“Mother is a kind-hearted friend at your own premises”
“Just as a mother would protect her son, her only child, with her own life, so one should develop towards all beings a state of mind without boundaries.”
Above mentioned remarkable statements of the Buddha profoundly characterize the inner personality of a mother.
It marks the Mother’s Day and millions of individuals celebrate it with gratitude in the globe today, the 10th of May 2020.
I thought to put into words in brief with respect to this special personality and a character although it is beyond words and terms.
Hundreds of mothers have articulated and disclosed their own stories, aspirations, wishes, purpose, dreams and objectives. All of them are relevant to their children. Every single mother wants to see her child as a shining star and a brilliant character in the world.
The pain, agony, discomfort, distress, and indescribable emotional afflictions and tribulations are unimaginable but kind- hearted mother has tolerated and endured all for the sake of her children. Still she does experience them
Unconditional love, compassion, appreciative – joy and equanimity are full in her heart.
We rarely hear some unacceptable reports which contrary to abovementioned fact.
Song writers, poets and other scholars have written thousands of assessments, appreciations, and accounts of gratitude of mothers.
Words are not enough and limited to clearly explicate the innermost qualities of a mother.
Their dedication, sacrifice, determination, commitment, devotion, love, affection, attachment, generosity, and friendliness are beyond reason and exposition.
Challenges, difficulties, pains, hardships, worries, complexities, and burdens are indescribable but, because of children they tolerate and endure multitudes of distressing matters and issues.
We all should understand the magnitude and the enormity of mother’s responsibilities and commitments.
When we were very young, all of us were very powerless and helpless.
We were incapable and unable.
Mother was there for us like a never departing shadow till we become capable and able.
Once late president John F Kennedy said:
“Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president, but they don’t want them to become politicians in the process.”
“God could not be everywhere, and therefore he made mothers”
(Rudyard Kipling)
May mothers be well, healthy, happy, safe and peaceful!
