No relationship surpasses the bond between a mother and her child
TURBAT: This is to appreciate all those mothers who have spent their entire nights soothing and comforting their babies. Human life revolves around attachments and forming affectionate relationships.
However, no relationship surpasses the bond between a mother and her child. She takes care of us when we are vulnerable babies, and unable to fend for ourselves.
She puts her own life on hold and is always concerned about our well-being and safety, and is the only one in our lives who gives us all her time and energy without expecting anything in return.
At times she is strict, so she may protect us from harm; however she wants to celebrate every achievement of ours, no matter how small it is. Motherhood is physically and emotionally exhausting, yet a mother never gives up on her children. Her unconditional love drives her to sacrifice everything for them.
We can never pay back our mother for everything she does for us. However, this Mother’s Day we can promise to shower her with love every day and show her our appreciation for all the effort she makes for us.
