Mother’s day

Here comes another day of the year, a very bonding day - Mother’s day! With no doubt, everyday is mother’s day as they are loved by their daughters and sons. Still, one day dedicated for mothers is definitely necessary in this fast paced world. This current world we live has lots of invisible problems and issues in it. It’s actually a corrupted one. When it comes to personal lives, almost 8 out of every 10 people’s lives are screwed up. Not that the other 2 have no problems, but it’s that they realize and confront it together.

In this type of world we are living in, this one dedicated day meant to remember the selflessness and unconditional love of an individual is not at all enough. Both these qualities are on top of everything as they are the toughest of toughest. A mother does it every day and every minute to her children however old they have grown up. I know my mom and my friends’ too have come through the very hard way to raise us. There is a lady in Mumbai who is somewhere around 45 years old and runs house to house everyday to do domestic work – cooking, cleaning vessels, cleaning the house and washing clothes. I used to think this lady is greedier on money as she works for 5-6 houses per day and her monthly salary would be around 20k per month with no tax applicable. One day she never turned up for work followed by 15-20 days. Those days me and my friends were doing all these work on rounds. We realized what amount of energy is required to work like that and the money she earns is worth it. Suddenly, one day she came in and I had just asked what had happened. She broke to tears and started narrating her story. She has 4 daughters and a son. 2 of them had got married and the third one for whom she had been looking for a groom eloped with a boy from their neighborhood. I felt shocked to hear it and felt very bad for her. She was crying for over an hour. Her eyes showed the sorrow and the anger she had on her girl as she had eloped with the money and jewels including which was saved for the other daughter's marriage and the son's studies out of her hard work all through the years. 5-6 months later the girl came back but without any money or jewel in hand.

Mothers are like this – this lady started doing extra work everyday to earn more money for the 3 of them. She is not greedy here. She is selfless.

This mother’s day I dedicate it to all the mothers with more focus on the new mothers and to be mothers. You girls are the real stars of future. Nothing in this world without you! A very special wish to all my amazing set of female friends out there who have recently delivered baby, few who are expecting and to those who are getting married too. You are the parent of the next generation and there is a responsibility on you people. Not to forget, your partners are always there besides you in every step of yours to support and share everything equally. Altogether, you girls rock! Lots of love to you all...Happy mothers day!
