They bring us into this world and from this moment on their
only thought is our welfare. If we have
enough to eat, that we dress warmly, that we are hardworking and neat, or that
our room or later our homes are well kept.
Our mothers are always there for us. In life it becomes
almost self-evident that they have no other interest other than our
well-being. One can quickly forget that
our mothers are also persons with their own lives and wishes, and that their
love for her children sometimes holds them back because they cares more for
their children than for themselves. That
is why it’s time to pull the curtain on all the secret thoughts that a mother
has daily with her child.
1. You are the reason she has cried so much.
She cried from joy as she learned she was pregnant. She cried out of happiness when she finally
held you in her hands. She wept with
worry when things didn’t go your way.
And with pride at every step along the way.
2. She also wants the last slice.
But of course she says she is full when she notices that
you’d like to eat it. Out of sheer love
for you, she gives it up. She doesn’t
just give up the slice of cake, but on so much more in life.
3. She always worried about you.
Even before your birth she gave everything to keep you from
harm. When you were out late, she
waited. Not to bother you, but because
she wanted to know that you were okay.
No matter if sickness or heartbreak: she is always at your side. Forever.
4. She had pains. Time and time again.
Your birth was the greatest pain that a person can
feel. And the 9 months before were
anything but easy. Afterwards you bit
her while she nursed you, pulled her hair out, and kicked her.
But with a smile from you, the pain was forgotten.
5. She is not perfect.
Maybe her care for you sometimes gets on your nerves. Perhaps she doesn't do everything right or
like you’d wish. But she always tries
her best and is her own best critic.
6. She loves to look at you.
It is unbelievably hard for her to look away from you. After you finally fell asleep on that
sleepless night and awoke again with a smile, this moment has always warmed her
heart.
7. When you cried, her world fell apart.
Every one of your sobs is a stab in the heart. For her there is nothing more important than
to comfort you and make you happy again.
8. To let you go is such a terrible loss.
She knows from the beginning that you will live your life
step by step. Every step is difficult
for her; whether it is your first love or your own apartment. What seems like an eternity for you flies by
for her. That is why it’s so difficult
for her.
9. She would do it again.
Despite all the pain and what she lost, the love and joy was
always been greater and more important.
That is why she would take it all on again. Because she loves you.
When you see your mother next, tell her how much you love
her. Or give her thanks. That will send her heart to the moon. Sometimes it is good to realize everything
mothers do for us and what they gave up along the way. They give us their love so that we
thrive.
