A creator, a nurturer who sacrifices everything for the sake of child. When a child is born,
every mother feels as if in a court of always being Judged of their nurturing. There is a always
a guilt, ahh... correct word self guilt of proving everyone right and giving Justification of her
actions. When a women chooses a career over a child, she is burdened by all the blaims that
comes from mostly unknown. But she herself knows that there is a guilt within her that
stays with her all the time of not being by her child. When we talk about a child, it passes
through various stages. First stage is Infant/Toddler. Infant/Toddler is a stage when a
child needs a mother the most. This is the time when a child and a mother bonds. Second stage
is when they start going to higher schools or colleges. That time child needs friends much more.
And at last is the stage when they want to settle down in life. At that moment, they needs
capital (money). The reason of describing the stages is nothing but highlighting a small part
when a child needs your attention. so, why for such a small span a mother has to sacrifice
everything. Her body, career, priorities. Her whole identity vanishes. When we will go through
a women stages She is been through a lot. A constant pressure through family, society often lead most of
them under depression that they are themselves not aware of.
The reason I Wrote this today was It is indeed a fact Mothers love for her kids are unconditional, unmatched
but one must never loose her identity. Kids are smart. They grow beautifully as per their environment and they
started engaging themselves as per their mothers engagement.
This is to all the mothers- Please love yourself.
