Each one of us has seen those long dark sleepless
nights and dreadful days longer than eternity. Where do we find comfort when
life decides to bully us like never before? Of course, it’s Mom first and God
second. And, when mother decides to hug you tight and stand bravely against all
the problems of life, which have been haunting you, God follows!
My mother has taught me to be strong and give a
courageous fight to every problem that raises its head to screw mine. But, at
the same time, she has always taught me to breakdown into tears, speak up my
pain and seek her pure and powerful love.
My #Together Story
There have been countless days of pain and
difficulties in my life too. I would try hard to fight against all the
challenges and whenever I thought I was tired of fighting, I used to go and hug
her tight.
It was just another day, but a lot different than
other normal days. Procrastination has slipped into my veins and flowing
rigorously in my blood. Despite of trying hard to get my routine right and
chase my life’s goals, I was still sitting idle.
I could see time slipping through my hands but I was
helpless. Shackled in the invisible chains of procrastination, I started
feeling that life was meaningless. Slowly, that very feeling managed to acquire
a permanent space in my time. I started seeing myself as a culprit, who used to
waste time and do nothing productive.
This negative feeling turned so strong with time that
I started hiding from my own self. I used to sit for hours, being productive
and non-productive things. And, it was too difficult to say it all to anyone,
even Mom. I thought that she would not understand what am I going through and
she might also start blaming me for being a loser.
After all, I was never told to behave like a loser,
neither be one. So, I decided to deal with the mess alone and find a way. But,
life isn’t easy to understand. I didn’t focus on doing daily household work,
neither I was interested in studying. And staying up late during the nights had
become a routine thing to do.
Mom’s Magic
As they say, a child can never hide anything from her
mother. Soon mom discovered that I was feeling low on life. I managed to hide
it for a week that too because I was staying away from her those days.
I tried talking to her much over the phone, pretending
that I was too busy, because I knew she would find out about my depressing
state of mind.
She called me and said, “Look My Girl, whatever you
are going through, is temporary and you know that. But I guess you don’t know
that every night before I go to sleep, I close my eyes, take you in my lap and
sing your favorite melodies until you fall asleep. Do you feel my hug’s warmth,
before sleep hits you eyelashes?”
What could have I said to this, except showering
through my eyes. I was so thankful to God, Life and Mother Nature for giving me
the best mother ever. I know as long as we two are #together, nothing could go
wrong ever…
