Remembering....

Today is Mother's Day. Though a year has passed by, i still remember my mum so vividly. 365 days have gone by, but the memories of her are still so fresh in the mind. The woman who had took care of me for almost 60 days...how can i forget her so soon. I'm sure the thoughts of her will still be embedded in my heart for many years to come.
What would i like to remember most about mum today? Obviously all the good and beautiful things about her ...a woman of courage... a woman, who in times of hardships,taught me to endure...a woman who taught me about hope in hopeless situations...a woman who gave her best to take care of the family. Pastor said today that it is mothers who will set examples for their children to follow. Well, it is true. How we turn out to be is what our mothers have taught us. The greatest teaching, i personally believe, is the ability to differentiate right from wrong. Sad to say, this is very lacking in our society today. Motherhood has undergone an evolution nowadays. Mothers are too busy......no time for their children. Children are left to do their own stuff. Television programmes are the mothers of today....the programmes teach our children what values should be, teaching our children to be aggresive and violence....certainly many of these cartoon networks are perpetuating many negative values.
As for myself, i hope i can say that i have brought up Christina to be well-balanced person....able to differ right and wrong. For the time being, i hope she is a good wife. To be a good wife and mother is not easy....but has to be learnt....so that generation from generation we can have children who will truly carry on the good name of the family.......
