Everyday Is A Mother's Day.....

Yesterday, I read a lot of good articles, messages, quotes and other stuffs from people showing how they actually love their mothers and how important they are in their daily lives. Many of us will testify to the fact that when it comes to the importance of our mothers, it is not just something to joke with because the kind of struggle and suffering our mothers goes through just to make sure we and our fathers are in good conditions is absolutely undefined. So yesterday was one of my best days because anytime I see people showing or talking about their love for their mothers I feel more than happy. To me personally I congratulate each and every one who showed his or mother love yesterday, thank you all for making your mothers proud. Its an undeniable fact that we need to show love to our mothers and there is no two ways about that.

But on the contrary, I ask myself certain questions, Should showing our mothers love be a single day? Should showing our mothers love be a day for celebration? Should showing our mothers love comes from what somebody has done as a celebration of his or her mother? And to me these are genuine questions that need answers. In all honesty who ever has an answers to these question should kindly educate us especially when the answers are “YES” I don’t have any issue with people showing love to their mothers, in fact I encourage who ever that has the ability to do so, to do it more but in other words I disagree with singling out one day just to show love to our dear mothers and the fact that I disagree with the singling out one day to show love to our mothers does not means that day isn’t important. In fact it has much importance such as, some people don’t actually show love to their mothers every day but this day at least make them also have that kind of feelings of sharing love with their mothers and it is good though. But with the whole choosing and agreeing with only this one day, as a day to show love to our mothers is what I have issue with.

It looks ungrateful on our part just to select only one day out of the 365 days that makes a year to show love to our mothers. It is a pity because we all have unanimously agreed that we can never show love to our mothers like how they do love us , then why then do we choose just one day to show love to them when we can’t even return a quarter of their love to them, so to me personal it looks sad.

It is sad but true. Mothers aren’t like anything we can celebrate once a year, we need to show them love and compassion on daily basis, hourly basis and every minute of our lives. Using only one day out of the 365 days to appreciate and celebrate the love I have for my mother seems more ungrateful. To me everyday is a mothers day....#motherslove.....
