Love at first sight

Being lost in the moment is the best definition of love at first sight. I’m not against love or something and please do not get me wrong. Yes, I do agree there will be sparks when eyes meet but it does not ensure a strong base which sustains for an entire life. However, the purest form of love can be found through a bond that was formed way beyond our existence and it’s the most powerful one; mother’s love. No matter how our physical feature is she’ll never judge those qualities and still carry and cuddle us always picturing us as the little baby who lets out a small yawn and goes to sleep with a smile on the face. 

She’s the wonder woman in reality and while saving the house from disaster she flies to our rescue even before the emergency siren turns up. Her instinct is very strong and being afar does not mean she let the rope loose but actually, it just got tighter so that she always has our back. It’s always no fun being away from her because she is the only person who will have full authority on our behavior and actions. Just one glare is enough to shut us and when we move a little further those will become simple reminders turning us into the disciplined child whom everyone emulates. When she’s angry the trailers will be her soul penetrating glares, her sudden silence, and some noisy clutters of pots and pans in the kitchen while the main picture is something very much awaited. I think everyone would have gone through this phase and I believe it’s just her way of saying “action speaks louder than words”.

However, below the strict face is a face which blossoms once she hears our laughter. Somehow, some take a very long time to understand that and let fear govern the entire process of accepting mom as a best friend. It’s not as easy as it sounds and I agree with that but when you do so it’ll be the best feeling whereby it’ll be an end for the game hide and seek. She deserves to know what we are up to instead of getting worried and being informed by a third party. So, let’s quit the search party idea and just confess the truth because it might be a painful NO or a sneering “WHY YOU WENT AGAINST ME!” but it’ll always be for the best. Her advises and advanced knowledge on how to tackle life skilfully always comes in handy and always think twice before going aboard on a mission impossible.

Moreover, when we start to enter adulthood that’s when she will start to solely depend on us indirectly. Aging might not take a toll on her but the trust and believe she puts on her reverts to us where we will become the ears most of the time. Take pride in that because one day we will be like her depending on our children not to be the torch in a dark cave but just some friendly talk that assures that the bond is still strong. We will be eagerly waiting for the answer to our confusion and questions but she will insist on hearing her out first. So, let’s just be the gentleman/woman which she raised through sleepless nights and early mornings without an ounce of regret or tiresome. It’s time to put a smile on her face and give the peace she deserves. No more crying over spilt milk but time to make sure the split milk is turned into a worthy stain instead of bringing more misery.

However, apart from all that, there’ll never be the denial of us being a child in a small part of her heart. The same little fingers which she kissed will never change. She will hold it till her death bed and when distance tears apart she will keep the memory alive by taking a look at the cute mittens in the drawers. She has her own way of managing the past and present without shredding tears, yup truly she’s an iron lady that is defined by God beautifully. Success or victory comes with our parent's silent prayer and blessings especially a mother who devotes her time for her children by just letting the wall clock instruct her what to do and her internal clock does the countdown for the child to return home. She’s the best gift from God and there’s no need special time to express gratitude and it can be done like how she does by placing a kiss on your forehead whenever she thinks of giving one.

For those who are missing her absence, I salute you guys out there because I know how painful it would be to lose the warmth and the smiling face that awaits our return. But somehow we have to pull the forward gear and wipe the silent tear. The heart will be stabbed by a knife every time you recall the special days and disappointment will be clear. Yet don’t turn down the invitation from happiness because she lives in your happiness. Don’t let down the soul in heaven by crying but cherish the memories and live up to her sayings. Fulfill her wishes and throughout life’s journey, she’ll be there for you as your guardian angel in disguise.

So, to all the moms around the world and in heaven as well hopefully it’s not too late for a mother’s day wish and personally, thank you for bringing in wonderful souls and making the world a beautiful place to live. Lots of love. ❤❤
