The mother and her two kids were in the middle of a nighttime stroll when suddenly, the earthquake's violent tremors stopped them in their tracks. The mother, sensing danger, immediately grabs her children and brings them into her embrace. She continues to hug them tightly, nearly losing her balance but managing to stay upright. 


Though it is a given that any mother would do the same for her children, this woman's maternal instinct, which shows that she clearly values her children's lives over her own, is a moment that has touched many people's hearts.
