My mother said , " Son , as far as I am concerned , nothing in this life now gives me any pleasure . I do not know why I am still here , since I have no further hopes in this world . I did have one reason for wanting to live a little longer : to see you become a Catholic Christian before I died . God has lavished his gifts on me in that respect , for I know that you have even renounced earthly happiness to be his servant .

Give answer the following question using evidence from the above passage: Why did my mother say that nothing in this life now gives her any pleasure ?
Because she has lost the will to live .
