Mother’s day

May 17, 2017

With Mother’s day just around the corner, I wanted to show my mom how grateful I am for having her in my life. She’s always there for me and she gives selflessly without expecting anything in return. There are many articles out there to consult for “Mother’s day gift ideas she’ll love” or “top 10 ways to treat your mom like a goddess”. These weren’t what I was looking for this Mother’s day. Even though any of those ideas would have been good enough, I was still looking for more. I felt like I needed to do something I don’t normally do. I was running out of time. It’s only when I came to that realization that I found it.

With my job being highly demanding lately and with my studies taking most of my free time, I have been spending very little time with my mom. This Mother’s day, I’m going to give my mom my undivided attention and my time. I’m going to show her how much I cherish her every second of the day. I’m going to pamper her. As I get to enjoy her company, this will be good for my emotional wellness! Please share with us how you plan to treat or how you treated your mom this Mother’s day.

Happy Mother’s day to all moms, you make the world a better place!
