Mother, the word that makes you feel confident, makes you
feel special and the most importantly makes you feel proud. Not only human
beings, even every species in this word has the highest place for mother in
their society. A Mother will do anything for her kid no matter what is the
situation and how much effort it require. She will have sleepless nights so
that her kids can sleep peacefully, she will have least food so that her kids
can have good food. She will be always available when kid is scared, worried,
hungry, ill or in any even minor problem.
My mother was no different from an ideal mother and I had
wonderful days of my life when I was with her for 20 years. I have learned
every manner of a civilized society from her and how to deal with different emotions
without letting yourself down. She was never ready to let me cry for something
that was in her control. She suffered insults many time because of my mistakes
and foolishness but she did never let me feel guilty, even she never allowed
anyone else to make me feel guilty.
She was my first diet expert. What I needed to eat and what I should
not eat, she had every expert advice with valid reasons. She would never let me
have something which might cause something bad to my health. She would prepare the
healthiest and tastiest food for me whenever I felt hungry. She would advise me
on what to eat in any party or gathering.
She was my first health expert. What is best time to wake up,
what is best time to sleep, when to do what that would make me healthy, all
expert tips she had and was following just to make sure I remain healthy in
every season. Even a small sneeze or cold would make her worried and she will
do everything to make me feel comfortable again. I still remember how I was hit
by tennis ball once on my forehead and she asked me to visit doctor for that
small thing. Mothers are never easy when it come to their kid’s health.
She was my first education expert. What I need to learn and
from whom I need to learn, all she was having expert opinion on. If I was getting
some wrong knowledge from someone, she was first person to correct me and
provide me the right information. Whenever teachers try to force me to learn something,
she was first to request them to go smooth on me and make me feel comfortable
in learning even tough things.
She was my first money expert. She would be making sure that
I knew importance of money and how to deal with it with the little sense I had
in my young days. She would buy me stuffs that were not costly but that were of
some good use for me and my brother. Someday she would give me enough money to
make me happier but only for small time before she would ask me on how to save money.
Mothers are always the first source of information and help
for their kids. They are ready to sacrifice anything just to make sure that her
kids are happy and prospering. A mother is only person who with all little
knowledge and resources she has will become the biggest support for her kid.
No language can express the power and beauty and heroism of
a mother’s love.” – Edwin H. Chapin
