Was having an argument with my significant other about the significance of Mother’s day… No doubt he was right at the point that everyday should be a mother’s day.
But hey, how many times in a year do you plan to give her a surprise at 12 other than her birthday? How many times in a year to you take her out making her feel the importance of her relationship with only “YOU”? How many times in a year do you thank her not just for being such a wonderful person but for being a wonderful ‘mother’?
We often appreciate what she does for us but it is only on this day when we CELEBRATE what she does.
Rejoicing not HER but her MOTHERHOOD, a state that happened when YOU happened. It is not her Birthday… it’s a kinship that took place only because you were born or you exist. And that is no less than a birthday to her.
Her selfless upbringing, her patient attitude, a parent in her. She was never like this before and she is never like this without you. She is like this only after you and only with you.
Then why not give this relationship a special day and make that woman feel proud of being a “mother” that entire day. Make her count all the amazing things that she did and does for you. Saying that we can do it every day is impractical. Again I would say, how many times in a year do you treat her for being SIMPLY A “MOTHER”….
