Love you Mom!

Today is Mother’s Day!

I spoke to my Mom on the phone.... She is not in the town, in fact she has gone with my Dad to her peehar  - thats my nanihaal, now a days they mostly travel together ....she sounded more weak than yesterday. She is not keeping well for last two years, but, she has always been very positive and repeats the same thing every day – “ arre bhai , mere ko kal se to thik lag raha hai, thik ho jayega”.... I am not very confident about it, her stomach pain worries me, but I seem to be able to do nothing. Doctors are clueless too.

I wished her “Happy Mother’s Day”!  I wanted to. I had never wished her before. She probably did not understand what I was saying as she continued asking me if I am eating on time.... they wouldn’t have this day so known in their times, but they always carried the value of their mothers, I don’t know if I am doing that, probably not. Mothers always want to know whether you have eaten on time, whether you are keeping all things in order, whether you are doing well.... They feel your pain without even mentioning.... I am happy that I could wish her today.

She knows for last 37 years how I have been eating....for as long as I can remember, I have not changed my ways of eating and she has not changed advising me on the same....well,  I don’t mind that J! I am lucky to have her around! 

....Be it Dad or Mom, sometimes you just need them more than ever. The way you walk into the house will tell them how your day have been....I am a man, not so young, and am supposed to be strong, but I must confess that I still feel afraid without them....I remember, my millionaire friend (who lost his both of the parents) mentioning once about  how he often  feels as if there is no roof over his head,  and,  how he still wakes up at nights unable to sleep back....

Our everyday life does not  really have to face this, but at times the need for a family, for a friend, for a companion is “unbearable”....well, that’s the only word which can probably come a little close to how I feel about it.

Having parents around, certainly fills the life and its emptiness to a great extent.

.. Just wondering if I can pay it forward.... probably providing my kids the education of happiness, probably try seeing all kids around as mine, probably creating a brighter and peaceful tomorrow for them, I can!

Wishing Happy Mother’s Day to all the women! ....You all are mothers at your heart!  

Mom, Thank You for giving me the breath, the blood and the milk!....Thank You for giving me the life! 

Love you Mom! You rock:-)!
