A MOTHER, A JEWEL.

A mother is not just a woman that has procreated, this word has more to it than it purports. The love of a mother is the sweetest thing a child could ever ask for, as unquenchingly intense as always. A mother is an invaluable gift from God. Don't be astonished at the extent a loving and responsible mother would go just to see a sparkle of joy in the eyes of her child. Mothers dream come true when they see their child contented, comfortable and always wreathe in smiles and are the first to be happy when their children actualize their dreams and aspirations.

A mother's love knows no bound, as it breaks all boundaries for her child's sake. The hard work, patience, unrelentless prayers accompanied by encouragement from a mother is what gears and sustains us the children to our purpose in life. A mother would move heaven and earth to protect her child from harms way as she would not mind putting her life on the line to exonerate her child from looming danger. They endure pain, heartbreaks, despairs, anxieties and inconveniences silently just to pose strong for their children, but inwardly they are really hurting.  They loathe to look weak and vulnerable to their child because they know they are their superheroes, and what do superheroes do?...yes always win and put smiles on peoples faces.

What is a tree without roots? A bird without a feather?  A mother derives her strength from just the thought of the good, successful and fulfilling life she ardently envisions her child will live in the future. She would do anything to make sure her child does not go through what she went through growing up, because it was not that pleasant in the least. No one could ever play the daunting roles of mothers in our lives, they just fit and deliver so perfectly like no other because we were destined to have them as mothers.

I always imagine what my life would be like without the woman I have as a mother. And we mostly  count our blessing and thank God for our luck. Relatively, others have mothers who are not mothers sadly, you get what I mean. It would be ungrateful on our side not to appreciate these rare species. Venerate them because they are so worth it, not forgetting prayers too, so they live to see and enjoy what they nurtured and have brought to life. Their plight must instigate and propel our success. We have to be on the look out for their constant, beautiful smiles, in their old age or when they are incapacitated, we should never neglect them but rather make them feel like the queen they always are. If you have a woman playing a mother figure in your life, hold on to her tightly, they are rare gems and priceless jewels. Don't ever trade her smile for anything in the world.
