BEING A WOMAN: A PRICELESS GIFT

Hello dearies, it has been quite a while since I posted anything. I promise to make it all up to you. Indeed, life outside blogging has been more demanding. Let me not bore you with any lengthy intro.

Being a woman is a priceless gift! To share, to care, to love, to procreate...the essence of a woman. Recently, we celebrated our mothers on mother’s day and it was a joyous occasion as new memories and bonds were established. In the mist of all the joy and exuberance, I was triggered into thinking about the future and how really motherhood would be like. A cacophony of thoughts and questions suddenly flooded my mind. I believe hundreds and thousands of women have snapped back at one point in time to visualise and assess what their future as mothers would be like.

The day before mothers' day, I had spent quite a considerable amount of time at the labour ward. I witnessed in awe the magic of childbirth and the expression of excitement on the mothers' face. I observed how the mothers gently squeezed their breasts and although only little drops of milk squirmed out sometimes, they were relentless. It is amazing how a woman moves from being just a daughter, a sister, a wife, a sister in law, a daughter in law to being also a mother.

Right from scratch, a mother sacrifices so much for her children. It is no wonder that many people attribute their success to their mothers. A mother helps the family adjust to new realities and challenges, a mother recognises the fire in her child and keeps it blazing, a mother has the potential to influence not just a human life, but also the society and generations to come.

After it all, put your baby on your chest and take in the wonder you’ve brought into the world.

A blog that I am totally in love with at the moment is: DIARY OF DOC DIVA. A big hi to you Gucci Ezeala, a wonderful mentor.
