在一个阳光明媚的下午，妈妈和闺女坐在院子里聊天。闺女脸上带着一抹不易察觉的忧愁，妈妈注意到了她的情绪变化。
“咱们去看看花园吧？”妈妈试图转移她的注意力。她知道，只要是能让她心情好转的事情，就都应该尝试一下。
闺女点了点头，跟着妈妈走向花园。他们停在了一处盛开的紫藤旁，那里的香气正适合缓解心情。这时，闺女突然止步，她低头看着脚下的泥土，用手指轻轻地刨着那块泥土。
“怎么了？是不是脚疼？” moms asked, her voice soft and gentle.
“没有啊，是别的事。” 闺女回答得含糊。
Mom looked at her daughter, she knew that there was something bothering her. She took a deep breath and gently said, “如果你愿意的话，我们可以一起坐下来谈谈。你想说什么吗？”
Mandy hesitated for a moment before nodding her head. They sat down on the bench under the shade of a big tree.
Mandy took another deep breath before speaking out what had been bothering her all day long. "I just feel so lost right now," she said with tears in her eyes.
Mom listened carefully to Mandy's words without interrupting or judging. When Mandy finished talking, Mom reached out and hugged her tightly.
"It's okay to feel lost sometimes," mom said softly into Mandy's ear. "But remember that you are not alone."
"Mama... I don't know what to do..." Mandy whispered as she buried herself into mom's embrace.
"You can always come to me," mom replied reassuringly. "And everything will be fine soon."
As they talked more about their feelings and thoughts, the sun began setting behind them casting a warm glow over the garden.
After some time passed by, Mandy seemed to have lifted off some weight from off of shoulders.
"Thanks mama... I think I'm going to be alright." She smiled weakly but genuinely at last.
"Of course you are sweetie!" Her mother replied with pride in those three simple words - 'You'll be fine'.
