clear the debt” of both principal and interest, which even men cannot do.

When my wife is soaking medicinal wine, I call my friends to come over and drink, while my wife is taking care of the food. When my wife cooks a pot of soup, I don’t even give her a word of praise. When my wife is sad at work, I don’t even bother to comfort her. When my wife is tired, I don’t even bother to ask her how she is. When I earn three dollars, I sometimes get excited and I bully her in all sorts of ways. Frankly speaking, we “use” our wives indiscriminately without any “maintenance”. Yet, my wife still works hard to be my wife. If I don’t owe my wife, who else do I owe?

Doctor Ngo Nam Hai, Head of the Department of Emergency Resuscitation and Anti-Poison, Vinh City General Hospital:

It is natural that medical professionals accept sacrifices for the love of their profession and for the responsibility to the health of the people. However, the sacrifices of the medical professionals' "backline" are truly great...

I myself work in the Intensive Care Unit for Poison Control, a special unit: There are many people with serious to critical illnesses who need long-term treatment. The work of the doctors and nurses in the unit is very stressful, often on duty 24/7. Patients, their families, and doctors never stop fighting for their lives... I often have no time for myself to spend with the sick, so I am often away from home, and have very little time to take care of my wife and children. My wife is the one who suffers the most when she takes on almost all of her husband's work. Even the little time she has for her family can be "cut short" at any time because a patient needs her presence.

To be honest, there were times when my wife and children were sick but I had to go take care of other patients. At those times, my wife quietly hid her sadness and loss and tried to overcome it, take care of the children, and teach them to be good. My wife often encouraged me to work with peace of mind. My wife's sacrifice is immeasurable. To me, my wife is the one who carries more than half of the world.

Player Nguyen Quang Tinh, Song Lam Nghe An Football Club:

The nature of football players' careers has kept us away from home for a whole year. After training, practice, then competition. During that time, on holidays or when there is something at home, when the children are sick, when the children go to school, when the children eat... we cannot be at home. At those times, we are also very sad because we cannot shoulder and share the daily joys and sorrows with countless stories, ageless, nameless work with our wives.

A footballer’s life is measured by transfer contracts. As for women who are mothers and wives, it is measured by hardships, sacrifices and disadvantages. Mothers and wives silently worry about fulfilling the tasks that children and husbands should do.

I always thank my wife for taking good care of our happy family, becoming a solid support system that helps me play well and complete my tasks with the team.

I myself am always aware of the disadvantages and difficulties of my other half; always yearning to be close to my family, to help my wife with housework. So, during my time off, I try to spend more time with my wife and children, doing housework as a way to make up for it./.
