Mothers Are Special

Ever wondered what life would be like without mothers? Without their care, love and affection; a house devoid of their traces in that place we call home. Without their tender, loving touches in so many tiny details of our lives.

A place dull without their constant badgering and questionings, without them to check on us, on our going out and coming in.

Without them to add warmth to a kitchen fire hearth; a homecoming without their presences to greet us or take us in; without them to begin a day; to wake up in the morning, devoid of their sweetness; a life without them, an empty life without mothers to fill goodness to our days!

It's their unconditional love that made us what we are today. And having them around is one of the greatest blessings we can ever ask for. They have always given us that charm, that smile, that confidence, that assurance that we will never be able to find elsewhere or in somebody else.

And yet, we may never understand the love they have always carried for us. That sacrificial love that goes beyond explanation. That same love that gave them the strength to stand for us, to put us before them in such loving ways, to go the extra mile just to provide us with our needs and so much more.

Mothers will always hold special places in our hearts. No matter how grown we are or regardless of where we have reached in life, they will continue to be the light in our moments of grief, the hope in our despair, and perhaps the only one in this whole wide world who will still be proud of what you are without thinking twice.

The strength of a mother always amazes me. How they take care of their children and raise them in the manner they should do. How, they are always there for them from the moment a child is conceived right up to the journey that the child has accomplished. It amazes me how they forgo their sleep simply for the sake of their child. How they wake up in the middle of the night just to calm their cries. That, at such odd hours, they do not mind doing it all over again and again, till a child is all grown and on his/her own.

It amazes me how they take such pride in their children's little victories! How mothers cheer for them when they take their first steps or say their first word. How they make sure their paths are clear when they are left out to explore their little worlds. How their hearts break to see them injured and their minds preoccupied with thoughts of their children always and always.

Mothers who never credit themselves for bringing up fine citizens of the society. It amazes me how, even years after their children settle down and get a life of their own, mothers will still think the world of them and be there for them, always with their words of wisdom and experience.

How they can never get enough of us, and put such love in our homes that we cannot begin to imagine our comfort zones without them, no matter how nagging they may seem sometimes. It's to them we owe all our respect and love. Because they gave us life that we cannot repay, because they love us just the way we are and have always loved us enough to reprimand or hurt us when we go the wrong way, and because there is just no replacement for a mother, there is no reason why we shouldn't hold her in our hearts with gratefulness. And indeed, always love and respect her for what she is.
