Mother and Daughter – A journey of a lifetime.

Many have envied the perfect bonding between a mother and daughter and fathers have not been an exception to it. Perhaps fathers are at times amazed to see how, just how this magic unfolds. The enchanting spell that creates a love lock between a mother and daughter. Being a mother of a beautiful daughter I define this experience as an unending journey. I feel so complete as a woman and I realise that it is my girl who breathes in life into my existence with her eye of appreciation, with her thoughts of concern, with her touch that assures me of her undying support and an affection beyond compare. Some things cannot be justified. That’s how I define a daughter’s love. At one point even the doting fathers realise that there are certain bondings that not only descend from heaven but create heaven on earth. That is what I feel when I think of being a mother of a girl. To have a daughter is to know yourself better. The love of a daughter is a nostalgic experience.....it caresses our soul, nestles in our heart and glows in our eyes. A daughter comes into your life to give you the lessons of unconditional love. Yes, every mother knows the bird will be flying from her nest someday and then there will be a VOID. Yet, there is so much of happiness in pain too, for that pain is of missing a part of your own self, which asserts how much you have loved her, how indispensable she is and how we as MOTHERS are strong enough to give away our very own existence, our dear DAUGHTERS with a BRAVE SMILE for the sake of their SMILES. In this GIVING the mother gives her ALL yet loses nothing as a perfect mother daughter relationship does not end.......the JOURNEY continues with fresh BEGINNINGS. That is how I define a mother daughter relationship......A JOURNEY OF A LIFETIME.

PAMPERING MY DAUGHTER

THIS POST IS FOR MY DEAREST DAUGHTER WHO IS MY TEACHER AS SHE TAUGHT ME TO BE A MOTHER. SHE IS THE ONE WHO MADE ME GROW INTO A MOTHER AND HER LOVE FOR ME, TRAINED ME TO GIVE HER THE DUES SHE DESERVED SO MUCH. I DEDICATE THIS POST TO HER ON THIS AUSPICIOUS DAY.....TEACHERS' DAY.


I PAMPER MY DAUGHTER NOT WITH CHOCOLATES AND SWEETS.....

BUT BY TREASURING HER IN MY HEARTBEATS.

I DON'T SHOWER HER WITH KISSES ALL THE WHILE.......

BUT UNDERSTAND HER NEEDS BY FLASHING A MATERNAL SMILE.

I DON'T SIT AND TALK TO HER ALL THE TIME.....

YET EVEN WITHOUT CONVERSATION OUR LIFE SEEMS TO RHYME.

I CLEAR AWAY THE RUST THAT GATHERS THROUGH THE DAY.....

AND WELCOME HER HOME IN MY OWN SPECIAL WAY.

PAMPERING HER WITH GIFTS IS SOMETHING I HAVE NEVER DONE....

INSTEAD I HAVE ACTED CLOWNISH TO GIVE HER, HER SHARE OF FUN.

I PAMPERED MY DAUGHTER WITH NO POCKET MONEY......

BUT BY INSTILLING VALUES SWEETER THAN HONEY.

I HAVE TAUGHT HER ABOUT LIFE AND ITS SONG....

HOW TRUTH IS ALWAYS TRIUMPHANT OVER WRONG.

I HAVE NEVER ALLOWED HER TO PARTY THROUGH THE NIGHT.....

YET RESPECTED HER CHOICE WHENEVER SHE BROUGHT TO LIGHT.

I HAVE ALWAYS GIVEN HER FREEDOM UNBOUND.....

COUPLED WITH VALUES TO KEEP IT SOUND.

I KNOW THE CLEAREST ECHOES OF HER FEELINGS....

AND APPRECIATE HER HARMONIOUS DEALINGS.

WHENEVER SHE IS SAD I CHASE HER FEARS AWAY.....

ENSURING IN HER LIFE MUSIC WILL PLAY.

WHEN WE TALK WE DON'T NEED THE VOWELS IN PLACE....

NOR BOTHER FOR SYLLABLES TO BE CROWNED WITH GRACE.

YET WHEN WE CONVERSE TIME STANDS STILL...

AND WITH JOY, EVERYDAY OF HER LIFE I FILL.
