Happy Mother’s Day, Queens.

It’s Mother’s day today, a day where we celebrate the lovely women who carried us for a whole 9 months & those who gave birth pre-maturely; I believe we are wired to be more closer to our mothers than to our sperm-donors i.e fathers, and it’s a very good thing since most fathers have a particular phobia of parenting. A mother’s love is quite wholesome & possess a certain ability to influence what type of adult the child may one day become, not to say a father is not as important. A mother is the one who struggles with the child from the point of conception, to the labor ward where she pushes a very big-headed miracle, dealing with shit every day for years, to feeling much of the pain as she kicks your ass.

There’s is nothing a mother won’t do to make sure you are well looked after, that’s why we should value our mothers.Yes, they tend to be a little overprotective and totally controlling; but let’s face it, you would do the same to make sure your creation isn’t destroyed, so give them a break and try to please their needs; that’s the least you can do for such a special lady.

To those Khumbula Ekhaya motherless kids, don’t worry because mother nature is there to look after you, to every mother with a homosexual or disabled child, and loving them without caring about societal pressures… You have a reason to be proud of yourselves, to every adoptive mother who is not doing it for the state grant, thank you for sharing your love. Young mothers, I know it may seem early but you can do it; you are halfway there.Lastly, to every mother you are the greatest; we adore you more than anything, Queens.
