A MOTHER’S LOVE.

The majority of us have been spoiled with one of the greatest riches in life - a mother’s love. Whether we live in a concrete jungle or the back of beyond; we have, or had, a treasure in the guidance and love from our mothers.
I wonder does the modern wife know the great power she has and the wonderful tradition she becomes part of, in becoming a mother. This in no way belittles the status and role of the father of the family. He is the backbone, the one who takes on a great responsibility to care for and guide young minds, yet the mother is the heart of the family. She is the inspiration that helps everybody to reach out and fulfill their dreams.
In our modern society we may forget the value of family life. It’s a huge responsibility to take on, becoming a parent - becoming a mother. A good role model will help.
For me, there is no better role model than our Lady. Imagine God loving us so much that He would share His Mother with us. In Lourdes - in Fatima - in Poland; in so many places all over the world.
God knows the value of true MOTHERHOOD. Do we?
