RE: Happy Mother's Day! What is the Greatest Act of Motherly Love that You Have Ever Experienced?
You are who you are today because of them. Happy Mothers day to every mother. Unfortunately my mother was a waste of space
Forgive your mother, some unfortunate incident made her that way. Forgiving her may not change her, but it will most definitely change you. Forgiveness releases the anguish you hold inside. It breaks the chains of resentment and anger. Break free! let them fall to the ground. Forgiveness is freedom, it allows you to move forward happily .
To all Mothers, oh Happy Day 😊
This post really did hit home. Over the years my mom has done some very hateful things but I am learning to live and let go. I still message her weekly just to drop a line and say hello. Forgiving her is a everyday process because there is always something new that does arise. It is a difficult journery but my lesson is to not let it get me down and make me bitter towards my own children. The relationship between my mother and I has taught me how to be a mother and how not to be a mother. I love her for that reason and I am thankful for the lessons that I have learned because I have become a better mother because of it all. Thank you all for reading and Happy Mothers Day to all the Mommy's :)
I know not everyone is blessed with a good mother. I hope that you had someone one in your life who fulfilled the role your mother should have. But from what I know, you learned how not to be a mother from yours... because you go out of your way to treat your children (and other people's children) the way you deserved to be treated.
Happy Mother's day to you.
I will share a story of motherly love that involves you...

That's so kind of you. I look back and think my mother taught me how not to be a mother.
I have learned how not to be a teacher from some bad ones. Sometimes it helps to be able to say, "I'll just do the opposite of what they did".
You are clearly doing the opposite of what your mother did.
I am and it seems to be working. I never want to be like her
No matter how you got here, your kids are lucky to have you today!
Thank you now can someone tell them
LOL. They will figure it out by the time they are 30... or have their own kids.
I hope so, there both totally against having kids.... unfortunately
oh no!
I am sorry that you feel that way. It is a bitter and sweet type of thing, the relationship between mother and child. Maybe you can take the experiences you had and look at the lessons that you did learn out of it all. I didn't have the best relationship with my mother but I am thankful for what I did go through with her. It taught me a lot about how to carry myself as a woman and how to be selfless rather than being selfish towards my own children. Growing up, I had a sense of hate but I have finally gotten to the point of forgiveness and understanding of the the lessons of life and how they will come to you.
