---- YOU ?
The Maternal Instinct is an amazing thing.
Human mother is an indelible source of love and power.She is reborn in every child’s birth and bears pain beyond human tolerance. Pain is measured in terms of units called ‘del’ as we say ‘ml” for liquid and ‘decible’ for sound. A human body can bear only upto 45 Del of pain. But at the time of giving birth, a woman feels upto 57 Del of Pain. This is similar to many bones getting fractured at a time!
Some of the touching information about this indelible soul which I came across I would like to share with you on this day! - 09th MAY 2010
She was there every time you cried, when a baby…..
-YOU started growing !
She jumped with joy,
When you first stood up on your tender feet,
-YOU grew confident!
She celebrated with happiness
on your first birthday.
-YOU ate the cake!
She gave you sweets,
On your first day to School.
-YOU enjoyed the whole!
She bought YOU new clothes,
Instead of clothes for herself.
-YOU showed off to your friends!
She took you to the doctor,
When you were sick.
-YOU recovered your health!
She quarreled with her friend,
When you fought with her friend’s kid;
to prove you innocent & gave up her friend.
-YOU cared less for her loss!
She gave you her savings,
to buy your bicycle.
-YOU rode with pride!
She cooked your favorite breakfast,
On your first day to Office.
-YOU became independent!
She waited at the door
On your first Salary day,
only to seek God’s blessings.
-YOU already celebrated with your friends!
She blessed your love marriage,
When you came home married.
-YOU shared your love with your spouse!
She’s now old and lonely,
still thinking of YOU.
Remember! All that she had,
she gave it to YOU.
Show your love before you feel it is too late
THINK, for a moment!
How much she sacrificed for YOU.
The agony & pain she went through
all the years.
It was for YOU, only for YOU.
Give her your time, a bit of your love
for that is all she desires.
Tell her that you love her and care too.
She’s with YOU, no matter where are You !
My mom only had one eye. I hated her… She was such an embarrassment. .
She cooked for students & teachers to support the family.
There was this one day during elementary school where my mom came to
Say hello to me.I was so embarrassed.
How could she do this to me?
I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out.
The next day at school one of my classmates said, "EEEE, your mom
has only one eye!"
I wanted to bury myself.
I also wanted my mom to just disappear..
I confronted her that day and said, " If you're only gonna make me a
Laughing stock, why don't you just die?"
My mom did not respond….
I didn't even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because
I was full of anger.
I was oblivious to her feelings.
I wanted to be out of that house, and have nothing to do with her.
So I studied real hard, got a chance to go abroad to study.
Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own.
I had kids of my own. I was happy with my life, my kids and the comforts.
Then one day, my
Mother came to visit me.
She hadn't seen me in years and she didn't even meet her
Grandchildren.
When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I yelled at
Her for coming over uninvited.
I screamed at her, "How dare you come to my house and scare my
Children!"
GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!"
And to this, my mother quietly answered,
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I may have got the wrong address,"
And she disappeared out of sight.
One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house.
So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip.
After the reunion, I went to the old shack just out of curiosity.
My neighbors said that she died.
I did not shed a single tear.
They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.
"My dearest son,
I think of you all the time. I'm sorry that I came to your house and
Scared your children.
I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion.
But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you.
I'm sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were
Growing up.
You see……..when you were very little, you got into an accident, and
Lost your eye.
As a mother, I couldn't stand watching you
Having to grow up with one eye.
So I gave you mine.
I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my
Place, with that eye.
With all my love to you,
YOUR MOTHER"
I have Cherished every single moment with my mother and There's no substitute for her.
Thank you Mom for everything ; not for what you have done to me, but for the way you have done
- the caring, smiles that you have put into it. I am blessed to have you as part of my life.
Long live Ma!
