It's gonna be Mother's Day in two-days time. It is undeniable that 'mother' is overly glorified in all places of the world. Reams of paper and reels of films have expressed the love of a mother. To name a few... Because I said So, Freaky Friday, Erin Brockovich, Steel Magnolias... some I haven't even watched.
Shopping complexes and florists have been putting up promotions for Mother's Day cards, gifts. and bouquets. The same goes to hotels and hair saloons, offering discounts for professional manicure/pedicure, massage and culinary delights. Radios have been discussing about tributes to moms and airing mother-themed songs. And I myself am a little embarrassed to say that I haven't always been the vision of a perfect daughter when it comes to celebrating Mother's Day.
I admit that I have never done anything for Mother's Day, esp. for Mak despite my intention to do so. Don't ask me why.
But as Oprah Winfrey said "Biology is the least of what makes someone a mother." To be a mother, one needs to feel the love of a mother. Now that I have a junior, certainly I have that matronly mother feeling, yet still I find it hard to make this Sunday special to Mak.
*big sigh*
When can I get over this feeling I've been keeping. Such a struggle is unleashed within myself!
However, it's a different story when it comes to my Mak Ngah and my MIL. In fact, I just came back from the post office... sending a parcel for her birthday cum Mother's Day. I know she'll like it, as she's so fond of handbags. Hehehehe... bodek baekkk punya! :P
Anyway, to all Mums out there...
