A twenty four hour job. No monetary salary, an in house and on call job. The essence of being a woman and the pride of each and every other man. The only being capable of giving a true unconditional love, care and attention. Strong yet fragile, soft and yet firm. These are only some of the qualities that make up the best person we can look up to in the world (that's in my case though), that's my Mom. I grew up as child raised by my mom (My father went overseas as soon as I turned two). I usually see my dad once or twice every year. Growing up with her has given me the best foundation and cornerstones in my life. The values and key points that I should learn as I grow up has been taught to me in her own way. All that I am right now, I owe it to her. That's why whenever someone compliments the way I am (e.g. personality, mind set, values and discipline) I always say "My mom raised me well..." and as a matter of fact I am still able to learn a lot from her even at my current age. We have had our good and bad times as well. From the hundreds of lies and tantrum I've had when I was a kid up to when she and my dad went separate ways, and up until my dad almost disowned me for being who I am. She is always there to show and make me feel loved despite all that has happened. Even if she's miles away or just in the room above mine she makes sure I feel her support for me in all ways possible. That's why I made a promise to myself that the only girl who will be worth all my love and care is my MOM.
"She'll never get tired of you nor forsake you in any kind of way. You both have a bond that can never be severed and will always be there till the end of time. She will always be your Mother."
