Mother's Day was celebrated throughout the world yesterday.It's to pay tribute to mothers for everything they have done.There is no doubt that our mothers have done so much for all of us but do we need that one special day to show how much we appreciate them? Once a year to show our mums how precious they are? Mothers should be appreciated every day and in so many ways ,not just a dinner and maybe gifts of flowers.
There is nothing that will make a mother more happy than to have her children or grand children around her .Despite the noise ,despite the hassle which such gatherings usually bring mum is never happier.To see her children grow into useful adults and abide by all that she has taught them makes mum feel that all the effort is worthwhile.
Caring for her and loving her even more when she is down and out makes the spirit of mother's day ever more so precious.The Filipino saying"My mum, may she always be what I expect,but yes or no she will always be my mum" tells us a lot.
No need to wait for Mother's Day to show how much we appreciate our mums.Do it every day, a nice word , a little gift ,a little thought would mean so much more than the commercialized Mother's Day Dinner.
