At the dawn of every life, at the birth of every child, there is always a joyous thought that brings memories of care, affection and also pains and anxiety, but all add up to a poem of Love.
Every human being carries with him or her the seal of this Love and remembers the maternal tenderness which is very hard to remove from the heart.
Over
the years, even when our hair turns gray, there remains the distant memories
and the strong desire to see once again Her, who carries the affectionate
name of Mother. Her name is a fountain
of
peaceful thoughts, generosity, serenity and Love.
We always talk nice about our Mother and we always speak highly of her merits and good guidance and when She is gone, a veil of sadness surrounds our hearts.
There
is a legend that says that since God could not be physically present amongst
all His people at all times, he created Mothers to take His place. Looking
at the smile on the face of a Mother as she
looks
at her baby explains it very clearly.
If
we look at Nature we see so much beauty:
the
People, the Mountains, the Oceans, Rivers, Trees, the Flowers, Stars and
the Birds....
But
the Sun doesn't shine on anyone
more
beautiful than you, MOTHERS!
Thanks for filling this World with so much genuine love.
With sincere admiration, love and respect to all of you, Mothers.
