MA – cannot live without her, even though all my life I lived thousands of miles away from her, there is always a closeness, a connection with her. It’s like MA is always there, right from being able to give you that comfort that you are being loved and prayed for, to being nagged about cleaning up my room and wearing the right stuff, to eating healthy (MA never ever believed that coke and ice-cream was the best breakfast for a 10 year old and upwards).
Have you ever noticed how a chicken will fight everyone in sight who try to go close to her new born? Similarly in any species in the world, humans included, you will realize that there is no force on earth, stronger than the love and protectiveness of a mother. She is the soft clouds that you can rest your head on when life tires you down, and she again is the rock wall that protects you from the evil elements of life. A thousand bullets on the battle field called life will crush you to the ground, but in her arms, her single smile, her gentle words of comfort can wash away those wounds, as strangely a blanket of love covers us.
Mother
Father's always been the hero, who grew up from rag to riches
Both in fortune and in soul
Was there to make sure that there was a meal on the table,
An example of a perfect gentleman, who stuck with goodness and yet bold.
A Mother is the source of love, the source of comfort and life,
Her role as creator, makes her a mother first and then a woman or a wife.
She is the power that gives birth to another human being,
She will love you forever, like no other human being.
This is just a song to sing in respect and in appreciation
To my mother and to every mother for being so pure and for the affection
For being the source of love that flows within every one,
For being the moon at night and dawn when a new day has begun.
In complete gratitude to the Almighty, for giving us all a mother. To every mother – for keeping us all in love. On a personal dedication, this is my mere words of love and gratitude to you Ma, my most precious and adorable one. Thank You. May God bless you and all the mothers in the world forever. Happy Birthday –Tagore Almeida-
