Boss Mom

For every hiuman being, his mother is the most beautiful and respected lady in the world. There is no doubt that every mother is special. Every child considers his mother to be the best friend of his life. My mother is as important to me as any other mother in the world is to her children.

But my mother's life is a book that has motivation and advice for us on every page.

When my mother was very young, her mother died. After her mother's death, she had to drop out of school because of household responsibilities because there was no one else to take care of household chores.

Her father and brothers used to go out in the morning for their work and return home in the evening. Making food for all of them and doing the rest of the housework was my mother's responsibility. Besides, raising her younger siblings was also her responsibility. My mother often had tears in her eyes as she talked about her childhood. She tells us, remembering her childhood,

"Every time the children in the neighborhood went to school, she would stand in the doorway of her house and watch them go to school."

She was very fond of getting education but the responsibilities of life became an obstacle in the way of her education.

When my mother was 16 years old, she was married to my father. My father used to work abroad. My mother spent many years with her in-laws after her marriage.

Every girl wants to spend all her time with her husband after marriage. She wants to go to lunch or dinner with her husband and she also wants her husband to always be with her and support her. But my mother spent that beautiful time of her life without her husband. My father used to come to Pakistan once or twice a year and after staying here for a few days he would go back.

My mother is really a great person who first took care of her father's house, then took care of our father's house, and then took care of her children.

Sometimes I would feel very sad to know about her past life. And I often asked my mother, "Why didn't she ever complain to anyone despite having such a difficult time in her life?"

But knowing the answer, I felt ashamed of my question, she says,

"Every human life has different demands, and my life has made such strong demands on me so that I can become a stronger person, and teach my children to be stronger."

My mother has always shown us the positive aspects of life, she also presented the hardships of life as challenges and taught us the art of fighting them by considering these hardships as challenges.

Sometimes knowing the circumstances of my mother's life, I would feel angry at my grandparents, and my father for handing over these problems to my mother, but whenever I expressed my anger to my mother, she would reply that,

"Every person has different responsibilities, every person has to play a different role to drive life, your grandfather, and father played their role and I played my role."

My mother always taught me the art of caring for any responsibilities with patience.

I have seen times when in the absence of my father, his family treated my mother badly, but my mother never expressed anger or hatred against them. I asked my mother about it,

"What kind of person are you? Why don't you get angry at them or why don't you respond to them?" Then my mother answered me,

"If they misbehave, it is their character, and if I respond to their misbehavior with good behavior, it is my character. And every human being is responsible for his own character. And the world will remember us for our good and bad deeds and morals. "

My mother taught me the art of good manners and high morals. My mother did not give me advices from books nor did she teach me traditional ethics and lessons but she practically trained us.

She made herself a role model for her children so that their children could learn from her life. My mother is a woman with a great personality. She made herself an institute for us where we can take guidance in every difficult and easy task of our lives.
