Why Do I Feel So Emotional When I Think About My Parents? || Graded Reader

Описание: This video is for me — the version of myself who feels unexpectedly emotional when thinking about my parents. I clicked because sometimes, even without a clear reason, my chest feels tight when I remember their faces, their voices, or the way they used to call my name.

In this graded reader, I listen to a calm, slow, and reflective story told in clear, simple English. The sentences are carefully structured, making it easy to follow while still expressing deep feelings. It allows me to improve my English without feeling overwhelmed.

The story explores a quiet question: why do I feel so emotional when I think about my parents? Maybe it’s gratitude I never fully expressed. Maybe it’s guilt for not visiting enough. Maybe it’s the realization that they are growing older, and time is moving faster than I want it to.

As I listen, I hear natural English phrases like:
– “I didn’t notice it before.”
– “I took it for granted.”
– “I wish I had said thank you more often.”
– “I suddenly felt tears in my eyes.”

Through this story, I practice:
– Listening comprehension in slow, clear English
– Vocabulary about family and emotions
– Past tense structures for reflection
– Expressing gratitude and regret naturally

The language is gentle and realistic. It doesn’t blame. It doesn’t dramatize. It simply describes small memories — a meal together, a simple question, a quiet sacrifice — and the emotions that appear later when I finally understand their meaning.

I can listen during a calm evening, while commuting, or before sleeping. The story gives me space to reflect and improve my English at the same time.

Because sometimes, the emotions I feel about my parents are not weakness.
They are love — becoming clearer as I grow older.
