The Way You Treat Your Mother Is The Same Way Life Will Treat You

The way you treat your mother is the way life will treat you. Today is one of those days... I really wish my mom was here. Listen carefully my audience because this is a lesson many people learn is too late. A mother's love, the few gifts in this world that asks for nothing in return. Before you ever spoke your first word, she was already speaking prayers over you. Before you took your first step, she was carrying your weight without complaint. She sacrificed her comfort so that you could have a better future. Never take that love for granted. Our elders say a person who does not honor their mother is like a tree without roots. A tree may look strong on a sunny day, but when the storm comes, only deep roots can keep it standing. In the same way, a person who forgets the one who raised them slowly loses the values that make life meaningful. Respect is not shown only with sometimes the greatest gift you can give your mother is your time. Call her, visit her, listen to her stories, even if you have heard them before. Speak to her. Be patient when she grows older, just as she was patient when you were young.
