I’m privileged to be called a graduate, from one of the most
renowned universities in Nigeria. As a student, I was quite on a low-key, you
know, most of the time, was always on my own. I was basically an observer,
having few casual acquaintances. While a student, I observed certain group of
people (students) and their behavioral pattern. These people include:
JOYS OF MOTHERHOOD?
Often times, it is said that children are the joy of their
parents; they fulfill the joy and dreams of their mothers. The very day a
mother gives birth to a child, her dreams of motherhood are complete. For her, it’s
an honor and pleasure to be called mama, mother. Although,
JOYS OF MOTHERHOOD?
Often times, it is said that children are the joy of their
parents; they fulfill the joy and dreams of their mothers. The very day a
mother gives birth to a child, her dreams of motherhood are complete. For her, it’s
an honor and pleasure to be called mama, mother. Although there are exceptional
cases, where a mother gives birth to a child and if that child is not the
gender she expected, she is filled with so much hate and anger for the child,
which sometimes lasts for a lifetime.
These children grow up, going through different life stages
and growth stages. Some of them bring a mixed feeling of sadness and joy to
their mothers, some of them don’t get to grow up with their mothers, some turn
out to be an exact opposite of what their mother taught and thought them to be.
When a child turns out good, he/she is the child of his/her
proud father. But bad child is the mothers sorrow and pain. And I wonder why. Everything
is all perfect and smooth. It runs non-stop. But we must pause and stop, think
of some or all the things that could happen if things were dull and dim. Not
all smooth; good life turning bad. Its beyond perfection. You know we are
better than we say. You just need to explore and discover what is within you.
Explore the virgin land (talent) of your life. Every day is a good day (or a
bad day), pending on how you make it happen and live it out.
Quickly not slowly, you must not keep crawling, but run,
run, run and fly. Soar beyond the strength you imagine is yours, and see if it
won’t carry you far, higher than you can go. The place is set and the time is
always right. It is all there, it is all bare, it’s all been said. Being a
mother is a whole BIG DEAL. And that is why, God made women strong beings –
this is not about feminism- Mothers live their lives for their children. My
mother would always say, “a woman can walk bare and naked, for the sake of
their children”. When you scrutinize it, you will know it’s true. Of course
again, there are cases of exemption, where the father plays the perfect role of
a mother.
This little, I can think of; so much less of what was
intended. Yet I plea, that you make motherhood joyous; your mother be made
happy at all times by your decisions and actions.

Stay encouraged.
