How Do We Truly Thank Our Moms for Their Endless Sacrifices?

Mom, how can we ever repay you for all that you have done?

Hi, so wonderful. We have this in one of our Tamil films where they say that since God cannot take care of everyone, he created Mother. All of us can never forget the song "Amma endrazhaikada uyir illeye" sung by the evergreen Yesudas in Mannan extolling the virtues of the Mother. God bless us all with the wonderful mothers!!! We can never ever repay a mother's affection and sacrifice.

And that's the best part about being a woman... I wonder how my mom sacrifices most of the things. For example, when she buys a box of chocolate - I have all the hunger to finish it at once, and for courtesy, I ask people around me if they need (I expect a NO).

I used to ask my mom why she never said that she wanted a share of it. (Not just chocolates... be it even a warm blanket on a cold night - she gives it to me saying that she is feeling hot!)

Today, when my nephew comes to me and asks for chocolates, I buy that for him and never expect him to share with me. Even if he asks with that cunning smile, I tell him "I don't want, dear." I feel happy that even I am able to be a little like my mom... somehow, that hunger fades away. It does not pain to carry him all night and put him to sleep... If I get a candy/chocolate, I am tempted to save it for him if he is around.

It's nice to be a woman; the love is so unconditional.

Dear Venkat,

Thanks for bringing back memories of a similar mother that I was lucky to have - God bless her soul - to give us that extra bit. She lived throughout her life and denied herself the small pleasures of life, but her joys knew no bounds because she gave us all she could.

Regards,
Colonel Jude

I don't have words to express my views regarding that, but truly I am about to cry because I don't have a mother. I lost her when I was just 7 years old.

So, dear, I request to all who have mothers, please take care of them.
