What a wonderful relationship it is! Encompassing all the divinity and humanity in itself. Boundless and limitless.

I have often heard my friends narrate their stories of their childhood. Some quoting that their mother was very busy and hardly had any time for them. More often I wonder if their mother was really that busy or did they miss understanding her care. But, I must admit , I am one of those lucky daughters who has been pampered, and taken care of every moment of life. My mother has been a mentor, a teacher, a guide, philosopher and the most important a true friend, a soul mate. She has been the one who showed me the way in life, helped me tread on it. She heard the unspoken, conveyed the unsaid, averted the worst and prayed for the best.

Her pure love made me realize that I could be loved as me. It inculcated a confidence that I could naturally be me always. That was the first great step in the journey of life. Inculcating the confidence to carry on as self is the best gift of parents to the child, and I am proud I was blessed to receive this gift.

I have enjoyed every moment being her daughter and I have respected her as none else in the universe.

Be it moments of pain or moments of pleasure, be it anytime she has always been there to share. To share the laugh or wipe the tears. Every time I turned for someone to support or help I found her there waiting for me. Ready to render her hand. Its inexplicable, how easily she could turn every situation into an occasion to be enjoyed, to be learnt.

How dearly I pray that God, give me strength and wisdom to be like her. If I am able to imbibe even an iota of her virtues, my daughter too, will one day be proud to have a mother so good.
