A Tribute To Mothers
Mothers are women who inhabit or perform the role of bearing some relation to their children, who may or may not be their biologicaloffspring. Thus, dependent on the context, women can be considered mothers by virtue of having given birth, by raising their child(ren), supplying their ovum for fertilization, or some combination thereof. Such conditions provide a way of delineating the concept of motherhood, or the state of being a mother. Women who meet the third and first categories usually fall under the terms 'birth mother' or 'biological mother', regardless of whether the individual in question goes on to parent their child. Accordingly, a woman who meets only the second condition may be considered an adoptive mother, and those who meet only the third a surrogacy mother.
The above concepts defining the role of mother are neither exhaustive nor universal, as any definition of 'mother' may differ based on how social, cultural, and religious roles are defined. The parallel conditions and terms for males: those who are (typically biologically) fathers do not, by definition, take up the role of fatherhood. It should also be noted that mother and fatherhood are not limited to those who are or have parented. Women who are pregnant may be referred to as expectant mothers or mothers-to-be, though such applications tend to be less readily applied to (biological) fathers or adoptive parents.
A mother is someone
who guides and inspires.
She helps us to
attain our dreams and desires.
Wisdom and insight
are part of her way,
and her faith in her
children brightens their days.
All
mothers are rich when they love their children. There are no poor mothers, no
ugly ones, no old ones. Their love is always the most beautiful of joys.
What
a mother can do …
My
mother said to me, "If you become a soldier, you'll be a general; if you
become a monk, you'll end up as the pope." Instead I became a painter and
wound up as Picasso.
A partially deaf boy came home from
school one day carrying a note from officials at the school. The note suggested
that the parents take the boy out of school, claiming that he was "too
stupid to learn."
The
boy's mother read the note and said, "My son Tom isn't 'too stupid to
learn.' I'll teach him myself." And so she
did.
When Tom died many years later, the people
of the United States of America paid tribute to him by turning off the nation's
lights for one full minute. You see, this Tom had invented the light bulb—and
not only that, but motion pictures and the record player. In all, Thomas Edison
had more than one thousand patents to his credit.
The hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.—William
Ross Wallace (1819-1881), U.S. Poet and
Songwriter
Life
began with waking up
and
loving my mother's face-—George Eliot
(1819-1880), British Novelist
World's best quotes for mother's
"God could not be everywhere, and therefore he made mothers".-Rudyard Kipling
"No language can express the power, and beauty, and heroism, and majesty of a mother’s love. It shrinks not where man cowers, and grows stronger where man faints, and over wastes of worldly fortunes sends the radiance of its quenchless fidelity like a star". ~Edwin Hubbell Chapin
"The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness".- HONORÉ DE BALZAC
"A mother is a person who, seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie".- TENNEVA JORDAN
"Mother–that was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries". T. DEWITT TALMAGE
