Mother forever



Today I saw an interview with the mother of the famous Brazilian journalist Ricardo Boechard, who left us as a result of an air disaster. She said that there were two groups of mothers: those who cheerfully celebrate Mother's Day with their children and those who are sad at that date and whose people around her look and comment with pitty that she have lost their child. The mother of the journalist who, like me, is part of the second group, said in the interview that people were mistaken because they are moms independent of any event that had occurred.

She is right. There is no ex-mother and regardless of where the child is, the mother will always keep him in her heart and, with the love she feels, she carries her child wherever she goes.

Mother is the one who held the tender hand to help him take the first steps and who rejoiced at this victory. She was the one who explained, devoted herself, vibrated with the first smile, listened with emotion to the first words and taught the first letters.

We realized, we learned, we thank God for this gift that has been loaned us. This ever present gift! We tried to avoid disappointment and we were there giving advice. We thrive with his achievements: the trophy of the match wins, approval in a new karate band, good grades at school ...

We participated in everything and so we were and are mothers. I hear some single-mother mothers say that this is no longer their day because they are no longer mothers! Wrong! Mother is a fixed and indestructible quality. Everything you have planted has contributed educated and cultivated belong to you forever!

So let's enjoy our day as a trophy given to us by our children of whom we are and we will always be, proudly, MOMS!
