Motherhood
When a woman decides to become a mother, it is a decision that requires much thought and sacrifice. Her body will undergo many changes, both physically and mentally. It appears that the bond she is about to forge is so beautiful and special , it seems to offset the physical abuse her body will endure. The pain she will experience will be unbearable, yet they choose to conceive and undergo this treacherous endeavor. What is this mysterious driving force that compels her to make that choice?
All too often we take mothers for granted , feeling that it is their duty to nurture and care for us, when in fact it is their choice. We don't always realize the sacrifices that they make for us by giving up a part of their own lives, so that we may have a good foundation for our own. They are the builders of our beliefs , morals,love and much much more, teaching us family structure and values that will prepare us for life. They are the cornerstone of our existence and the driving force for our future .
The actual time we spend with them is but a small portion of our lives. Savor each and every moment, for there will come a time when their job is complete and they will release us into the world. Enjoy them while you can because someday they will be only a memory. Love them as much as you love yourself for they are a intricate part of us ,now and forever. When they are gone so goes a part of us.
There is no greater love on this earth than the love of a mother for her children . This gift of Love is from our Father in heaven who watches over mothers with a special concern, For he chose a special woman to bear His own Son, and carry the title of His Mother.
