Good day to you all, and I want to wish all mothers Happy Mother's day. Many more to celebrate on earth.
This is the best moment to celebrate our mothers; last month when I went to hospital for my part-time job, I saw a pregnant woman in the labour room, when I went there to say hi to my friend.
My friend said, “this young lad has been labouring for 4 hours, and the nurses are waiting for the doctor that wanted to operate her to resume work. They have called the doctor, he's on his way here.”
When I saw her eyes ball, the white turned to red, and she was in a serious pain. She held her head and cried aloud.
Before he arrived at the hospital, she gave birth to a baby boy, and his weight was 4.5kg. She did not do the operation, and had to sell all the kits she bought for the operation.
When I got home that day, I was wondering the day I came out of my mother's womb. Thinking how it could be to that of my mother. After my reflection I called my mother on the phone and made her happy.
I promised myself that even though my mother has enough to care for herself , I will always send her a token as a gift every month.
I watched ‘The Walking Dead' again today; despite it being a horror movie, I learned lessons from it; and it is a lesson we should all learn together.
The Scene
There was an American man, I don't know how he got there because I just started watching it, but I saw him killing those zombies at the beginning of the movie.
To summarize the whole thing, he walked into a Catholic church where there were only sisters in the church and a little boy.
One of the sisters persuaded the man to stay with the son so that he can train the little boy. The sister said to him “you are sent here by God as a messenger to deliver law. He grows up without father's figure, he is lonely and needs someone to help him. He is a gifted and mysterious boy! His mother died in childbirth.”
Despite the way he was persuaded, he left the Catholic church and went his way. As he was going, he saw armed men going to the Catholic church. Though, he killed some that wanted to kill him, and they were searching for him.
When those armed men got into the Catholic church, one of them said, “we are looking for a foreigner, he killed my friends. We want to search your environment”.
Before they allowed those armed men to enter inside, one of their sisters went inside and hid a little boy in a secret chamber; they knew if they saw the little boy they would take him away from them.
As those armed men were searching, they saw a zombie in the church; one of the sisters said, "He is our father in-charge of this cathedral, we believe that God can still heal him, we believe in miracles”.
One of the armed men shot the zombie without hesitation. The moment the little boy heard the gunshot, he ran toward them and began to cry “you have killed father".
The leader of Armed men, "who is the boy, take him along with us".
That was how one of the sisters ran with the little boy, and those armed men pursued them. Though the sisters in the cathedral had weapons and trained themselves for self-defence; that was how they took their weapons out and fought with the armed men.
About 95% of sisters died and the foreigner sensed that those armed men were looking for him, so he went back to the church and fought with the armed men.
He was able to save the little boy and a sister! The rest of the sisters died to save the little boy.
What I learned in this movies
Some mothers don't care what happens to them. If they need to do something for the survival of their children, they will do it.
I remember when my sister was hospitalized, my mother was in hospital, taking care of her, feeding her, sleeping in the hospital and doing everything. My father would only come in the evening and go back home.
My mother can call me morning, evening and night; and whenever she called me, she would say, “I only want to hear your voice, how are you? Hope you are fine? If you need something, don't hesitate to ask me".
I know that if my father is still alive, he will not have a chance to call me three times a day. Probably, once a week.
*The impact mother in our lives"
The impact of a mother is Unfathomable! It is possible to survive as a child without a father, while it is hard to survive without a mother.
Though there are many people that survive without a mother, or a mother as tutor! If you ask those that survive without a mother or a mother's figure, they will tell you it is ‘TOUGH’.
There are many mothers that died for their children to survive. I heard a mother say, “doctor remove one of my kidneys and transplant it to my son".
Friends may abandon you when you are in trouble, but your mother will not abandon you, and if she abandons you, inside her heart, she may not.
A young boy was caught stealing, and he was naked and beaten. Her mother was the only person begging for him. Finally, when the boy was released, his mother took him to hospital, and treated him. His friends cut ties with him, yet his mother could not cut ties with him.
My take home
The sisters in the church were ready to die for the little boy to survive; I believe a biological mother can do more than that for her biological children.
In this notion, Mother's day shouldn't come twice or thrice in a year. We should be celebrating mother's day every month. It should be done once in a month because twice or thrice cannot merit what our mothers are doing for us.
I don't know when I was a kid, as at 5 years old, I have never seen my father bathe for me; it was my mother that was bathing, watching my clothes, cooking and many more.
Just like the little boy was very free with those sisters, that was how I was very free with my mother. I love to sleep in my mummy's room rather than my room.
Whenever mummy asked me questions, I gave her details and even told her everything my friends told me in school.
But, I cannot try that with my father, not that he would scold me; but, I can't just do it.
Big shout out to all mothers!!!
Happy mother's day to you all.
