Welcome welcome to my blog
There are some people in our life that we always owe a lot of gratitude because of some sacrifice they have made on your behalf.
This happened to be true in the case of my mother, she's the first important woman in my life, let me tell this community why.
Reasons why my mother is the most important woman in my life.
I was just 3 when my father left my mom for another woman, my mother was already pregnant of my younger brother.
Life became so difficult that getting daily meal for us became so difficult, you can imagine a pregnant woman struggling just alone, after few days of given birth she went out to hustle for food, as years passed i became aware if the situation on ground and i felt like for my mom.
My mother did so many difficult jobs just to put food in the table for me and my brother, she became a laborer, she goes around the village to help people with their house job like washing clothes, processing cassava and palm oil, just to see money for our food.
At some point some people adviced her to leave us with our aged grandmother and remarry since she was still a young woman but my mother refused and she told her family that she can't leave her children for any reason, she continued struggling.
I remembered some days we will have no dinner, the next morning she will go to the market with some farm products, immediately she sells those things she will buy us bread and water and we will eat it right there in the market, even when we will ask her to have some my mother will tell us that we are important to her.
For over 7yrs or more our father was no where to be found but my mother never gave us the opportunity to remember that our father is not around.
She didn't stop till date.
Till date my mother has never relented when it comes to taking care of her children, during my nursing school days she struggled so hard to make sure she gave me her best, and am so proud of her.
Presently it has been 4yrs my brother has been ill my mother despite being aged has been taking absolute care of this young man with complaints, you will also see her smile despite the problems around her.
My mother has some qualities that i will love to imitate.
She's long-suffering and have the patience to endure and always rejoice no matter the situation she finds herself, am sure that joyful heart is a healing to her body and thats why she has been strong even in the face of oppression and opposition.
She will always find a way to help others even when she's struggling to survive, so many people will come to our house for little things and she will give them, as long as she have it she will give.
My mom always looks at the future with hope, she believes it can only get better no matter wait, thats why she will do her best and give way for things to get better.
I can't love her less.
In the year 2019 i got hepatitis A and was admitted for two weeks, my mother was also sick but she demanded for discharge just to come take care of me, she's always there for her children, i can't say all she has done for me.
I hear of mothers who leave their children just because of family misunderstanding but my mother even when she had to stay hungry, beg people and do whatever she can just to take care of us, she never hesitated.
Sadly i lost that my brother at the age of ten, it was so painful and my mother found it so difficult to bear such tragic lose, but she just had to be strong because of me, sometimes i saw it in her eyes that she is giving up but my mom will always put a bright face and keep pushing.
My mom has gone a long way, i always pray for blessings so that i can give her the life she deserves, so that i can make her happy and let her enjoy the fruit of her labor.
I will tell you that she's the most important woman in my life.
I wish she can see this post, i love her so much.
