Some time back I overheard a conversation between a mother and a son.Son expressed his desire to give a gift to his mother on mother's day.Mother told i don't want you to spend any money on gifts.The son expressed his disappointment and said he is going to buy flowers.Mother, a little agitated said him to do whatever he likes
Gifts must not be given for the Just Heck of It.Think what a mother really wants and give it accordingly.Often in our lives we fail to listen.We think that we know what to give them more than they themselves do.
Most often in our lives we end up giving gifts and cards.However at the end of the whole journey how many gifts will be truly remembered.The things that would be rembered are the faces,kisses,hugs,tears and laughs that were shared.
The greatest present that we can give is the presence in eachother's lives.May be its 5 mins,5 hrs or a day.This small present will make her imensely happy.The memories of cards and gifts you give will be eventually destroyed but not the love,the time spent together.
Do not allow your ego overpower you.Listen to your heart and then decide what gift you are going to give your mother.
When you do this you will be amazed with the results and the gift will remain in the memory for a long time.
One cool thing that we notice as we grow older is that everyday is a celebration of each other . when we live a life like this all the days like mother's day,wedding aniversary or birthdays will be Just another day in the calender.
At the end of all this i would like to say Happy Mother's day to all Mother's of the world and my own mother whom i adore very much.Mother's love is the one unmatched love in this world.It is the love born out of authentic self and which is unconditional and everlasting.
