What it means to be One

You may have already heard this but being a mother is one full-time job that will put you through all the pains, tiredness, long standing hours, limitless worries and various ranges of emotions. It is one job that does not define any boundary, it does not say when it starts or when it ends. It just goes on and on. But while it makes you ache and hurt in places you never realized you have, it is one job that allows you to learn much, not just about the fellow and the life that you brought into the world but about the character, strength and convictions that you have built within yourself. It allows you to correct all wrong and perpetuate all things good in life. The values you hold will be exhibited in every smile, smirk, tantrum, embrace and tear that your little one will shed or cause. Given all these troubles, some may claim that being a mother is the best. Honestly, I can't say that becoming a mother is the highlight of every woman's life. For me, it simply became my life. It was what concluded everything I have learned and it is what showed me of the realities of how difficult but rewarding life can be despite and in spite of all the trials and blessings that have come my way.
