The significant other ...

It is a person with multiple roles and actions. It is he/she whom you would turn to in case of trouble or sadness.
It is the first person you tell the good news to.

You wouldn't be where you are now if she/he didn't exist.
I won't say much because I guess you already know who I am talking about.

Yes, it is "mother".

Mothers are a sacred blessing that God has given us in order to appreciate and be thankful for.

How many of you would seek or utter the word mother when you are troubled, sick or even when feeling insecure? We never think of the reasons why we love our mothers, because if we did we would have to mention so much and would also forget a lot.

It is she who makes sacrifices and it is she who bears with you when many would turn their backs on you.

Simply put, she is a mother who all religions have praised and have demanded us to respect and listen to.
It is the mother who many of you young girls will become one day, and then you will really understand the meaning of the term.

Many of you might wonder now: "Is Mothers Day coming soon?"

Well, no but I just thought that why should we wait for that day to appreciate our mothers; we can do this any day and every day.

And don't you think that your mother deserves all the respect, love and appreciation from you?

So go ahead and show her who she brought into this world.
