“Dear Woman, a Mother is the one who removes the thorns from one’s heart with a whisper of Love. She is the feather that floats you from a drowning sea and the bucket of Love with seamless boundaries.
At the moment you feel guilty for the mistakes you have done, resentful for what you haven’t, angry for what others did to your or sad for what you don’t have, simply lift your head up and walk up to a Mirror. Look at the person in front of you in the eye in that Mirror and say to her –
“For the times when you have been a Mother, for the millions of seconds when you have forgotten your needs for that of your child…
…for the days when you cried alone because you showered smiles at your baby,
…for the nights you awoke worried for someone else’s safety,
…for all that you have selflessly thought and done for your entire family,
…for the times when you haven’t cooked what you loved to fit the joy of the rest,
…for the times when your body hurt and you mustered the courage to go on and
…for a trillion of the billion seconds when you lived up to your duty to be a Mother, you deserve a shower of Love, a bucket of Hugs and Mountains of Flowers
…for you must know that you are not about what you sacrifice, what you feel guilty about, what you did not do right
…for you must care for yourself first, love yourself first, stop always putting the family first
…for you must start showing your children what love truly means, not sacrifice but filling your bucket, appreciating yourself, standing up for yourself, being true to who are and need, making powerful requests and drawing powerful boundaries from the irrational, sacrificial expectations others may have from you.
…for you deserve to be as much a human being as all others, for we must transform what being a woman means and show our children a new future
For today is that day like every other day when you get to Celebrate Who You are – a Mother. For you are the ultimate Angel in someone’s world, for you are the whole and the soul for them, for those little twinkling eyes and hearts you ignite with joy and hope every single day. For if you weren’t here, their world would be Dark and Lonely”.
And for that, just for that, Love Yourself Unconditionally. For you are the Divine, for you are a M-O-M! How lucky that you are, that I am, we are! For not a million dollars can win the innocence we experience every day, in the hearts of the purest, through the smiles of our little Angels.
There are only 2 entities one can pray to. One is God and other is a Mother. While God teaches us Godliness, a Mom executes it every second”. <3
