~ I know, Life is cruel, unrepentant, conditional and over conventional!
Perhaps, how can a little breath in my tiny chest hold and handle the untold colossal concerns.
I molded your finger lightly in my hands and got strength.
Holding things lightly instead of clutching them tightly is what you teach me again and again.
While with your unconditional open hand gives me an ability to give and receive freely. I lose the nature to stiff and gathered strong-suits.

~ Though with your significant presence, your salient gestures, soft touch, a smell so familiar, a forte of substantial tastes you create, I can never be tired of holding on you and your loveable clench.
Indeed, the miracle I seek is at your fingertips.
There have been the conditions of my life and yet so blessed to have unconditional Love of life from you.
~ You first created me in your womb and then recreated the series of miracles for me in everyday and daily routine.
~ You first created me in your womb and then recreated the series of miracles for me in everyday and daily routine.
At first you held me first steps and seized me so close…though you still holding me tight yet helped me to fly high. “Indeed I was a caterpillar sacred to see the world was weird, you gave me beautiful colorful wings to fly and adore the journey of life…”
Without your presence and support I wouldn’t have blossom the way I have. You are the spark..so be my radiance and my charm :)

Now when I could walk all fine in every path and chosen line, I sometimes wished to run away. Run and shun away from the tension, worries and uncertainties of life.
Then one day I read that there are two kinds of behavior of nature in human beings. It’s like; there is a huge difference between being worry-warrior and worry-warts.
-Worry-warts are the people who are inclined to worry unduly.
~ However, worry-warriors are one who fights against worries. They find solutions to very troubles. Some people are born worry-warriors.
Mommy, you are one of them.
There is no single anxious moment of mine not shared with my mom. I share as I get the best advice with many alternative ways and tips to tackle the pain. You love me with a genuine concern, are able to sense that something is wrong without being told. You work as a warrior. Fight against all odds and my humming thoughts. Yes! Only you can and you do it at your best!
~ Perhaps, moms’! At her best defending, promoting and protecting her child.
Even when you are not able to give me a solution…you offer a silent-prayer, which works all the time.
~ God listens to you very carefully and fulfills your wishes. After all, it is believed that ‘God could not be everywhere and therefore He made mothers’. Perhaps, He made mothers as His own replica and an extension of the sanctimonious soul.
Sometimes the issues are so incalculable that it might confine me, dull my senses, numbing me, bobbling my thoughts, a feeling to sink into vulnerability or just run away...
Yes! True, I prefer to run away...to seek you!
I claim you, mom to confide the truth. The confidence in your eyes does then, reflects in me as an aid to alleviate. And I soon recover my amity and discover the harmony. I like you say “Don’t hurry and don’t worry!”
Perhaps, there is no particular best time to tell you things and issues. The best time is wherever is, 'Now'.
And as we share together the good and the bad, the hopes and the dreams, the charming moments and the acute times, we are celebrating life. It is being together to result in doing the right things, making them momentous.
It is doing things together, yet leaving room for each to grow as an individual, respecting the decisions we indulge in taking. It is so amazing to see how you give me freedom to commit the mistakes and also give space to correct them.You have always trusted me more than anyone else. Your praises are far more than a criticism or reprimand.
~Happy Mother’s day.
Hope this letter brought bliss to you. Perhaps, it’s my way to return the radiance you have been giving me years round.
~ Love you so much for everything!

Hey Rachana,
ReplyDeleteYes, in a generalist way, your post is a perfect and apt tribute to mothers and motherhood..... It contains most of the required nuances and nostalgic moments in a mother- child bonding without any exaggeration or pomp. The warrior thing is innovative and you crafted it with the topic very well . Yes, as an agnostic i prefer mom to Dog, sorry, God.
I guess, the word limit has stopped you from spilling all the sparks... and it gets reflected in the degree of comprehensiveness when compared to your earlier posts in this genre. May be i wanted to read more from you on this topic as the concept of motherhood impacts and invokes me more than anything else in this world.
Segmenting more,
"You first created me in your womb....."
Except this line i agree with all the emotional logistics you have wonderfully expressed here though i do have few compounded apprehensions regarding few dimensions of the post which are quite concerned only with and only with me and my personal experiences and hence i don't think its relevant to write them here on this occasion.....I guess the blame is in my perspective and perception.
May be it would be better to put it in this way..
"You are quite luckier and blessed to have experienced such affection of motherhood in your life with factors like sharing, prayer, worries, unconditional love, strength, support etc..."
Anyway, keep expressing :)
All the best buddy ...
cheers
