I got a lovely message today which had a part that said "......a child gives birth to a mother ". The saying could not have been more beautifully said and I could not have found a more apt occasion to share this in my space here today. Neelav , my son turned 9 on 28Th august and when I recall the years gone by today , I can only wish him many many happy returns . Being a mother , as all mothers around the world would surely agree with me , is not an easy job.This is one subject that is not taught in any class room......it has no teachers and its one that needs to be handled with care. But personally i feel, in spite of its challenges , its one part of a circle in a woman's life that needs to be experienced . And today as Neelav celebrates his birthday, I can only silently thank him for giving birth to that part of me that completes my circle of womanhood in this life time....for along with his birth a Mother was also born and though there might have been times when I might not have been able to be the ideal perfect by the book Mother, I definitely strife to be one.
