MY MOTHER

According to me mother is a lady who takes the role of friends, guide and the philosopher. She is the one who finds the solution to all the problems. She is the one who stands and supports her loved ones when everyone backs out. Mother is everything. She deserves love and care from each and every one of us. I consider mother as manifestation of god and we shouldn’t hurt her sentiments. Rather we must worship her. Worshiping her is as same as worshiping god.

I consider myself as most unfortunate girl and I too blame my fate for not having the most precious and beautiful gift life could offer is my mother. I lost her when I was in 12^th standard. But I still respect and value her wisdom words that she whispered to me before she bid farewell to this mother earth. Her words are still lingers in my mind and echoes in my ears. She said, “listen my lovely children, I am extremely sorry, now I am not sure whether I can help and stand up for you all or not. Hereafter, you all should be bold and good enough to support each other. And you all grow up; it’s your responsibility to take good care of your APA. He will really need your support, love and care. You all are his strength.” The rivers of tears rolled down over her pale cheek when she slowly closed her eyes. Though she is no more with us, her words are still fresh and alive and that makes me feel her presence. I always feel that she is by my side to support and guide me when I am in trouble. My mother was the most generous and gentle person I had in my life and she will be always.

My mother, who was always determined by the wishes and dreams but her wishes and dreams are still left unfulfilled and untouched. Not because she was a failure rather death was the winner. She always wished to watch her children settled in their life and lead a peaceful life so she enjoy her last breath with smile. But unexplainable death didn’t favor her.

We cried like an orphan, begged like a beggar and fought like a soldiers, just to get her back to our life but the unresponsive god didn’t favor us as well. And in the presence of all the family members, the curl death took away her away making us handicapped and helpless. The very moment made my life meaningless and worthless. Without the cream of our family, everything seems meaningless and worthless especially wealth, marriage and children.

I don’t know how to evaluate death. How should I understand death or to what shall I refer it to. Is death certain or uncertain, justice or injustice, cruel or not. But at that very moment the death became crueler to us than to my mom.

Anyhow, I just want to confess that nobody can fight against death as it is always the winner. ‘We are born to die’ and the fact will continue forever. You don’t know what you have until you lose it. It is true in my case and I am sure that readers will agree with what I have said.

DEATH IS CERTAIN AND IT WILL COME ON OUR WAY ONE DAY OR OTHER. So get prepared for it.
