As a baby, I thought only my mum existed as a mother. I enjoyed being cuddled in her arms and sleeping off as she tucks me in.
Her back was a soothing mattress. My baby whining teats dries up immediately I hit that blessed back. I need no pillow there when I have a well padded paired trapezius muscles gracefully positioned whether I turned right or left.
A lot of women would rather not have a child when it pissed with the question of desiring twin. But my mum, the only mother in the world, gave it a fair shot. She prayed through until she saw two cuties as the results of those travail in the place of supplication.
I have seen a little of what women go through with a single child so I imagine what Mum went through caring the two of us. Wow! Breast feeding, backing, patting, bathing and nurturing generally. I hail thee, Mum. Thank you for everything!!!
Now, I have been opportune to know several other mothers. So, I dedicate this post to every wombed-man(Woman) whether you are still unsure about your gender in the womb or have even grown so old that you can barely be differentiated from a masculine figure physically. Lol.
I celebrate you for these...
1. You aligned yourself to the Creator's agenda for you and didn't struggle to be a man or become so dissatisfied that you pay a huge sum for trans-gender medical procedures.
2. You stuck to the bizarre changes you saw at puberty and didn't call yourself an alien even though you barely understood what hormonal configurations underlined those changes.
3. I passionately celebrate your 3-5 days monthly necessary hemorrhage helping us to keep tab on the world population.
4. I understand the societal demands on you and it's unfair approach to the feminine passivity, vulnerability and fragility. But of course, I honor those of you who have refused to be tagged "inferior" to the masculine gender especially those that have a nonviolent approach helping to liberate the minds of several women from such bondage that has overstayed its welcome in this 21 century.
5. I want sincerely empathize with those of you who had been or are still victims of the inordinate expression of the punctured masculine esteem and ego. They raised their hands against you because their minds have been clouded with egoist demonic impulsive abuse. I pray God gives you victory soonest!
6. This particular shout out is for that only female child. I know you will feel lonely from time to time since there might be anyone to share your time with. I can't promised to be there for you(lol) but I know you have a rare purpose to have been sent to our world in such a single package. Make wise use of your time here and resources available to you. Don't be spoilt or give in to depression. When you are fully grown, you will have a companion for life. But now, enjoy healthy friendship with others.
7. My heart beats an bleeds for this category. They were there when "he" had nothing. They built a life together. Had children together. Memories always pound your head whenever you think about how you lost your dear husband prematurely to that cold death. I encourage you to be a widow with a class. Don't give in to self pity or pity parties. If you are still of age, please go ahead and remarry but seek counsel from God first. If you can't remarry give yourself to something that inspires you, those things you had in mind as a spinster. Be young again at least at heart. Don't go about in shades of gloomy gowns. Wear a smile without pretense. Breathe in some fresh air and live again.
Part of this category also include single mothers. For whatever reason you are not with the Father of your child( unborn or born). I'm not about to go all judgmental on you. NEVER! If you can reunite,no problem, depending on the indices that surrounds your separation. But don't let that child grow without a father figure. That child may grow up with the wrong notion about men especially if the child is a girl.
8. For those that are celibate (nuns), I honor your consecration. May your denials and dedication get you closer to God.
9. I have a thing for this next group. They have had dreams of how motherhood will be but have never been opportune to be one. Some have never even had a miscarriage let alone a still birth. Some even have had a child or two but have no more. These are all forms of barrenness that comes with excruciating pains. I plead with you, never lose hope. Hannah didn't. Sarah got hers. You I'll not be denied your desires in Jesus' Name. Don't compromise by seeking help that won't last. Even if you have spent so much on IVF and other forms o interventio, just seek God's face before you go for another one and see the miraculous take place.
10. Lastly, my unreserved excitement goes to those who are yet to be a wife let alone a mother. You do well if you have decided to wait till you are a wife before "mothering a child". May your Prince Charming locate you soonest.
Several other categories I wish I can write about. You are not forgotten. especially those who care for the Motherless making those children have a taste of motherly care. God bless you!
I want to say a Happy Mother's day to Every Woman in the World especially my Mum, Sisters and Wife-to-be. Y'all deserve a special treat now and forever.
What makes your mum special? Kindly drop your comments.
The above is still part of the experiences from My World.
Stay tuned.
I'll make up for the days I didn't post any article. So you may see more than a post some days.
Cheer!!!
