House is Never a Home Without a Mother....

They say “a house is never a home without a mother”. I really agree with this but I would like to add something in it, without ‘a real mother’. Isn’t that true? Heard it before but I overlooked it until today when someone shared it somewhere. In our cutting edge, digital and modern society now, anything is possible in a house. I’m not overthrown the fact that fathers can do marvellous job in fulfilling the duties as a parent but there will always be something missing somewhere in the heart of children who grown up without the love and care from that special someone, a mother.

Ask a full time mother and she will tell you what it’s like to be a real mother. I’ve asked one and this is how she described it:

“I might be naïve and outcast from the digital and career world out there but nevertheless I’m on 24 hours stand-by duty every single day of my life for the past 17 years without fail. If you ever underestimate the true duties of a mother, you must have not been there yet. May be I’m just a mother to many of you but I operate as the chef of the house, the referee to stop the children fight, the educator to teach them manners and homeworks, the driver to drive them around, the butler to keep the house in perfect order, the nurse to nurse them if there’s minor injuries, and so much more. Sometimes I can even be a pharmacist because I know exactly which medication the children needs. Let me also tell you this, I don’t have any leave to apply from and sometimes I feel like I can only have a break when I eventually breakdown.”

Read the phrase Monica mentioned above, what do you feel? Have you been under estimating your mother or wife duties? Without a mother, a home will never be as warm and inviting. Fathers are great individuals too but they hardly act as gentle and soft as mothers. I know this because I experienced it but I don’t blame it on my dad. I realized most dads are out there working everyday trying their best to provide more for the home. When they’re back from work in the end of the day, all they need is peace and tranquil! However, a home with children, I don’t really know how we can shut them sometimes. Oh! There’s no offence here, I just said it from my mind, if only there’s a multi-purpose remote control which can be used to mute them for just 10 minutes when you needed to, that will help.

Another thing that I know is, when you’re hurts, you can talk to your father and he will console you but if you go to mommy, she will hold you tight and shed her tears with you. Parents can never let anyone to hurts you but believe it or not a mother can go to a great length of extend to protect their children. So cherish your mom and don't even think that it is their responsibilities and take it for granted. Some mothers may choose to leave but most mothers choose to stay and hold on eventhough they know for sure it can never be easy. Big applauds to all the real mothers out there, without you the house can never turn to home. Also remember that charity always start from home. Moms, we all know that you plays a big role in shaping the future of the world.
