A Jewish proverb which says," God could not be everywhere so he created mothers" beautifully sums up the feelings of one and all inhabitants of this beautiful world who are everyday blessed with this real divine angel whom we all fondly call as Mother.
She is the all wonderful, selfless and loving lady who would always care for her husband and her children before anything else.
I remember once when I had returned back home after my second semester examination and my train got delayed by almost six hours. It was 1 AM in midnight and still she opened the gate in one bell and almost came running to give me a hug that I can never actually forget.
She waited all this long through midnight just to make sure that I don't sleep on an empty stomach. She made fresh hot chappatis though I had insisted for innumerable times on phone that I will be late and will eat on the way in train.
She is the one who will look at up to you after you have taken the first bite of your food and would immediately push forward the box of salt just by your expressions without you even saying the word. She knows you inside out and their is nothing that you can hide from her.
Their is one particular incident that I fondly remember of my mother.
It was during an holiday weekend that we were all planning for a sumptuous family dinner and she was all too excited to cook favorite dishes for all of us. When we sat to eat she was all happy to announce that she had cooked Matar-paneer-my fathers favorite dish, made stuff onion Naan- My sisters favorite and this all was going to be followed by Gazar ka halwa- my all time favorite. Their was an ultimate happiness in her eyes while serving these all dishes to us.
Indeed my sister suddenly inquired what has she cooked for herself, she smiled for a moment, tore a bite from her plate and fed her in mouth. The twinkle in her eyes said it all. Her love is the recipe that makes everything so delicious and unforgettable.
Though my professional life I have been to innumerable five star hotels, veteran dhaba's and prized eateries, yet still I have to find something more tasty that what she would cook for me everyday.
Their is no one more lovely and diving than a Mother and I am blessed to have her in my life.
This is a competition post written for Godrej to highlight the selfless love of the most beautiful relationship that a human being make in his/her life. This is to all the mothers in the World- Thanks for being their!
