A Model for Mothers

on

Amidst the barrage of bullets and missiles, she grabbed you and fled. She fled thousands of miles, alone, to nurture you in peace. Frightened, she sacrificed her wealth, possessions and life so that you can have a chance, a chance to grow. She embraced quietly and patiently to her new surroundings in an alien’s field, never mentioning her inner thoughts so that you can have a chance, a chance to grow.

Disciplined you when necessary and praised you when attained, so that you can have a chance, a chance to grow. Nurtured you into a wiser and respectful individual with her compassionate love and never once complained. Somali mothers, if resilience was a human, this would be her. 

The world can learn a lot from this beautiful & devoted mother.

Happy International Women's Day

    Beautiful, Masha Allah. This is so true that our mothers sacrificed everything, including but not limited to, for taking us out of a turmoil place, bringing us to a peaceful lands across the globe and then worrying about for our well-being, education etc. I love Somalian mothers ❤️❤️❤️
