Mothers are very special, why? Because of the many valuable lessons of life they teach us, and their love is endless even when it doesn't appear that they love us. Mothers constantly remained us how good we are despite our misfortunes, and shortcomings. I cherished the many warnings, and odd idioms my mother often said to me such as, "watch the things youdo in the streets", "come straight home from school", "don't cross your eyes too muchor they will stay like that", "never laughat the sick, and the deformed" and the most funniest, and dearest expression mother often told us. "Don't be a fool for nobody", mind your own business." What excellent words of wisdom despite how odd, and funny these words were, they're meanings were valid, filled with love, and edified with wisdom.
My many visits with mom to the movies, stage plays, amusement parks, and her persistence that going to church was essential were most charitable, and appreciated. And the most touching moment with mother was when I went to Europe to study aboard. Mother pushed her way through a busy J.F.K. airport while in her wheelchair to see me off, and followed the itinerary for the entire 15 days I was abroad. I don't won't to leave out mom's fabulous recipes-mom had a unique way of making macaroni and cheese, it was a delight, a dose of onions did the trick, and her unique recipe of broccoli casserole was even better.
So on this Mother's Day holiday I thought I would share my thoughts about my dearest mother. While my mother has been deceased for more than ten years now my memories of her live on. There isn't a day that I don't feel her presence, and see her face. I know that in death, and the resurrection I will see her again, and that will be a great, and happy day for me.
To all of you at MOUTHSHUT ...HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
