As A Mother, for My Mom!

In life, you couldn't please everyone around you.



Some appreciate what you do, some couldn't understand you. There maybe a few who salute you, a number envy you or more of them don't just know the real you but are good at judging you.

Im aware of all these.. Though not for myself but for my MOTHER.

My mother is tough. She walk through life with all her strenght. Behind her sharp tongue that nags out all her complaints, is the heart of a MOTHER that I would always forlong and not ever wanted to get replaced by anyone else.



She got her weaknesses and Iam sure we all have. Because of it, she fell out in numbers of times. But it doesn't move my heart on loving her.
Her once fall of defeit is a pain to our family. I never give a damn. I just count on her great things done and just pray for that heart-tearing part of us to all get healed in time.

I have learned to weigh things in balance. To justify her means, to give my ownself explanations on how things happened.. To what extent she had her will to hurt us.

I did not speak, I avoid to ask. All the answers to my questions were just from my own speculations. If in this way, I could avoid to hurt her. She is full enough on bearing social bitter feedbacks. She had been such a community outcast and I know if its not for us, she could not remain tough.

Now, we're moving on. Forgetting things behind.
A spot remained and cannot in any way be removed.

But for me..
She is still my mother.


Im in no place to discern her. I awe her my life and that is all that it takes.

Iam now a mother and this makes me value my mother more. Iam not vocal on saying how I feel, but through writing this, to the whole world Iam saying..
I Love You ho Inay!

    Nice, sweet, and candid, Leslie.

    I follow your drift because I know what are you talking about even if the details were different.

    The bottom line is, the love that can reach over hurdles we, as human beings, can raise in our weakness.

    I am not a Mom, of course, Nature decreed that, but I can enjoy, vicariously, the delight of having a child.

Raising Smart Child: Get Started Through Visual Stimulation

Raising smart child is a tough but challenging job for parents. I'ts like planting vines on a wide vacant plot. The little vine sprouts were the children and parents were that posts beside each vines where it would use to climb straight up in later time. Sounds the same as with raising a child in the basic manner yet those for raising smart child is different. People were amazed by a smart kid and always wanting their own child to be like one. I've never heard somebody or if there were some but maybe rare who says they never wanted a smart child of thier own. Being smart is like an achievement that certifies self-worth and innate power. Genes takes the most credit of it all as it carries the heredetary aspects of human that makes smart characteristics bearable by the next generations of his blood. There were parents who always wanted their children to be an excellent one. But "excellent" sounds too much that they would rather call it "smart". It was the...
