Mother's Love

Love is a beautiful feeling!

It refreshes and revitalizes one’s soul! Have you ever had a true feeling of love? I am not implying love that individuals out there mistook for lust and at the point where this virtue needs to stand the test of time it fades away. Love is immeasurable, Love is sacrifice, and Love is tolerance.

The love that I speak about is the love between mother and child; it is so priceless, so treasured, and well cherished! I lack words to describe this natural and magnificent bond between mother and child. When I am faced with this scenario probably on social media platforms, I am so teary and my hardened heart softens with every act displayed by that child. How adorable!

I am enthralled by their entire existence, awe-inspiring by their overload cuteness because, to be honest, I will be so sentimental in judging when it comes to these little creatures. I adore children, they are my little Gods and I despise seeing a situation whereby mothers maltreat their kids, it pisses me off and I always find myself talking irrationally to such parents.

A SHORT BITTER ORDEAL

It was earlier last week that I came across a video where a young lady threw a newborn baby boy from a three-storey building and the baby died after a few minutes.
A woman around that vicinity rushes to the scene of this atrocity and tries to revive the baby but to no avail! I lamented! My heart was clutched with pain! I cried bitterly within myself. What will amount to this despicable act of murder? Where is the love? What took away that beautiful virtue and replaced it with deep hate?

These were moments and days after I watched countless videos on Instagram about how babies talk, play, and behave like old souls. How they connect and to an extent of speaking and understanding their baby language. They make me smile contagiously and shed joyful tears softly.

The kind of love I am talking about is one where this new tiny-winy creature changes who you are in the aspect of attitude; being patient, calm, and ever-enduring. They are most likely the only beings that can get into your nerves and you overlook it with love and a sigh.

With every attitude that is displayed, they leave you in awe to wonder which planet or generation they came from.
The joy that comes with motherhood is undiluted, incomparable, and ever-remarking beautiful! It is like when a mother’s heart is poured out and she nurtures it with every ounce of strength in her. Her love overflows for her child endlessly.

A mother’s love shapes a child’s self-development, self-esteem, self-confidence, and so forth. When a child feels unconditionally loved by their mother, they develop a strong sense of worth and a belief in their cognitive value. It is a prevailing force that extends beyond infancy, influencing various aspects of a child’s life, from emotional well-being and social skills to rational growth and moral understanding.

The basis of a child’s emotional stability and social abilities is often rooted in a mother’s love. A mother’s presence is necessary for the growth of her child and this can’t be gotten from anyone, this is the reason why a child always looks for their biological parent if they are adopted.
They seek that maternal bond they rarely got.

The kind of love I speak about is the love and happiness that you are witnessing the child you bore turn into a full-grown man/woman, getting married, and leaving your home to build theirs. The strength, time, commitment, and efforts placed in raising that child to become what they are today. Mother’s love is priceless, underrated, and eternal!
