Life is Special and you only have one of them

Hey Everyone

Today is a very special day, especially for all the kids in the UK, as it’s Mother’s Day or Mothering Sunday whichever one you prefer to call it is a day when we let our mothers’ know how much she means to us.

Usually kids will cook and serve breakfast in bed for them, or a nice dinner out, families get together for those who live far away or have to work abroad, some will also bake cakes, present gifts, send cards and flowers etc… Obviously there are many more different ways to show how much our mothers mean to us.

Now it just happens that I somehow stumbled a really interesting YouTube Video which coincidentally fits in with this post.

The song is by a Romanian Teen Band called Blaxy Girls and song entitled Dear Mama. Now, the main reason I posted it on my blog is that the concept/story contained within this MTV certainly has a special important message of which I think everyone out there can appreciate.

The song demonstrates that how our mothers are always constantly thinking about us, are on the lookout, helping and supporting us when we most needed, nurturing and looking after us from birth to adulthood and beyond. And trying their best to protect us from danger. (Oh and don’t forget our fathers’ too, as they do the same too, except they try to act cool – lol)

So here it is:

I hope all those who have or will watched this video will appreciate that we should be grateful that we have mothers (and fathers) that are there when we need them most. Some people unfortunately have lost them at an very early age or were born without them and left at orphanages.

So okay, you’re wondering why should you listen to me as I’m no expert or in a position to advise anyone, but what I will say is that for those whose relationships with mothers (or fathers) are not too well, or you find them can be annoying at some time, or you hate them for something they did that you didn’t agree thus you had an intensive argument with them that you think can not be repairable. Step back and think again but from their perspective.

All they were trying to do was helping us in becoming a better person, investing their efforts into us so that our lives can be easier and not hard. Plus, hating or having a grudge against them is bad for health, both physically and psychologically. It’s like comparing to have a knot in a piece of rope.

So, just make an effort, untie that knot, try and rebuild that relationship with them, forgive them and let your ego go. Your parents have already forgiven you and they are just waiting for you to come back, and will always be there for you whenever you need them.

You only get one mother (and father) in your lifetime and so, don’t neglect them, only to regret later when they are gone. Plus it doesn’t cost much at all to say that you are sorry or that you love them. It might be quite hard for some to say any of the aforementioned phrases, but the thought will mean at lot to them personally and you will also feel happier too, because the knot in your heart has been untied.

I’m sorry if I have offended anyone and best regards

PS: Happy Mother’s day to both my mum and all the mothers out there in the World. For it be Without your continuous contribution, (as well as father’s too) we would not be here or become who we are today. Thank you!
