It is a fashion to propagated that women should be empowered and they should be educated for the same. However my mother reminds me that she was full of energy and very active. She was not much educated but she was empowered within. We had very big big family with several brothers and sisters but she she knew qualities and liabilities of each one us. She use to handle us accordingly. Besides that she use to love us equally and use to give equal attentions to our educations and developments. Therefore we all brothers sisters are well educated and well qualified.
She never spent much on her self but use to see that our all requirements are met and all aspirations are fulfilled. We had our own joy and setback in our lives but she shared all those thing with us and stood firmly behind us in time of need. Our father was little bit strict regarding discipline, and teaching the value of money in life. He was of opinion that one should make his own balance life with good career i.e. Spending his own earn money for his pleasure. But our mother was of opinion that child can enjoy only in his childhood as those are the care free days. That pleasure cannot be compared with spending of once own money with all duties and responsibilities in life. Therefore she was lenient in giving us reasonable amount of money to spend for our Hobbies and Liking. However it is also fact that we always felt in our lives that we have not missed much pleasure in our childhood. In short we are satisfied that we had the best of the things in our childhood. Besides that we are never impressed now with any sort of glamour and pleasures in India or Abroad.
We also learnt from her regarding how to keep the best of public relation in the Society. Her message clear that you should be always helpful to one in need. That was her base for excellent public relationship. She use to rush always in the bad and good social events to give all helps. She never cared if some one does not reciprocate. However it was surprising for us that how she use to manage most sophisticated crowd and gathering. That too without much education. It has convinced me that there is a inherent power in the women who does not required any empowerment. However those Energies are supposed to be properly channelized and that too without suppression.
The love of mother reflects every time you get hurt and you shout 'Oh Mom'. It also reflects when you are in trouble. Then it reminds you of her suffering which teaches you the way of facing difficulties in life. It is true that mother always prays for the welfare of her children. some people say that one should take the name of God at the time of death. However mother also stand equal to God.
I miss my mother's love, affection, more and more with passing of time. It may be due to her love and affection still around me in the form of air vibrations.
