The colour of my life

 

The gentle smile when you are asleep,

The half-eyed ‘Hari Om’ as you wake up,

The noisy screams as you get ready,

The never-ending tactics to make you eat,

The matured look as you board the bus and say bye-bye,

The disheveled hair when you return,

The cheerful look after a happy school day,

The angry look when you are tired and hungry,

The naughty pranks you play with your brother,

The tear-less crying when you are pranked,

The tantrums you throw to get things done,

The joy on your face while you watch your favourite shows,

The grumpy face when it’s time for study,

The fun you have when you play,

The gentle murmur in your midnight sleep,

The chuckling giggles after your naughty pranks,

The bursting laughter that fills our house,

The sense of humour that’s hidden in you,

The caring love you don’t express,

The strength with which you handle your pain,

The questions you ask that I can’t answer,

The divine energy that’s carrying you…

 

Hey my little girl, I want you to know,

All of these create different emotions in me,

Sometimes you dissolve me in love and bliss,

And, sometimes you drive me crazy,

But, when I try to put all of it in one frame,

There’s just one word to express it…’Beautiful’

Yes, YOU MAKE MY LIFE BEAUTIFUL.

  You have been robbed, Of all you had, Left blindfolded, On a quiet and gloomy road, The night is dark, Neither a moon nor a torch in hand, The path is rugged, With thorns and stones piercing the feet, The destination is unknown, Not sure, if it will be liked or not, Exhausted and weary, The limbs are aching, Yet, despair not… When you have faith, You are never alone, Feel grateful… Only what you had, is lost… You are not. The dawn is about to dawn, And you will be shown the way. Or, you will find your own.

http://www.indusladies.com/forums/blogs/induslady/indusladies-4th-annual-international-women-8412/ Mothering – Changes & Challenges: A woman becomes a mother not after the child is born..but the moment she comes to know that she is carrying her little one in her womb.  Mothers have always been given a very special place, for what they do, is simply marvelous and there is no substitute.  Mothering in itself has undergone lots of changes over years.  In olden days,  the role of the mother, was primarily to take good care of her child, nurture and guide them.  But today, the environment in which she needs to handle them has greatly changed, due to child’s wide exposure and hence challenging. In earlier years, predominantly, the child grew up in joint families.  Most of the child’s development happened through what he observed / experienced.  He observed the behavior of the elders in the house and absorbed them, which eventua...
