The bond between a mother and child becomes stronger with every role that she plays. My mother and I have a special bond with lots of emotions like love, anger, frustration competition etc. Sometimes I love her and sometimes I hate her. Sometimes she’s the last person I want to see but sometimes she’s always the first one I go to for advice. We would argue, disagree and then turn around and joke in a. There are still times I argue with her. At times she is chummy and benignant but at times I feel like she is overprotective or too controlling. She can be charming and friendly at times, but other times I think she’s controlling or too protective.
My mother wears a lot hats and plays many roles in our family. I would like to take an opportunity to share some memories of her in her diverse roles.
My mother as a best friend
Like a true friend she is always there with me in good and bad times. Earlier, I never realized but now that I have grown older, I have realized she is a gift from God who has given me life and is my best friend for life.
My mother as a mentor
A great mentor is one who always teaches you what is right and what is wrong. A mentor not only supports you but also becomes strict with you when required. And we all can see these traits in our mothers. . She is our first teacher who teaches us at every step of life.
My mother as a caretaker
No one can care for us as a mother does. She knows all the needs of her child and can do anything to fulfill them. Whenever me and my sister get’s sick or ill, it is our mother who takes care of us without concern about her health.
Love, joy, frustration and all other human emotions are woven into the fabric of the mother-child bond. It is a relationship that moulds us, influences every facet of our life, and shapes who we are. It is through the mother’s love and guidance that we learn important life lessons, develop resilience and cultivate a sense of empathy and compassion.
In a nutshell the bond with my mom is a journey filled with laughter, sorrow and unfathomable love. I am very fortunate to have a mother in our life, and we all must respect our mother. It is a connection and bond that can’t be explained in a few words and strikes the core of our beings.
