Mama

I was inspired to write this because of the movie The Black Swan. I bet it became an eye opener or should I say a reminder that we should not leave values and the things that our mom taught and trained us. I've noticed the difference between the old and the most recent speech of the awardees of the Oscars' 83rd Academy Award winners hosted by James Franco(127 hours) and Anne Hathaway(love and the other drugs). Almost all of them addressed their gratitude to their moms. I even remember Anne Hathaway paved way to her mama. I told my siblings not to watch it without our mom coz it's kinda hard to contain what (Nina Sayers)The Swan Queen and Best Actress Natalie Portman did to herself and her mom.

I call my mom Mama, ma, muma, mudra, and sometimes mudrax. As the Word says Obey your father and mother in the Lord for this is right. I'm just an ordinary daughter who didn't follow parents. I sometimes insists to my mom what I know was right. We had a lot of altercations. But I would not trade her to anyone's mom. I love her not because she's there when I fail, not because she is a silent operator(she made way to fix most of my problems without my knowledge), not because she loves me and nags at me when I did wrong, but because she  is the one that God gave me. I didn't promise her that I will be the best daughter that a mom could ever dream of coz I know nobody could ever achieve it. All that she wanted for me is to grow up and to establish my life according to what is right. (not left? haha)

I'm grateful that I still have her. Are you?
