Motherhood, the noblest job of all
- By Vishü Rita Krocha: It isn’t just biology that enables one to become a mother. Motherhood is so much more than the ability to conceive whether it is through natural means or with the help of science. It is about unconditional love that leads to making sacrifices and being selfless all the time. Motherhood supersedes every other role that she plays in life.
- As Karl Lagerfeld says, “The only love that I really believe in is a mother’s love for her children.” The maternal instinct seems to be universal. Everywhere across the world, a mother’s love is universal. It isn’t defined by what or who she is. It doesn’t matter if you are rich or poor; it doesn’t matter in which part of the world you were born, a mother’s love is everyone’s first experience of love.
- And it isn’t just the first experience, but a love that you will not find anywhere else or experience with anybody else in your lifetime. Mothers do so much more than the society or individuals can imagine. For them, their children always come first although this is rarely acknowledged.
- Regardless of the circumstances mothers are in—during pregnancy, at childbirth, at the various stages of raising a child, whether she is in a poor mental and spiritual state, or whether she is financially and intellectually deprived, mothers ensure that the best out of that circumstance is given to her children.
- That, she sacrifices her own wants, needs and desires for the welfare of her children is taken for granted a lot of times. Mothers are barely recognised for all the things that they do with love. They ever only do every single thing with nothing but love for their children.
- Maybe, it is only on occasions such as Mother’s Day that they are remembered and showered with gifts. But a day isn’t enough to say or show how grateful one is for bringing you into this world and nurturing you all along.
- Mothers have their own struggles and the power of resilience each mother has, is remarkable. And it should not just be on Mother’s Day that they are thought of so fondly, or when mothers are gone, that they are remembered even more. It should not be at their graves that the unconditional love of a mother is realised, with guilt and pain. But mothers deserve all the love we can give everyday.
- How to raise a child is not taught in schools, and for many mothers also, it may be trial and error. But despite it all, the unconditional love of a mother is always there. It is unmistakable. No matter the country, tribe, race, or time, a mother's love is unmistakable. And that is what remarkably stands out about motherhood regardless of the situation or circumstance that they may be in when raising a child.Being a mother is also a full-time job although it often goes unnoticed. It is a lifetime commitment that mothers embrace and choose to take on without any reservations. With excessive overtime hours of working that is hardly acknowledged, being a mother is truly the noblest job of all. To raise another human being and help them reach their full potential in life, is something that the society should not take for granted., Motherhood, the noblest job of all | MorungExpress | morungexpress.com
