For All the Mothers

So I've walked around the wide world(via internet of course) and I return to make my usual but random post. So I've been going through this jobless phase and it seems even employers have conspired to keep me that way. Since when has it become a prerequisite for someone to pay money for a job or to give away your dignity to secure a position? If I had the guts I would name and shame the culprits for all to read. This however still remains a story for another day.

Exactly one month ago today, we rushed my sister in law to hospital and after along theater procedure a beautiful baby girl was brought into this world, albeit a few weeks too early. And we were certainly not prepared for the news we got about the baby's complications but we still took it in our stride. Through the one month of admittance my sister in law put a brave face as she nursed my niece back to health.
In this weekend as we mark Mothers' day worldwide I would just like to take the time to recognize all the mothers out there who have been there for us in ways that can never be fully thanked for, for all the prayers whispered for us under their breath and the silent driving force that enabled us to get to where we are.

There is no way that a mother can be fully appreciated but all we can do is just to let them know that we are who we are because they were who they were with us. They love, we love them back. And there is no other gift greater than this.

I love you mum.
