It is said, after a girl gets married she comes closer to her own mother. It is very true in my case. I now realize what it is to be a daughter-in-law, a wife (though yet to realize the feeling of motherhood) and how my mother played all roles so well. My mother is not only my mentor, my guide but my expert and my idol.
After my marriage my life has become quite poetic. Living the present, dreaming the future, I try to arrange the memories of my lost days. Many a times I am tuned with my past and lost into the memories of mischievous games, excitement of teenage and regretful mistakes. Around that time, my parents had begun to seem like Enemies to me. I could leave anything and anyone for my friends. And there came a day, when I had almost decided to run away.
Parents always know what is going in your life, no matter how much smart you think of yourself. I don't know how my father had reacted about my teen-rebellious-behavior because he would always poke my mother in private than talk to me in person. And my mother, well , she knew how to handle me. She never asked me anything, never became a detective-mother, never scolded or infringed my privacy. At home there was enough personal freedom for everyone.
I wonder how much my mother had trusted that I would discover the way she had chosen for me. Isn't it the way of God? Wait and wait more, Trust and trust more, Pray and pray more , this was my mother's way of upbringing us.
Today I am happily married, living in a joint family and playing all roles successfully. Perhaps now my parents are happy, specially my mother whom I have already hurt so much. If it were not her safe and tender handling of my strange attitude of teenage, I would not be having this beautiful future.
My mother is my First and perhaps last Expert. I want to be the same kind of Mother to my children.
I love you Mom.
P.S. By the way, since then my parents have also changed a lot. My mom who never went to parlour earlier has begun to go and in fact both mom and dad have started to color their hairs. Credit goes to me and my wedding. (Laugh out Loud :D ) Little sacrifices make a perfect happy family !
