Today is Mother's day and i want to write about how hard it is to be a mother.
My mom is a great mom, she wakes up at 5 am in the morning to clean whole house except my room, go to market, prepare breakfast and off to work. At4-5 pm she comes home from work and start to cook for dinner, after dinner she needs to wash all the dishes, taking care of all laundries at the end she climbs to bed at 9 pm. Everyday she will do the same things.
While for me, last few months i got 5 am-5pm shifts for a week and it felts like i was dying in the process. I was not a morning person at that time so it's very dreadful for me to wake up at 4 am in the morning then i never cook breakfast my breakfast was just stale bread with Nutella. In addition i don't need to clean my rooms. At 5 am i start and when i was working i felt like i'm a zombie because my mind and my spirit was not there. At 3/4pm i went home and i need to resist the temptation to sleep or else i can't sleep at night and it was just terrible since u feel sleepy and tired. At 5 pm i cook a super simple dinner or sometimes i dined out because i was too tired too cook.Lastly at 7 pm i HAVE TO climb up to my bed or else i'll get cranky. Those whole weeks it just so dreadful for me and i started to think how on earth my mother do those things . I even only did those routines for like a week and i didn't need to clean the house, do laundry, or cook a real dishes like my mom, but i still feel terribly exhausted after that weeks. I felt like i was a living dead at that moment.
What was funny bout this is i always complaining why my mom always feel exhausted but now i completely understand. I can't imagine that one day when i become a mother i'll tell my children that dinner would have to wait until tommorrow night just because i feel really sleepy and i need to go bed at 7 pm every evening hahahaha . That just absurd!!!
From that moment, I realize that for 22 years of my life she had sacrified more than enough. Living like her in those routines is terribly boring and exhausting but she still manage it until today . I am very grateful to her and i know that she is a great mother. Some mothers might not do something like my mother do ,but just believe me that every mother want the best for their children and they have their own way to give their best.
This is just a simple example of sacrifice that certain mother had made. Some mother would rather have her son or daughter resent her so that her son or daughter will not make a mistake that can ruin his or her life. Some mothers would rather leave their children because they think that they are children will be better off without them. You should watch Desperate Housewives to see that how far certain mother will go to protect their children. There is no one in this world truly loves u like your mother so loves her back like no one will love her except their children !
So readers if u ever think that your mother doesn't love u enough i give u a simple solution. U can try to follow her routines, try to play her role and u'll understand that she loves u more than enough.
